Zora N. Hurston, 'Their Eyes Were Watching God'

Happy valentine's day w Hyunsik :3

i think sang-hun from karma/악연 is just the sangihun lovechild

the unfortunate thing about the second season being 10 months into the future is that we'll never see a bit where javadi gets to private investigator levels of nosy about why santos and whitaker are Like That and concludes they are dating. and when she tells them this, they both look at her like she's killed their childhood pets.

THE PITT -> Similarities between Dr. Trinity Santos and Dr. Frank Langdon

the pitt + text posts

no idea if netball is a thing in the us but santos rly strikes me as a netball player.. maybe soccer? but not as a consistent thing she's just really fast and enjoys running. However. boxer santos has my whole heart though im going to keep thinking of that wow ..

it might be played recreationally but, as far as i know, it's not played professionally here. this is also the first time i'm hearing of the sport.

i got the boxer idea because i doubt krav maga is the only martial art that she's into. i feel like she's dabbled in jiu-jitsu. nothing to back this up, it's just a feeling.

soccer is a solid option, i think. your remark about her enjoying running makes me imagine her doing morning runs on her days off.

i can’t stop thinking about sang-woo’s suicide attempt. more specifically, little details surrounding that.

on the floor, we see a pile of cigarettes and ash, an empty bottle of soju, a trash bag filled with wrappers of what i’m going to assume are some kind of food or beverage… and shaving cream. which means it is more likely than not that sang-woo shaved himself before his suicide attempt. (he also does look cleanly shaved as well)

further more, when calling his mother, he’s not wearing the jacket of his suit. we see him put it back on. it wasn’t a spur of the moment decision; he willingly got in the bathtub with his suit on, assuming he was going to die.

so sang-woo made sure that even in death, he looked presentable and clean. he doesn’t want to be found a mess, because he’s meant to be better than a mess, and he wants people to think highly of him, even if he’s dead.

oh, the sheer irony of his actual death being messy.

look how far we’ve come.

also, it still breaks my heart that sang-woo was never able to tell his mother he loves her. while yes, he did get interrupted by the customer, i feel he also held back because of the things that had happened.

he’d basically jeopardized his mother because of his own wrongdoings, and he hadn’t really been the son she thought he was for the past couple years. that alone feels like a betrayal on its own.

and he’s basically drowning himself in shame and guilt that maybe he’s tricked his psyche into thinking “well, if you really loved your mother, none of that shit would have happened.”
