up uP UP!!!

Now I have two Kpop songs to describe the stages of a bubble industry:

  1. Golden, mostly just for the chorus
  2. Bubble pop

This list would be a lot better if I actually listened to Kpop, but I don’t, so it’s not.

    not to out myself as someone who takes family movies all too seriously but while it's relevant: i thought the plot was kinda weird. the whole movie kinda ...

    spoilers for major plot points of kpop demon hunters...sets up mortals-turned-demons as being those who did terrible things and hold guilt/shame for those actions through Jinu with him betraying his family and all. but then Rumi feels guilt/shame for being half-demon because... ??? demons bad? like either demonhood is a metaphorical manifestation of one's guilty conscience, or it's just evil purple people disease, but either way Rumi's motivations make no sense. she doesn't have any big mistakes or regrets in her life as far as we know. we can see she has learned to feel shame about her half-demonhood from Celine, but neither Rumi nor we as the audience actually get any real reason to understand why. it's like a dangling metaphor.

    The whole thing has a vaguely ex-catholic vibe where sin is simultaneously the result of evil actions on earth and also something that's inherently part of your soul as a human being because dumb woman ate an apple. As someone who was raised in the church to a degree it never felt unreal and actually resonated pretty hard, but also yeah it doesn't make a lot of sense logically.
