Welcome under the Umbrella!

Han Sujeong

Born on 17 April 2001 in Seoul Originally from Seoul High school student and part-time sales associate

a creature of comfort, too preoccupied with the idea of herself as charmingly indolent to pay any close attention to the rapidly enclosing future. it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t let it matter, is what she tells herself

a carefully curated image to contrast the carefree attitude: temperamental and harsh, but generous to a fault and far warmer than she lets on. suppose she had no choice but to be, if nothing else, at least socially competitive

the han family has been teetering on the edge of high society for some time now. leave it to sujeong to stir some untimely discourse, pitting her brothers against each other and against her parents in the discussion of whether she’s truly worth supporting at this point. very uplifting, as you can imagine

really, she just wants to exist. it’s summer, it’s seoul — everything should be easy, and sujeong believes it’s all but owed to her at this point. her entire life has been cramped and daunting, rushed and dragged out, and too much or too little. she wants just enough, just what’s right in the moment and nothing more

lobbies, foyers, and waiting rooms are completely invented spaces that serve no purpose but to a) be intermediary b) contain air and people, and optional c) politicize that air

disgust sinking at a cruising altitude of 11 kilometers b/c

the asshole sitting in front is leaning so far back your face is an inch away from the monitor

miss breathy sitting adjacent is oversharing body odor and last week’s woes with you

the toddler sitting behind wails and kicks you into everything but an alternate dimension

holy shit…

xiaoxiao xu, aeronautics in the backyard

“all over china, individual farmers started building their own designs of airplanes, most of the time working out of their own backyards. not every design is equally successful. some of these amateur planes are very dangerous and hardly functioning, yet some designs work so well that they get recognized by the professional market. either way, this is not the main goal for these aeronauts. they are not in it for the money, they simply build in search of new alternatives; cheaper, lighter, stranger and better ways to fly.”

this is the week you’re joining the fucking ensemble, ellen GET IT TOGETHER, ELLEN

dream, 11/26/17

ed sheeran is my boyfriend and we’re sitting cross-legged sipping on two mugs of over-steeped tea. he’s got a full-length beard and i swear to god there’s a bird making a nest in there because it’s MOVING as he flexes nonstop about his platinum sales or whatever. absolute fucking nightmare

Choi Sungjin

Born on 29 September 1994 in Seoul Originally from Seoul Korean language teacher

The mama’s boy whose good-for-nothing father left for another woman, for another family. He’s raised by internalizing his mother’s bitterness as his own, her words meshing with his very thoughts until he’s not sure they’re his or hers anymore. Choi Hyewon is set on making him an honest man, one that will make her proud. So she holds him with an iron grip. So he studies, studies, spends his youth studying and clinging to his mother’s legs until he’s admitted into one of the most prestigious universities in South Korea, graduates with honors and makes her proud. But it’s endless. Barely enough. The more time passes by, the stronger her grip around him becomes–and by now, it’s just a matter of time before Sungjin finally snaps. Moving out was the first step.

Song Yanjie

Born on 16 September 1998 in Taipei Originally from nowhere University student and pet groomer

yanjie likes numbers. 1 + 1 + 1 = 3: they’re the only constant he knows amongst all the routinely change (ooh, an oxymoron!). there is no confusion between two in japan and two in london. not like the difference between 計程車 in taipei and 出租车 in beijing when no one understands you if you switch between the two in their respective countries and all you’re trying to do is call for a damn taxi.

five is five is five is five – but yanjie is not yanjie when people can’t place him in any of their categories that all leave him feeling strangely disembodied.

after all, it’s a little hard to break it down for them when who are you? doesn’t have a good (any) answer.

Shin Haesun

Born on 24 April 1983 in Gwangju Originally from Gwangju Interior designer

Everything you know about love, you learn from your parents.  

So here’s what you learn:

When Mommy and Daddy don’t sleep in the same rooms, it’s not because “the bed isn’t big enough”.  (How the fuck did you even fall for that?)

Mommy doesn’t give a shit about the family.  Maybe that’s why she throws everything away just to jump at the chance for someone new.  Too bad you’re the sole witness.  Too bad she thinks she’s got everything under control.  

She doesn’t.

But you do.

[umbrellakrp]

do you do rolling or fixed acceptances?

Go Roeun

Born on 26 December 1996 in Busan Originally from Seoul Bartender and university student

full disclosure: you are not a nice girl. you have never been a nice girl. there is no tragic backstories, no redemption arcs, no particular trigger that explains why you are the way you are. you, go roeun, has never carried a genuine word into your father’s church in your life. funny, since you’ve been there all your life.

you, are rotted. you, are ordinary. you, are crude.

high school, you are the snake’s head. lady gorgon and her underlings. her venom, her claws. your friends are not your friends. mere vultures feasting on the spoils of your reign. you, roeun, you are someone’s nightmare. someone’s trigger. someone’s terror.

high school, you are in deep shit. (you are too much. you are too wicked. you are the head of this. you are at fault. yeah. yeah. you say. that’s me. i know. i fucking know.)

after, you are redeemed? redeemed? no. yeah. no. you are in hiding, wolf in sheep’s clothing. you bear the smiles, the stuffy fits, the abhorrent shoes. you do this all to avoid any more hail marys. you bear the moniker, brush up on academics, get into college a whole city away from home.

get a job somewhere easy soon. your art degree, it’s useless, it’s whatever. dad has properties to sell once he kicks the bucket. you just have to wait.

and wait.

and wait.

and keep your goddamn mouth shut. i know, okay. i fucking know.

if nobody allowed you to do "remixing" or "parodying" it's still stealing lol.

Sydney Gun

Born on 17 October 1996 in Los Angeles Originally from Los Angeles Barista and intern at Seoul Metropolitan Government

you have one voicemail from sydney 💕

hi mom, it’s sydney! sorry for calling you so late ( a pause as she considers the time ) orrrrr so early i guess? you’re probably at work right now aren’t you? anyways, sorry for not picking up your calls lately! i’ve just been suuuuper busy with work and my internship but i’ve been good so i can’t complain. i mean, my job’s pretty chill and my supervisor for the internship seems cool so there’s that. i haven’t been doing too much though, mainly busy work, but that’s fine, i just need more things on my resume and having a government internship is going to look really good when i apply to grad school later.

by the way, i don’t think i’m going to come home until after my internship is over but i promise our plans won’t be ruined! it’s not summer until i’ve been to malibu at least once, ya know? ( she lets out a quiet laugh before silence descends as she considers whether or not to bring up the whole purpose of her call ) also, are you, um, you know… coming here for dad’s death anniversary? it’s just been so long and i … ( she trails off with a wistful sigh, already half-resigned with the answer she knows she’ll receive tomorrow morning )but, uh, i know you have work though so it’s cool if you can’t.

i hope you’ve been doing well by the way. i miss you a lot. ( the tenderness and love bleeds through even thousands of miles away ) anyways, i’m probably gonna go to bed soon so good night! i hope you have a good day today and i love you lots.

Just because someone did something you don’t like doesn’t give you a right to literally steal from them.
