First of all, the intense competition
The focus on studying as the only path to success feels frustrating
I hate how people pressure others based on their age
The constant comparisons with others are annoying
Hearing judgement of others’ looks gets tiresome
People with a little bit of power tend to abuse it
The gaslighting among people is ridiculous
I hate the envy towards those who are more successful and ignoring those who aren’tÂ
There are just too many people draining my energy
I think that these had led me to gradually reduce my social interactions
1. But seriously, just reading this post is suffocating. The people in our country must have amazing mental strength
2. Agree, living in Hell-Joseon is too difficult. Living is suffocating
3. Seriously, there are more than a few people here who take extreme choices if you break up with them. The only thing I like about being born here is that I share the same country as my bias… Other than that, not much
4. What sin did I commit in my previous life to be born as a woman here?
5. It seems like the remaining issues are the downsides of capitalism and Confucianism. I think it’s a good idea to study foreign languages diligently and find a way to escape
6. In a country where rental fraud is rampant and buying a home is nearly impossible
7. I f*cking agree with reducing my social interactions
8. This is depressing. That’s why people are so heartless
9. That’s right… That’s why I’m also trying to leave Korea…
10. I did all my university studies in Korea but I came out and am attending university overseas again. I’m just so happy and I like it so muchÂ
