Thank you😍. As always your comments are insightful and very well thought out. A lot of this story's generation was just me thinking about stuff that I hadn't seen at all or hadn't seen much. Lol I've never seen a girl just down an entire bag of sugar, so we get the Interview scene! I know that there have been supportive parents before, but I kind of wanted to try play around with how much is intentional ignorance or some sort of uncovered weirdness.

Wanted to sort of wait to see the direction fully realize itself, so I waited to the second part to comment, but now that we’re here: I think this is a very clever take on a “genre switch.” Usually, when it comes to “beyond feasible” wg stories, they usually go into two camps. Some, that ignore the health consequences entirely, as they continue to grow to plateaus unseen. And then there are those that do it *for* the health stories. A far more morbid take, but I guess it clicks for some. What *this* story does is play with those expectations, and then sort of subvert them. You’ve got a main character who, *going in* seems to specifically have a kink for ruining themselves and being shamed. It *seems* like the story is gonna be about her ruining her life and burning every trust. And yet it ends up *not* being that! Instead of disdainful parents, she has *supportive* parents. Instead of vile vitriol from coworkers, she gets a supportive and sensual partner. It’s actually a perfect pairing, to the point that she’s almost a little bit disappointed. OH WELL! 😎 And now, as she goes further and further, and these life ending issues present themselves: if this story was of the latter camp, that would be the end, the climax. But because the *supporting* cast all treat it like the former, they keep helping her overcome her conflicts. Hell, they downplay them as simple trivialities! The cognitive dissonance at play is strangely captivating, especially because it actually seems to be *working* for her. And now as we reach part 2, Min-Ji’s philosophy has been affected by her peers too! Instead of viewing herself as driving her body to ruin, their infectious support has driven her to view it more as an opportunity, a *responsibility.* to push this as far as possible, to accept all the support she’s received as par for her new course. Analytical commentary aside, this one had some really spicy moments too. Ashka’s affair with Min-Ji, especially right in front of the (willingly) “oblivious” mother, sneaking into all sorts of places, and even changing the vibe temp of the room as they got intimate was just brilliant. And the comedy of casually dropping an *auto resuscitate* for her daughter while they do this as if it’s a bike helmet is just the perfect level of character based absurdity. The interview crowning above her mound of fat pouring out of the house, and her literally consumption of bagged sugar was wild too. Very imaginative!
