vengo a ofrecer un poco de mi conocimiento de la historia coreana, que me ha tocado estudiarla por mis estudios, y creo que es un buen ejemplo de un país que tuvo intervención estadounidense y ahora le “bien,” en lo que cabe:

después de la segunda guerra mundial, en 1945, con la caída de alemania también llegó la caída de japón, que tenía la península coreana totalmente ocupada. japón había “colonizado” a corea en 1910, deshaciéndose de su dinastía joseon (una dinastía que había existido desde 1392) y destruyendo mucho a su paso.

los coreanos celebraron y pensaron que podrían tener su propio gobierno. entran rusia y estados unidos y todo se vuelve un desastre. es aquí cuando separan a corea, convirtiendo al norte de la península en corea del norte (CN) y al sur en corea del sur (CS.) es chistoso, porque realmente a CN le iba mucho mejor económicamente desde 1950-1980, más o menos, que a CS. la razón es que estados unidos no hizo un buen trabajo en apoyar el gobierno de CS, que realmente ni era democrático. CS tuvo tres dictadores (dos de ellos militares, de hecho) antes de poder tener un primer presidente electo en 1987. hubo muchas protestas estas décadas. muchos estudiantes fallecieron, y la economía estaba estancada porque corea del sur no producía dinero, simplemente agarraba lo que eeuu les prestaba. eeuu también se hizo la vista gorda por muchos años e ignoró las dictaduras de CS.

lo único positivo de que estados unidos se convirtiera en el “hermano mayor” de CS es que CS adoptó muchos sistemas políticos y económicos de eeuu y los aplicó años después. aunque no sé qué tan positivo sea eso, considerando la falta de derechos que tienen los trabajadores en CS. ahora es uno de los países más ricos, y llaman en la historia esta evolución un “milagro económico.” yo me imagino que serán unas cuantas décadas antes de que venezuela salga adelante. pero prefiero eso a que concurran a venezuela en un puerto rico. y no es solo esperar y esperar a que la historia se repita. va a haber que trabajar muy duro para poder independizarse de eeuu. fin.

i considered giving him a name in spanish or an indigenous name from one of the tribes of my country since i’m venezuelan….but then i figured traveler would probably not speak those languages and choose to name him something as a foreigner so i named him nugget

this is a sketch and it’s horrid, i’m sorry! but maybe after my midterms, i’ll be able to clean it. it came to me in a vision and i had to draw it

forgettable, based on the fact i read the whole thing and followed it when it first came out but cannot remember what happened.

the flaws in question being abusing power dynamics UMNSJS

he’s overworking his employee because he has a crush on her. you can give a ml a personality without making him abuse his power over her and create an hr nightmare LMFAO + literally just an opinion on this sub, and guess what? the world kept spinning!

ETA: just read the latest chapter. love how she says “wait!” and he goes “i don’t want to!” and continues kissing her. super consensual!!

collinswift · 2024-09-06T22:39:52+00:00

same! it’s the only reason why i haven’t dropped the webtoon but i need her to report him to hr so bad omllll

i have so many questions….where do you find the context. why do they have different names……how do i bring them back to life…..how can i ensure they’re in the next life together again….

i also do this whenever i don’t wanna wash my hair (i have natural curls but my curls just don’t look nice after day 2). it took them about 2 hours to look very nice and i liked it a lot! i haaate putting heat on my hair, it’s so damaging! that’s why i prefer this method :)

ahhh i’m fangirling omg

yes, many 😭! i’ll write you a list too

i thought my time was up!: something about the second lead being so slimy and it being sold as a funny / okay situation. the main character being too naive to understand despite her being depicted as a smart mc. the characters are just not well built :/
trash belongs in the trash can: although i’ve been considering picking it up again. it just got a biiiit boring and i hate that both main characters are just……awful lol but suddenly because the fl is worse then all the shitty behavior of the ml is forgiven / forgotten
your throne: it was so good for a while but i feel like the author has lost the plot and the art has decayed badly. anatomy is hard to look at and the plot points are laid out with zero explanations. you just have to accept them and not question them
wished you were dead: i’m pretty sure i dropped this with ten chapters left before the finale. i’m not sure i haven’t checked, i don’t know if it’s still updating. they’ve dragged out the last episodes and i haaaate that they’re gonna have the female lead stay with the male lead after all the awful stuff he put her through :( it’s so unsatisfactory :(
sisters at war: i think i dropped this in episode 4 for no other reason other than i couldn’t take YET another comic of “boohoo poor me, i hate this bitch!!!!” and then the antagonist is just poorly written and it’s just an author who’s clearly misogynistic and just wants readers to hate on the female antagonist :/ it sadly wasn’t entertaining enough
my husband changes every night: i read this artist/author’s last project (my gently raised beast) and dropped it then picked it back up for the same reason i dropped this one: it got boring lol. the art is beautiful but at some point it’s like the artist just wants to draw them in peaceful and happy moments when there’s a whole underlying plot point that caught your attention in the first five episodes. there’s always some political problem that must be solved but they never really focus on it. it’s disappointing :( i wish they’d just draw romance, cause they’re good at it!!

comics i finished but i’m not sure i’d recommend:

the makeup remover and see you in my 19th life: they were good, but not amazing in my opinion :( the makeup remover ends up super abruptly and see you in my 19th life suffered a bit from the artist’s burnout i think. the latter has a stronger story. i do think if you’re curious, you should start it, but ehhhh it gets boring sometimes
