Which is that I think that shit isn’t complicated enough (i.e. I get frustrated at dystopian young adult novels and Korean dramas for having trite and template storylines) but then as my own life gets more complicated and meaningless, I desperately crave simplistic narratives again. Though I usually have a very terrible time when it comes to horror movies, thrillers, or anything remotely violent (i.e. sucking in breath, covering my eyes, turning away, seeking comfort in someone’s shoulder) I did really fine this past winter break even as I watched two seasons of Gyeongseong Creature and two seasons (almost) of Reaper. I don’t feel capable of sowing chaos in my imagination without it bleeding into my reality, but it feels like a step in that direction.
