Girlboss Yoo Sangah Is Such A Terrifying Concept To Me. Do Not Get Me Wrong Yoo Sangah Is A Very Powerful

girlboss yoo sangah is such a terrifying concept to me. do not get me wrong yoo sangah is a very powerful and capable and independent woman in ways that can appear to overlap with the girlboss archetype. but then its ignored where these traits come from!!

yoo sangah has had to be very self sufficient and 'powerful' her whole life because the alternative has always been catastrophic. for example becoming a house wife like her parents want vs girlbossing at a job where she gets harrassed and treated like shit, or dying in the apocalypse vs being useful to kimcom at the cost of her health (<- not necessarily actual dichotomies but the ones she believes in). and thus she ends up self-reliant in a way that leads to her having to endure a lot!! whether it's her trying to shrug off han myungoh's sexist comments or take on the weight of probability for kimcom. and we see that maybe these dichotomies she seems to live in are not so helpful, and maybe the idea that she does not need to be the #girlboss handling everything would be beneficial.

because she's just a person!! she's not uniquely capable or intelligent or even kind - not to a higher extent than any other woman in your workplace, at least. not beyond the realm of belief. which is the point! girlboss yoo sangah is almost kim dokja's vision of her - a perfect version who never falters where others would, who can reign in the boys and keep everything on track with a flick of a wrist and a smile - and theres a reason that version of her gets explicitly deconstructed

a character without flaws isnt a character worth thinking about, which is why to strip yoo sangah of her flaws is to strip her of anything interesting. the heroine can and will falter, she will be petty and weak and tired, and yoo sangah is devoted to showing us that. so i wish there was more content that explored that side of her

A series of square black and white fanarts for Omniscient reader's viewpoint, each with text on it, that together make up a single monologue.
"My worl is reserved for small spaces".
A largely empty frame with only Kim Dokja sitting in its lower half in his office suit. He seems calm.

"A small apartment".
Frame's borders form an indent in a shape of Kim Dokja's silhouette. The shot itself shows a view of a not lived in apartment from the top down view. It barely has anything in it aside from a table with a chair, a bed and a bag next to it.

"A meeting room".
Same indent in the border, now the silhouette of Kim Dokja looking down. In front of him is his mother, Lee Sookyung, behind a glass, with her head hanging low and obscured by the light on the glass.

"A bookshelf".
Same indent, but now Kim Dokja is reaching out towatds an empty spot among many books sitting on the shelves. The shelves curl around his silhouette.

"A phone".
An indent in shape of a hand reaching towards a charging phone. It has a charm hanging on it in shape of a sword - it's Umbroken Faith.

"A novel".
A close up on a phone screen held by a hand that is still an indent in the frame. The text on the screen is unreadable aside from the the words "a novel", as if censored.

"Now that the small space turned itself inside out".
A shot of Kim Dokja during the first scenario, with Yoo Sangah and Lee Gilyoung next to him. He is fully visible now, but his expression is unclear with no mouth drawn - just big dark eyes staring at the system screen in front of him. Yoo Sangah looks shocked and Lee Gilyoung is, in turn, staring at Kim Dokja.

"I can only keep retreating".
Kim Dokja is back to beeing an indent in the frame, but now clearly as a Demon king of salvation. He sits at the top of the frame, looming over his companions with a theatrically spread arms and wings. At the bottom of the art are devastated Yoo Joonghyuk, Han Sooyoung and Shin Yoosung.

"To the comfort of a small space".
There's a spherical indent in the border of the frame, forming the barrier of Oldest Dream, who is hugging his knees, floating in a starry sky. None of his features are visible though, he is covered in papier-mâché, like a protective layer or a shell.
On the top, rotated by 180 degrees, are Yoo Joonghyuk and Han Sooyoung, both looking tired. Yoo Joonghyuk is wearing a space suit with child's hands behind him holding his helmet. Han Sooyoung is biting at the frame of her glasses with a stack of papers in her hands, a child's hand behind her is holding a pen, reaching over her shoulder to change something.

"A cocoon i will never burst out of".
At the top of a fading frame, there's an open book. Out of it pages are falling, along with a broken papier-mâché shell, two masks - of comedy and tragedy - and Kim Dokja, broken into several pieces of himself, each slightly different stage of his story. Under him there are many hands of his companions, reaching up in an attempt to catch his falling body.

I feel like a reverse svsss cumplane dynamic would be Shen Yuan writing something that seems like it's going to be so horny but then it diverts at the last second to be actually discussing the local monstrous wildlife, while Airplane is leaving screaming comments about how he's being edged by this bullshit.

Airplane: PLEASE, JUST MAKE THEM FUCK! I'M LITERALLY BEGGING YOU HERE, I'M ON MY HANDS AND KNEES!

Shen Yuan: get your mind out of the gutter! This is normal stuff, not everything has to lead to papapa

Airplane: DEMON COWGIRLS THAT STIMULATE THE ECONOMY WITH THEIR BREAST MILK IS NOT NORMAL

Lately i can't stop thinking about shen yuan botched transmigration into pidw.. it's too late in the novel, shen qingqiu arc ended LONG ago and bingge has a harem, so with no body to take over, he just lingers around bingge as a ghost.

Binghe slashing at him with xin mo: what wretched spirit are you!?

Shen yuan floating above the emperors throne: I don't want to be here either!

No one else can see or hear shen yuan, and sy is bound to stay close to binghe. Eventually binghe sees that shen yuan is always praising him and warning him against attacks and giving him important information

Binghe: I see your purpose now, though this lord still does not understand why the heavens bestowed a helper who resembles a ... male whore

Shen yuan bashfully pulling down his shorts to cover more of his thigh: i-i can't help it if this is what I died in!
