(Hedgehog’s dilemma)

 

A metaphor about the challenges of human intimacy. It describes a situation in which a group of hedgehogs all seek to become close to one another in order to share heat during cold weather. They must remain apart, however, as they cannot avoid hurting one another with their sharp spines. Though they all share the intention of a close reciprocal relationship, this may not occur, for reasons they cannot avoid.

 

 

Former YG trainee tries to commit suicide

A 17-year-old former YG trainee reportedly attempted suicide Tuesday night by jumping off the roof of the entertainment building, injuring her spine and knees, police said.

The female, who was not identified, was transported to Gangnam Yonsei Sarang Hospital, said Seoul Metropolitan Police spokeswoman Kim Jiyoung.

The police are still investigating as there was no indication that she was pushed. The condition of the girl is still unknown and the entertainment company has not yet made an official statement regarding her case.

Chapter 7: I'm finally here to comment, and that's just... wow. A rollercoaster of a ride.
I really love all these additions of paradoxes, because I always have an interest in paradoxes. There are some which I haven't heard of yet, so they can be a part of my paradox knowledge :D FINALLY there's a fic about the cruelty of idollife! I wrote one (though it's more about popularity and sponsors) but there are seriously so many issues that idols are facing in the entertainment industry, and they're all hidden under all that deceiving glamour and happiness. I seriously feel for Dayoung, and I can just imagine how she's smiling through her pain. This reminds me... There are many idols that we see now, but do we even know how many trainees have been forced to quit the entertainment industry due to reasons like 'being too ugly', 'too fat' etc? Will we ever know that? I highly doubt so, and it pains me. Some trainees go for plastic surgery, and when it comes out wrong, they have to suffer with ruined faces for their whole lives. Some trainees go on diets and end up with eating disorders. Others debut, but suffer from depression because of hate comments and pressure from their company. Being an idol seems glamorous, but it's actually real tough. I admire all the people who have to go through this ;;

I just wish the scenes themselves would be more fleshed out (especially the moments between Donghyuck and Dayoung) so that we'll get to know them a little more before the angst hits. Because the transition from Dayoung's bubbly side to her more solemn side is a bit too abrupt imo. But I understand this is just a short chaptered fic though. I love the ending though. Dayoung may have decided that life isn't worth living for her, but it doesn't mean Donghyuck should wallow in his own misery and regret. The ending is bittersweet, in some sense. Kudos to you for delivering such a strong message in such a short piece ; u ;

Chapter 6: Aahhhh No! I really hope she survives, but if she doesn't have the will to fight to live... I honestly so worried about the outcome of this story. But I'm so excited about it at the same time.

I can't believe there's only one chapter left! =O
