Instead, she smiled at him and pulled a carefree mask over her face.”

Her thoughts fall like rain drops from somewhere above,
And they remind me of her and our moments of love,
Her memories rain as kisses covering my every thought,
And they remind me of the battles of love by us together fought,
Her smiles spread like the sunshine that lights up everything,
And among this array of things, my heart too is one thing,
Her eyes steal every view floating in my vision,
And it feels like the most welcome treason,
Her voice sounds like a conversation between the rose and a butterfly,
And I wish she were a butterfly and this rose were I,
Her presence feels like the most beautiful wonder of reality,
And when I look at her, she appears to be bathed in superlative sublimity,
Her tenderly moving lips remind me of Eden,
And I wonder if she is the one, originally created by God as the most beautiful maiden,
Her movements feel like romantic shaking of flowers by the slow breeze,
To watch her in this graceful act puts my heart and mind at an eternal ease,
Her expressions that adorn her face,
Make me believe, that it is in her, Eden somehow hid its every grace,
Her everything, her every act, her every movement,
Wants me to steal her from time’s every moment,
Her wonder invades me subtly and then completely,
And I claim, “Irma I love you totally!”

“Her husband had pursued an “alternative lifestyle” that was “free of the fetters of capitalism.” The woman herself, when she was in college, had considered the conformist pressures of getting good grades, building a resume, and landing a job in some big corporation to be tedious and distasteful and had thought the life her husband wanted dovetailed with hers. They got married as soon as she graduated, and she got a job right after. She learned quickly that an “alternative lifestyle” meant nothing without a detailed, concrete plan, and living “free of the fetters of capitalism” meant working for places that didn’t pay their workers on time. As she worried about realizing this alternative lifestyle in the real world, she crumbled away under the pressures of working at a company in the non-profit sector that was run not by the normal labor of workers, but through their unrequited sacrifices. Meanwhile, her husband, who was her upperclassman in college but graduated later than she did, fiddled around in search of his ideal “alternative lifestyle” without ever settling down on any particular profession—the result being the twenty-million-won loan he had taken out and used up without her knowledge.”
