Quote by Sooyeon Won

“What could it be? What kind of power could have brought out such a smile from Eunhyung’s heart that had become the wreckage? Sprouts keep shooting from the ground, even if you step on them again and again. I wonder if that sort of power is the source of our strength. Just like that... if you pushed through that moment’s crisis like that... would you be here with us right now Eunhyung?”

“I always wondered why survivors understood other survivors so well. Why, even if the details of our attacks vary, survivors can lock eyes and get it without having to explain. Perhaps it is not the particulars of the assault itself that we have in common, but the moment after; the first time you are left alone. Something slipping out of you. Where did I go. What was taken. It is terror swallowed inside silence. An unclipping from the world where up was up and down was down.”

“How do you come after me, when it is all of us? One of the greatest dangers of victimhood is the singling out; all of your attributes and anecdotes assigned blame. In court they’ll try to make you believe you are unlike the others, you are different, an exception. You are dirtier, more stupid, more promiscuous. But it’s a trick. The assault is never personal, the blaming is.”
