i'm so sorry for the late reply i got too anxious/embarrassed and refused to look at my laptop for the rest of the day after posting LOL
thank you so much for reading what i had to say and for your kind words, it really means a lot to me ㅠㅠ.... it's comforting and inspiring to know that there are other people who have/had the same mindset and were able to persevere. a lot of what you just said resonated with me and i'm really so happy that it seems like you've found balance and peace in your life (or at least are on the path to doing so ! we can walk it together ^^). you're also very right about remembering to treat ourselves kindly and i'm grateful for the reminder. it's easy to neglect your wants and needs when you're so focused on something else, but i'm hoping with time such habits will be able to be broken. i hope that you will also always have a support system to make sure you're okay as well ... i know we are only strangers but i'm cheering for you on the other side of the screen ! fighting ^_^
ahhhh i thought you might be korean too!! 한국어를 할 줄 아세요? seeing what you said , i think you wrote beisel perfectly for what impression you wanted to give! she's a bit mischievous like a younger sibling but also very caring and doting in the same way a '누나/언니 figure' can be. her differing sides of chivalrous and teasing are very cute and endearing, she's probably my favorite of the main cast !! speaking of siblings, beileph also felt very strongly like an older brother/male figure... he reminded me of some of my relatives HAHA a bit awkward and focused on work/studies but you can tell he puts in effort for those he cares about and has a warm heart. you say you're not culturally korean but you totally captured the vibe of a korean office worker so you still win there ! LOL
i completely agree with what you say about 저고리 as well!! i often see traditional clothing like hanfu and kimono in designs, but almost never any 한복/hanbok... so when i saw beisel i was truly clutching my heart!!!
THANK YOU FOR THE COMPLIMENT;;;; I'M VERY GRATEFUL ! ! ! HAPPY HOLIDAYS ^^
