June 4th, 1989

Today marks the 30th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre. Even though I've read about those 7 weeks of peaceful protesting for democracy year after year since I was a kid and the horrors that ended it all, today it feels different as two country’s that I have personal connections with are in flames - a war against the systems which swore to protect their liberties. 

Today, my heart is heavy. And I hope that every fucking person in power - all of these politicians and law enforcement - in this modern chaos, remembers that we look back on June 4th, 1989 as a Massacre. As a tragedy of power. 

To this day, China censors this history to the degree that generations of Chinese people today in China have never even HEARD of this Massacre. The Chinese government is already sketchy as fuck, so all I can do is hope they don’t enact martial law on Hong Kong. But if my brothers and sisters south of the border have martial law declared upon them by their goon of a president in their ALREADY DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY and their fight for BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS becomes a real civil war/a massacre, I’m going to be so. FUCKING. PISSED.

I think (and I hope) yi seo is going to get the biggest redemption arc from all of the characters. so far she’s been mean to her friends, made a transphobic comment about hyun yi and, apparently, she’ll be racist towards the new character (i’m not there yet). what i gathered so far is that she lacks a lot of self-awareness, and she doesn’t understand why her behavior is problematic. but also her mom never showed her what’s right and what’s wrong, instead, her mom congratulated her for pushing a friend in order to win a race. i think sae ro yi is a huge contrast because he is a good person and he’s doing good things because it’s the right thing to do (she’s doing good things, so far, for him). but i still think she will learn right/wrong and she will start doing things for her not to make her mom mad, or to make sae ro yi like her. it’s pretty fitting that she’s an influencer, considering how much validation she seeks from those two people. all she does is to perform, she hasn’t been completely vulnerable yet, and i’m excited to see the other side of her character. also, kim da mi is just an amazing actress and it’s kinda refreshing to see a male lead being the good inspiration for once instead of a girl changing a boy with the power of love. i hope to see yi seo changing because sae ro yi is confronting her with reality and she starts to be a better person for herself. also, i really hope that she apologizes for her racism/transphobia because she means it and not because she knows sae ro yi wants her to do so.
