I am bringing more 2night😈😈😈🫡🫡🫡
day 1 of #kchkshojoweek accidental kiss/ wrist grab
#kacchako sketch obviously I’m late but meh~ 🤷🏼♀️
Finally we have a female lead who calls out the unsolicited wrist grabs.
Wrist grabs have always made me side eye anyone who does it and it’s one of the things I wish would die in kdramas. Normalize consent and gentle hand holding please future writers 🙇🏻♀️
So much this!
Nothing makes me happier than when someone takes a mental step back and thinks twice before physical touch in a k-drama. Or even better, when they actually ASK to hold hands or kiss? The best love language!
Wrist grabs are considered romantic. Of course, they’re also controversial, cause they’re forceful, and possessive, and may be done without consent. For a passionate guy like Mugen...I think it’s the only way he could ever say how he feels.
He grabs her wrist at two very defining moments. After he nearly dies. And the finale of the manga.
Take Korean dramas for example.
-”The wrist grab usually happens when the hero realizes his feelings for the drama's heroine and must make a statement about them. He might grab her wrist when he realizes how much she means to him. The kdrama hero may suddenly realize his feelings because they are about to part ways. Or he may see her growing closer to his competition.”
Aesthetic: Wrist Grab
A desperate grasp by a loved one, a silent plead to not go, to not leave them. (Broken easily, gently, prying the fingers off one-by-one and turning away from the tears.)
A lunging grip to catch someone running, a grip turning tight and fierce to send them stumbling to a halt. (Broken with difficulty, with nails biting deep and clawing until it’s possible to yank the hand free.)
A calm hold by an opponent, moving past flailing weapons with ease. (Not broken - only released, after the grip constricts, tighter and tighter until the weapon drops from limp fingers with a clang.)
A furious clutch to prove a point, because a wrist is so easy to grab, so easy to wrap fingers around and squeeze. (Released after bones grind against each other, after blood stops flowing, after knees hit the ground and the pleading starts, after something cracks and the screaming begins.)
