The Grudge 2

2006

[solfirafira]

A few days ago, I was in the kitchen making my way through some pancakes I made for breakfast when my mother came sauntering down the stairs with her open laptop propped up on her arm, clearly with the intention to show me something she had come across on Youtube. Placing the laptop on the table, she clicked the play button and we started to watch the video linked above. She wanted to see what I thought of it, saying "Hey look at Edison Chen scold this interviewer lady." I took another bite of my pancake.

What has he done this time?

For context, this is not the first time I'd heard of Edison. Born and raised in America, he was scouted and soon became a well-known actor in Hong Kong. Later, he was embroiled in scandal when he became the victim of a major photo leak that involved NSFW photos of many well-known Hong Kong actresses and made international news, shortly followed by yet another photo leak that involved a 16-year-old model. Later, I learned that he had moved back to America to start his own luxury clothing brand. Safe to say that when his name pops up, the first thing I think of is the scandal.

As I watched the video, I was expecting to immediately side with the interviewer. But as the video progressed, I found myself empathizing with Edison, understanding the perspectives of both parties, and found it a fascinating example of a bigger issue that Edison touches on in the video.

As evidenced with the advent of AI being explored in all aspects of the Art industry (traditional & digital art, writing, music, film, etc.), the discourse surrounding the topic of whether society as a whole respects Art and the making of Art when it can be easily automated with the click of a button has resurfaced and is calling a lot of what people believe about Art into question.

To be clear, by Art what I mean is the expression of the self. The part that has something they want to say, so they pick their medium of choice and use that as a channel for their thoughts and feelings. That's the Making of the Art, and then there's the Marketing and Distribution of the Art if they so choose to want to share it with others, and then there's the Consumption of the Art which is ultimately out of the creator's control but has the potential to become a spark of inspiration for other creators to start their own cycle of Art. This is the basic process of how Art travels from the brain of the creator to the brain of the public. It's clear that in the context of the video, the product they're trying to promote is part of the Making process, while the interview is a part of the Marketing process. Simple, right?

But hold on a second, why is Edison so heated? He doesn't even look like he wants to be there. The clash, I believe, lies at the crossroads of the Making of the Art and the Consumption of Art. Here we have an artist who has put a lot of heart, time, and effort in creating this Art, who now wants to Market their Art to their target audience, only to be faced with an interviewer who can be considered a passive consumer at best, and also unfortunately caught not having done her due diligence.

As an artist, the Making of the Art is almost a sacred process. Everyone has their own way of going about it, and a lot of the time it's a lot of blood, sweat and tears poured into this piece of work. There's a piece of our Selves that is included in the work. On the other hand, Consumption of Art can be a rather passive process from the perspective of the "normie" because obviously we're not talking about the people who vibe with the art, the active consumers who may take it as a direct representation of their identity. We're talking about someone who probably was told a few days prior that she would be interviewing this guest, probably had decent past experience interviewing guests in general, but was unexpectedly taken out of her element when asked to go off-script.

This disconnect is a fascinating phenomenon to witness when both parties are simultanously having separate realizations at once. That when the Creator moves out of the Making of the Art stage, they are effectively relinquishing control of how it is consumed, that regardless of the blood, sweat and tears poured into a piece of work, there will always be a gap between the Creator and the Consumer and that's okay. That for the Interviewer, she is immediately faced with the responsibility of the position she's put herself in, the expectations that guests expect from her professionally, faced with someone who wants to speak and connect with her as a person, not as the interviewer who has cards to follow and a strict schedule to adhere to.

At the end of the day, I don't hold it against Edison for the things he said in this video. I do think he could have exercised some self-control and held back on a portion of it as it seemed he kept going once the main point was made, but otherwise it wasn't uncalled for as he did still stay in his seat when there was always the option to walk out. As for the Interviewer, I hope she's learned her lesson in making sure she does her due diligence prior to interviewing guests. Their time is precious, her time is precious, the entire staff and camera crew's time is precious, and it was all essentially wasted on what could have been a way to connect as humans and make art.

When the video ended and my mother and I had nothing left to comment on, she headed back upstairs with the laptop, presumably to continue watching one of her many chinese dramas that she has on rotation. I, on the other hand, realized I had made one too many pancakes and left the remainder on the table for my father to find when he wakes up as I headed back to my room.

CLOT x THE NORTH FACE COLORED BY NATURE

CLOT is pleased to announce its first collaboration with the world-renowned outdoor sportswear expert The North Face. Seeing outdoor exploration as our dialogue with Mother Earth, the brands take us through the mountains and towards the misty peaks, introducing a collection that brings together elements of nature and stylistic aesthetics that aim to add colors to your journey.

“The core person that I am, it hasn't really changed over time, but my curiosities have, what gives me a successful feeling has. My mindset is actually exploration. Allowing yourself to see new things, allowing yourself to experience with clouds, sunset and sunrises, is a story that I've never told. I feel like The North Face was the perfect conduit for that story to be expressed,” shared Edison Chen, Founder and Creative Director of CLOT.

Reshaping outdoor wear with eminent style, the collaboration delivers a perfect combination of design and functionality. Nature-inspired elements encountered along the journey are translated through colors with hints of oriental charm, topped with technologically enhanced materials and creative layering ideas for maximized practicality. Edison Chen has also invited fashion designer Kazuki Kuraishi to participate in the project, integrating his unique fashion understanding into The North Face's outdoor pieces, creating more possibilities for outdoor wear.

“When I design, I normally think about the details first. I don't think too much about the concept, but Edison does. That's why we work together. I always think of good design as it is, but even beautiful design needs good function,” explained Kazuki Kuraishi, Fashion Designer.

EXPLORE THE COLORS OF NATURE,

FROM THE MOUNTAINS TO THE SEA AND THE CLOUDS

Taking in the beautiful colors of nature while trekking through the mountains, The North Face and CLOT have put together a collection featuring captivating landscapes and sensual gradients. This new collaboration features a breathtaking sea of clouds above mountaintops, along with natural shades of lunar slate to lupine, reef waters, and macchiato for a unique aesthetic.

Thanks to DRYVENT technology, the CLOT x The North Face Shell Jacket features an all-over cloud print, topped with color-blocking sleeves and side seams to create a stylish outdoor look. Meanwhile, the new waterproof Poncho can be adjusted with the hidden buttons on the hem, ensuring a perfect fit. In addition to outerwear, the extensive The CLOT x The North Face collection also includes Fleece Pullovers in different colorways, each with a detachable hood and Chinese button knots signature to CLOT. Wear it with the matching Fleece Pants for extra warmth and comfort. Crafted from translucent materials, the Shell Pullover comes with a detachable hood and diagonal placket, designed for laying over the Fleece Pullover. All jackets can be styled with translucent Shell Pants or Fleece Pants for a solid look.

PERFECT YOUR LOOK

WITH ACCESSORIES OF COLORS

Discover the hidden gems in the mountains and cherish every moment. CLOT and The North Face have expanded their creative offerings to a range of accessories and footwear, so you can coordinate your outfits from head to toe. With a mesmerizing sea of clouds print, the Camping Blanket is made of heat-retaining fabric to protect against sudden temperature changes. Thanks to The North Face’s patented VECTIV™ and FUTURELIGHT™ waterproof technology, along with the high-traction SurfaceCTRL™ outsole, the VECTIV™ TARAVAL hiking shoe can provide exceptional stability and drive on any terrain. The collection also includes the ThermoBall™ Traction Mules and other outdoor-dedicated footwear, creating more possibilities for all kinds of exploration.

SPICE UP FAMILY TRAVEL WITH

CHILDRENSWEAR COLORED BY NATURE

The CLOT x The North Face collection also debuts with childrenswear, offering more options to fashion and outdoor-loving families. From Shell Jackets to Fleece Pullovers and Fleece Pants, these children's dedicated creations present little explorers with a piece of the ingenious design and care of the collection.

The CLOT x The North Face collection is set to pre-release at select JUICE selling doors on February 23, 2023, opening a new chapter in the combination of artistic expression and outdoor functionality.

[nikkotinamide]

my observations and take on some nuances not conveyed in translation

my drawn out summary part 2!

*Disclaimer: I'm not critiquing existing translations, I think the translators have done a phenomenal job! Just wanted to add my 2 cents worth.

Part 1

Language Use in Kiseki

Ep 4 Cont

More tears. This scene hurts so bad. Ai Di actually says "Blind or what? Having followed him for so long, it's not as though unaware of whom he likes..." It's difficult to translate these lines because there are no first person pronouns used. On one hand, it's Ai Di scolding himself for holding on to his unrequited feelings for Chen Yi (seen in the translation above). On the other hand, he is also scolding Chen Yi for the same thing with regards to CDY.

Ep 5

Time for some comedy to soothe the angst. Our boy really went to school punning and naming himself Edison (and I think the intent was with Thomas Edison in mind lmao).

Ep 8

There's so much we don't know about Ai Di. Here Chen Yi actually asks if Ai Di wants to return to school. Coupled with how Ai Di deflected and told him to stop joking around, and how he told Zong Yi he doesn't need to attend school because he's a genius, it suggests that Ai Di has some regrets about not having the normal life peers his age lead.

Ep 9 💔

This was the most heartbreaking scene imo. Here Ai Di says "你再怎么喜欢他，你再怎么努力，他看的永远不会是你。" - "No matter how much you like him, no matter how hard you try, the one he looks at will forever not be you." While it's clear it's directed at Chen Yi, to a degree it's also Ai Di directing it at himself.

He goes on to say "会看着你的他妈只有我。" 他妈 is a vulgarity (essentially meant to insult someone's mother) which the subtitles and translation have censored, and this line translates into "The only fucking person who will look at you is me."

Let's make it angstier. Ai Di says "只有我，从小看到大。我蠢，我猪。", which has been translated into "Only I, for all my life...I'm such a stupid fool". The translation is fine but it doesn't reflect just how vulnerable Ai Di was in this moment, as though he heart was breaking right alongside Chen Yi’s. My translation would be "Only I, since I was young till now when I am old, have been looking at you. I'm naive. I'm foolish."

This is the line that has made me tear every single rewatch. Ai Di isn't stupid but he is aware that he is being foolish, chasing so desperately all his life after someone who doesn't see him as anything more than a brother .

Ai Di regrets and he says "这件事我帮你扛，抵昨天晚上的事情行吧。我说行就行。" which has been translated into "I'll take the blame for you to make up for what I did to you last night. It's a deal." I felt it was more of a resigned question Ai Di poses, "I'll carry the blame for you, to make up for yesterday night's affair, alright? If I say that's fine, then it's fine."

I was surprised to see this! Here, because Ai Di will not follow willingly, Chen Yi picks him up, and he purposely steps over the pot of burning coal on Ai Di's behalf. I'm not too sure if it's a Chinese thing or religion thing, but in my home country, some Chinese (esp the older folks) say that upon returning home after incarceration, one has to step over burning coal to wash away the bad luck. Very neat that they included this custom!

The same thing Ai Di tells Zong Yi not to say "再见" - see you again; they wouldn’t want to see prison again (which has been translated into goodbye).

This is why people think ChenAi switch, also courtesy of Hsu Kai who pointed this line out. Ai Di says "做回来就不欠啦" which translates into "Do it back and I'll no longer owe you". (more context in comments)

Ep 10

Matt Lee's character who was Ai Di's friend at the bar before jail mentions that Ai Di even dyed his hair blonde upon going overseas to further his education. Meaning, Ai Di's friends were told that he was schooling overseas when he was actually in prison 😢

Ai Di tells Chen Yi "应该多培养一些人在你旁边了，被开枪的时候，才有人帮你垫背" which translates into "You should cultivate relationships so more people will be by your side, so that when the gun is fired, there will be someone to take the bullet for you". Ai Di's done it once, he doesn't want to do it again. And Chen Yi smiles weakly after Ai Di says this because Ai Di just confirmed that he went to jail in Chen Yi's stead.

Ep 11

Like Xiao Jie says, Chen Yi really sucks at wooing someone, so much so that even Xiao Jie is better. On receiving the signature, Ai Di asks if Chen Yi thinks he is BTS (bangtan) and that he can sell his autograph 😂

Ep 12

Chen Yi says "我是在你离开之后，我才发现自己真正喜欢的是你" which has been translated into "It's true I realised you are the one with whom I'm in love while you were gone." I would prefer if it had been "It was only after you left that I realised the one whom I actually love is you". Keyword 真正 - really/actually.

Ai Di uses more heart-rending words. Instead of "Don't make me your rebound just because you can't get the one you love", it would be better translated as "Don't randomly use anybody as a substitute just because you couldn't have the person you love."

Cake scene translations

The most heartbreaking line of this scene. 再 - again. Ai Di actually says "Never again will I step aside for anyone." Implicitly, he was previously going to give up on Chen Yi for CDY.

ok this was a longass post but I wanted to keep most of the angst here
