Distorted

Description

Jimin wakes up one morning and sees himself hideously deformed in the mirror. It’s right before the start of high school and he dreads the scrutinizing looks he will be met with.

Foreword

After watching the press conference on the #LoveYourself project BTS has with Unicef, I kinda wanted to write a story like this. Hope you enjoy reading and please let me know what you thought of it. :D

Chapter 3: This was absolutely beautiful, like seriously, I laughed so much and cried a lot too, just Jimin's situation was pretty imapactful and his journey to self love was amazing! Thank you so much for writing this! I swear everytime I read on of you stories the realness of it all just gets me so much! From told you ugly or worthless so much it can definitely get to a person to the point where it can become true and all that they can see and not everyone has friends like Jimin who can help them through it, and when he didn't believe his parents in the beginning is was something anyone would probably do just cause in your eyes and head even when you feel down and ugly and your parents say you're not it just seems like that have to say that since they are your parents but when you befriend nice strangers becoming friends and they tell you you are worthy of everything and that you are special and beautiful you take it differently slowly but surely and I love that you wrote the so much, thank you!!!

Chapter 3: There's no doubt that you're an amazing writer, but of all your stories this one is the proof that you have what makes writers good writers. You offered an analysis of one problem of our society and you built a story, sometimes rough in it's themes developed, but optimistic in it's message. You totally got BTS' message and you created a lovely modern fairy tale, Kafka's influenced I guess, that I think BTS themselves would be pleased to read.
Once again thank you for your stories and espacially this one! I hope you write for 10 more years, or a hundred ;)

Chapter 3: This was beautiful. I love how well you portrayed body dismorphia without even realizing. It's really nice when you cover subjects like these because the result is something really deep, encouraging and inspirational.

Chapter 3: I almost quoted you for what Jimin said about babies being wiser than adults because they know they are supposed to be loved than the opposite. I am also in a continuous process of learning to love myself and to learn treat myself better psychologically. I grew up with the word ugly thrown in my face, but my real problem was growing up with a curved spine and weak bones (I think they're stronger now, I'm glad). And yeah, my spine surgery in 2015 was a big turn in my life and from then on I have been slowly trying to love myself more. I know my method in that involves wearing make up and nice clothes, but it really takes effort to finally lift my gaze up and stand tall. Now I have friends telling me I'm pretty (though nah, but yeah just like Jimin did, I allowed myself to believe that) and I cried listening to p!nk's 'perfect' when a friend told me to. So yeah, a lot of emotions stirred reading this story, and it's my favourite genre tbh, and the characters were perfect so it was really a perfect story. I'm really thankful for the life advice in it. #LoveYourself #LoveMyself #ENDviolence

Chapter 4: #ENDviolence lol i love that hastag
this story is a bit different that your usual story because damn - it's deep. it talks about self issues, friendship, self confidence, conflict in self, 50 laps of marathon and i think that's pretty much describe deep lol
and i hated it when someone was a bit different than the others, like...how they dressed up or how they presented themselves always determined whether they belong or not in the society and that gives the society to judge people like that - like wut? nahh you can't do that, darling...let them be them and let you be you because if people keep doing that, tearing others apart and all, the victim won't see themselves as themselves anymore and they would be bitter and angry (like jimin) and tried very hard to please the society and in the end, lose themselves in the process.
what they trying to create by following this supposed called 'perfect' is just a reflection of the sick society and their standards and not themselves.
wait - what are we talking about? right this story XDD
anyway, i'm glad that jimin and tae got yoongi and jungkook to be there for them and managed to slap the outta those brats.
so what if you're annoying? sometimes being annoying can be bad ya know because just imagine....someone with anxiety or something and was too shy to get friends and always alone and there was this person who was annoying as but was always there for him and helped him get a friend and - that's beautiful
wait - i'm getting off topic again lol
you have to get used to me ranting like this because i'm hella excited for stories like this
anyway, i really love it and i think i love this a bit more than your other story lol don't be mad XDD
i really enjoyed it and keep up the good work, i'll see you in your next story muahh
