the feminine urge to 🔪 when wrath arrives

so much of Korean cinema's stylized violence and horror stems from having been censored until the late 90s/early 00s while also dealing with barely processed trauma responses from the Japanese occupation, the war, dictatorships, suffering under imperialism, and then rampant destructive capitalism

And, of course, so much of Japanese media (esp superheroes and monster movies) is barely processed WWII/atomic bomb trauma responses. Even the kids' shows (e.g., Kamen Rider, Ultraman) are heavily influenced by WWII trauma.
