In this new series, I'll be breaking down a historically or socially significant critical theory and discussing its relevance to modern-day issues! For the first episode I'll be going through 3 of Susan Bordo's essays from 'Unbearable Weight' arguing the anorexic woman's BODY is a CULTURAL TEXT that literally symbolizes the societal 'double bind' (dual expectations) placed on them during the first-wave feminist era—a theory that still has impact on our view of womens' bodies today.
(also i realized how disproportionate the sections are LOL it's because i didn't want to spend too too long on the overall video and i felt the most relatable topics in line with contemporary issues regarding womens' body image & eating disorders.)

What’s your channel about? Fashion, cultural identity, life in Seoul…
Who’s your favorite director? Wes Anderson.
What’s your favorite book? Trick question. Break it down into series and standalone novel to get: ~ Harry Potter ~ The Secret History (aka my magical dark academia kicking in)

But I am here. And I am ready to spill all the proverbial tea...about myself.
Since I never made an introduction video, I thought I would reVAMP my way back onto this channel by answering some of the most BURNING questions people seem to have about my life (or I imagine them to have) like:
~ What was it like growing up in so many different countries? ~ Where do you call home? ~ How do you feel like your TCK/international experience has shaped your cultural/personal identity?
ALL of which will be addressed here and beyond (check out pt. 2)!
