-Bonus 3- 🕶️🪶 Yi Sang - Gubo

[offshore-brinicle]

Part of the reason I talk about the League of Nine so much aside from my personal hyperfixation and the interest in Korean literature it awoke in me, is that something that is completely lost in like 99% of western users is that Canto IV and the League of Nine's backstory was Heavily based on the Japanese occupation of Korea since this is the time where the real Yi Sang and Guinhoe lived. Even Mili's song for the Ruina collection Salt, Pepper, Birds and The Thought Police is, in fact made in honor of another author from this era Yun Dong-ju who actively stood up against the Japanese forces. Even Ruina's tagline is a reference to his book Sky, Wind, Stars, and Poetry and every chapter of Ruina starts with a quote from him.

It's very much undivorcable from this context but the information is very hard to access for non-Koreans and a lot of people don't really do the research but I want this aspect of the story to be acknowledged more, specially with the Blade Lineage's storyline highlighting more on the kind of displacement, alienation and corruption that led to them having to abandon their roots much like Limbus' reimagining of the Guinhoe. The reason Dongrang and Gubo are so villafied is because as the Guinhoe corrupted under the pressure of oppression those two were some of the worst offenders, actively writing propaganda and abandoning their people for the sake of siding with whoever benefited them best, and as someone who also grew up living through the aftereffects of colonialism and immigration it's all specially clear to me.

Though personally, I'm quite relieved that the fanwiki has also been updating with the proper resources in regards to the real life background and context, I recommend the pages for at least a more simplified rundown of a lot of the key details and the references made by each member in Canto IV (though it doesn't include some things I have talked about here before and I have made my resolution to contribute to it as well)

Hermann: "Good work retrieving that Golden Bough for us Nelly. Welcome to my team here at N Corp. You've already met Aseah."

Aseah: "Ah, that Linton fellow truly did make an excellent dough. I wonder what we shall bake next..."

Hermann: "We also have another of Yi Sang's old compatriots, Gubo."

Gubo: "I heard you were with Yi Sang for a while. Did he ask about me? Does he want to come home? Did he-"

Hermann: "Hong Lu's brother, Jia Huan."

Jia Huan: "Ah, did my brother get you to finally wash those filthy rags of his?"

Hermann: "Sonya, who's technically only hired help."

Sonya: "Ah, I heard you were a Butler. Would you like to discuss workers rights some time?"

Hermann: "Our newest addition before you, Captain Ahab."

Ahab: "I SHALL SHARPEN EVERY HARPOON, SAIL EVERY WAVE UNTIL I HAVE SKWERED THAT BEAST ACROSS EVERY POSSIBLE REFLECTION! I, AHAB, WILL PROVE THAT I ALONE WILL-

Hermann: "And of course, me. I'm sure you've seen the excellent work I did with my ungrateful son. A shame my current Wing doesn't allow insectoid hybrids to be created under their watch."

Nelly: "...please tell me I at least get to wear the cool longcoat at this job."

Hermann: "You do."

Nelly: "Thank god."
