Yumi’s Cells. season 1-2 5

Story: 6

Acting: 9

Chemistry: 8

Comparable to: Our Beloved Summer (kdrama)

Honestly I just didn’t get the whole appeal of this series. I thought both seasons were kinda of messy and pointless. I think it had a lot to do with how the characters were written though. For me the main female lead is written in the way of being kind of messed up and indecisive, so she shouldn’t be in any type of relationship, while the ‘male leads’ are just a block in her way. Nothing really special to see, same ol’ same ol’, unfortunately. I feel this is more of an anime series, since the anime portion was done brilliantly and was written hilarious. I actually enjoyed that part more than the actual live action part. Oh well.

[park-king-lot]

Babi best boy 🥺 let me go cry at the corner

[jaceum]

I recently watched Yumi's Cells Season 2 and as someone who had read the webtoon before watching the drama, my question is why the hell did they give Soonrok scenes to Babi?? The almost-falling-off-the-stairs scene, the first sleepover at Soonrok's house, THE DOOR PASSWORD? I get that maybe they never thought about adapting more of Yumi's story, but they could've come up with other scenes for Yumi and Babi instead. I don't know, it just bothered me for some reason.

[treebloods]

Goo woong you are really my type

[e-uph0r1a]

okay but wung on season 2 of Yumi's Cells buying all her books and writing comments with different users...👀🚩 That's some weird ass behaviour. Like bruh, let her go!!!!!!!!!

[dumplingsjinson]

List of “stuff that happened between us which will forever live in my mind rent free” prompts

“I’m happy that you’re happy.” (DEWLKLDEWDSWL,SDL, FUCKKK)

Character A repeatedly kissing Character B’s lips, both giggling softly when they pull away from each other. (YUMI’S CELLS SEASON 2 I’M THANKING YOU FOR THIS KSKSKS) 

“You’ll always be beautiful in my eyes no matter what,” Character B murmurs after Character A tells them how insecure they are over their body. (Him reassuring me when I was spilling my guts to him and everything was everything I didn’t know I needed until now ajskks 😭 And him saying he doesn't judge lksefnklewn)

“I’m scared you’ll leave me once you see everything,” Character A murmurs, face buried in Character B’s chest. “Why would you think that?” Character B questions, a frown heard in the tone of their voice without Character A needing to look up at them; as if they think it’s ludicrous that Character A would even think they’d leave them for something like that.  (NaHH THE WAY HE SOUNDED DISAPPOINTED WHEN I SAID THAT, for even thinking that he’d leave me for that, and then trying to comfort me after, I feel so bad for doubting him omg 😭😭😭)

“Touch yourself for me, yeah?” Character B murmurs into Character A’s ear; watches as a flustered looking Character A slowly does as they’re told. (HOLY FUCKING SHITBALLS HELLOOOOOOOOO- IT’S THE FACT THAT HE ADDED THE “FOR ME” PART THAT MADE ME BECOME SO FUCKING FLUSTERED even though I did suggest it when we met last week and he was like “only if you want to” sAURR LIKE… was this invitation on his mind for a whole week LMFAOO. AND WHEN HE KEPT TELLING ME “good girl” or “that’s my baby girl” WHILE I WAS- JWKCKAS AHHHHH)

“You’re doing such a good job. That’s my baby girl/boy.” 

Character B slowly undressing Character A, at the request of Character A, because Character A is too shy to undress themselves in front of them. (PLEASE THE WAY HE JUST SLOWLY AJFKAKFK HELPPPPPPPP EVERYTHING ABOUT IT WAS SO TENDER??? LIKE DAMN)

“I don’t like the way my calves look. They’re too bulky, you know?” Character A sighs. “Well, I think it’s fine,” Character B says. “How’s it fine?” Character A whines. Character B chuckles in an abashed manner, then says, “It makes them squishier, after all.” (And then he proceeded to say he doesn’t like how his own calves look just to make me feel better, god I fucking LOVE HIM)

Character A being extremely vulnerable with Character B, and Character B listening attentively and reassuring them as much as they can.

“I’m sorry for ruining the mood,” Character A murmurs, face buried on their chest, and Character B chuckles softly. “It’s fine, don’t apologise,” Character B murmurs, stroking their fingers through their hair. “I’m here for you after all. I’m here to listen.”

“You’re so pretty, you know?” Character B mumbles, brushing a strand of hair behind Character A’s ear. (Him saying that while I was being vulnerable melted my heart TT TT AND ALSOOO WHEN HE WAS SAYING THAT WHILE I WAS ON TOP OF HIM HHWHEWHH) 

Character B littering kisses on Character A’s bare chest and saying, “You’re so soft.” (I just.. need a MOMENT)

Sloppy kisses while dry humping. (I mean I enjoyed them, and what of it??) 

“I’ve seen everything. And I’ve tasted everything. Literally,” Character B says with a chuckle as they surface from the sheets and from between Character A’s thighs to snuggle with Character A, and Character A groans, hiding their face behind their hands in utter embarrassment. (Yep. He’s seen literally everything AND had a taste by now and I’m SO FUCKING LWKENFLKWEFNLKENWFW—)

“I’m so embarrassed,” Character A groans as Character B holds them to them. “Don’t be embarrassed,” Character B says with a chuckle. “There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. It’s just you and me, after all.” 

“Fuck, I wanna feel you against me,” Character A murmurs. (I said that, sir, yes I did. And what aBOUT IT—)

Character B kissing Character A on the cheek during one of those self-service photo booth sessions, which catches Character A off-guard. (AND WHEN I UPLOAD THE PIC- jk) 

Character B pressing kisses against Character A’s forehead while they’re fucking. (We weren’t technically fucking, but it was close lmfao) 

Character A clenching Character’s A’s head between their thighs as Character B eats them out, fingers going in and out of them sporadically. (The finger AND TONGUE COMBO PLEASEEE) 

Character A repeatedly apologising for dumping their feelings and vulnerabilities on Character B every time they see each other and Character B telling them it’s fine and that they’ll always be here to listen to them. (Please, I love this man so much) 

Character B slapping Character A’s ass while they’re using their phone, ass high up in the air. “What was that for?!” Character A whines, turning to glare at Character B. “That’s revenge for you doing that to me,” Character B says with a triumphant grin. (Yes we are at tHAT level of comfort with each other and YES I like slapping his ass. And don’t ask me why I was looking at my phone while in that position, it’s difficult to explain-)

Character B calling Character A cute and adorable while they’re messing around, because apparently Character A will always be adorable to them no matter what they do. 

Character B showering Character A with compliments and praises which flusters Character A every single goddamn time, and Character A telling Character B to shut up every time they compliment them because they don’t know how to take compliments. 

“God, I’m so wet/hard.” “And I don’t see a problem with that?” “Uhhh, no, there’s no problem but it is your fault that this is happening.” (FUCKING TEASE- IOEWFEKLKEWN) 

“Tell me when you want me to stop, okay?” Character B murmurs, glancing up at Character A from between their thighs, and something about that sight will forever remain etched in Character A’s mind. 

“As I’ve always said, we have all the time in the world, and I want you to be comfortable.” (HE IS AN ANGEL, PLSSS) 

“I’m happy you got out of your comfort zone,” Character B murmurs, cuddling Character A close to their chest. (ThE SWEETEST BOYFRIEND I’M TELLING YOU) 

Character B covering Character A with a blanket, knowing that they’re still feeling a little self-conscious over having their body exposed like this. (And him draping the blanket over us both as he cuddled close to me welkfnekwn I’m fiNISHED) 

Character B taking their time with Character A, going at a pace that Character A’s comfortable with. (He was so attentive the whole time TT TT)

Character B brushing Character A’s hair behind their ears to unhide their face; just so they could take a better look at them. (It’s even more EWLFKNEWFKN when he does it while we’re messing around, because I’m covering my face with my hair on purpose because I’m self-conscious as fuck, while he wants to see my face lmfaooo) 

[kyanako5972]

While it's still March 31 on my side of the globe, I think I should talk about Yumi's Cells and Daily JoJo. My all-time favorite Webtoons.

Because I was big on Webtoons in 2020-2023.

And I was especially big on these two. (Just look at the "Funny" page of Yumi's Cells on TVTropes. I've logged funny moments for almost every episode, even if many of them are a stretch.)

Spoilers for both of them up to S3, Ep. 5 of Daily JoJo.

Disclaimer: I'm not well-versed in Korean culture, so pardon me if I mess up anything.

I also haven't gathered every piece of information about the passage of time, so consider these the minimum amount of time passed.

So in S3, Ep. 5, Anna says that Jina is older than Woong.

Jina says she's 35 three months before the present time. (Wait, did they change how age works in Korea? I thought everyone's age is tied to the new year... And is this international age or Korean age?)

Anyway, how old is Woong?

32 in Korean age (international age plus 1). We know that Woong is most likely the same age as Yumi. (If he wasn't, they'd point out that he wasn't.)

Before the time skip, Daily JoJo takes place around the same time as the "Shall We Dance" arc of Yumi's Cells.

Going by just Yumi's breakups alone, it's more than three years from the beginning to her final break-up with Babi. (They take about a month of break)

And then about two years from that break-up to when she meets Soonrok. (The left screenshot flashes forward while she's still with Babi, while the right flashes forward from just before she meets Soonrok.)

So after the beginning of Daily JoJo/the "Shall We Dance" arc of Yumi's Cells, there's about a year time skip to present-day Daily JoJo. (I haven't accounted for any time passage in Season 2, though)

So age 32 + 3 years + 2 years + 1 year (all rounding down)

... and that makes Woong at least 38.

(Huh. I thought my math would have brought it to 39. I must have missed something.)

So unless I missed something big, Jina is not older than Woong.

2022 Year in Review: My Korean drama recommendations

2022 went by so quickly, and I think that's partly because almost every week I had new episodes of shows to look forward to. I'm a bit of a contradiction: I don't have the patience to wait for a new show to be completed so I could binge it, but I (maybe not-so) patiently wait for episodes every week, haha. TBH, I find I'm more invested in a show and its characters when I watch a drama weekly. And there were so many characters worth the investment in 2022: Woo Young Woo, Queen Im Hwa Ryeong, the Oh sisters, Kim Yumi, Jin Do Jun and Jang Uk, to name a few.

I just want to make clear that, as in previous years, this is by no means a list of the best Korean dramas of 2022. These are merely my favorites among the ones I watched that premiered in 2022 (or ended in 2022).

You can find my previous roundups here:

2021: Year in Review 2020: Year in Review

YUMI'S CELLS 2

New season means new love for Kim Yumi (Kim Go Eun) as she begins a romance with co-worker Yoo Babi following her breakup with video game designer Goo Woong. TBH, I wasn't quite sure how I'd feel about the new pairing — I have a soft spot for Ahn Bo Hyun — but Jinyoung charmed me even before the series started. He and Go Eun have a sweet and natural chemistry that made me root for Yumi and Babi, even knowing how the relationship ended in the webtoon. Another thing I love about the series is its portrayal of Yumi's pursuit of her dream to be a writer — from the frustrations of earlier rejections to keeping it positive while faced with criticisms and the satisfaction of another job (book) well done. That shot of her jumping on the bed toward the end of the series was cathartic and the perfect cap to Yumi's growth. (Viki)

LITTLE WOMEN

This is NOT Louisa May Alcott's famous novel though it does share some themes and puts sisters at the forefront of the story. The Oh sisters — In Joo, In Kyung and In Hye — just want to live a life not steeped in poverty. So when 2 billion won falls on In Joo's lap, their problems are over, right? Nope. A multitude of troubles arrive as the sisters get entangled with a rich, powerful and corrupt family with a lot of unscrupulous allies. This series got me on the edge of my seat from the very first episode and the thrills and tension never let up until the end. I absolutely love how messy and chaotic the sisters and their relationships with each other are. They love but they also fight, annoy and block each other, LOL! Now please cast Kim Go Eun and Wi Ha Joon in an action comedy series or film and give them the ending on the sunny beaches of Greece that their characters deserve. (Netflix)

BULGASAL: IMMORTAL SOULS

This is the first drama that caught my attention last year, a fantasy with monsters, past lives, immortal love and families. It's the story of how the lives of a man (Lee Jin Wook) who was turned into an immortal monster 600 years ago and a woman (Kwon Na Ra) who has been dying and reincarnating for centuries have been intertwined. The world building is quite interesting and the central mystery keeps you guessing until the very end. Keep an eye out for familiar faces as people from the past emerge in the present. (Netflix)

A BUSINESS PROPOSAL

This romcom is adorable with a capital A. Shin Ha Ri (Kim Se Jeong) shows up to a blind date pretending to be her best friend and does her best to turn off a potential match by behaving outrageously. It's a schtick she and her chaebol best friend had cooked up a long time ago to discourage suitors. Unfortunately, the blind date turns out to be Kang Tae Moo (Ahn Hyo Seop), the young president of the food company where she works. And even more unfortunately, he's interested and now wants to marry her! Hilarious chaos ensues, abetted by the couple's adorable best friends (the second couple), her zany family and his kdrama-loving grandfather. You'll never look at an archaeopteryx (bird-like dinosaur) the same way again. (Netflix)

TOMORROW

This is a lovely, heartbreaking, oftentimes cathartic drama about people desperate enough to consider taking their own lives and the team of resolute grim reapers who work very hard to prevent their deaths. Comatose Choi Jun Woong (Rowoon) is the newbie in the Risk/Crisis Management Team led by Koo Ryeon (Kim Hee Sun). Lim Ryung Gyu rounds up the team. Head of the Soul Collection Team Park Joong Gil, despite being a fellow grim reaper, is a thorn on the team's side — he has a special animosity for Ryeon that may have something to do with the past. Fortunately, the team has a stalwart supporter in the Jade Emperor (Kim Hae Sook). (Netflix)

MILITARY PROSECUTOR DOBERMAN

Legal action drama with a touch of comedy is probably the best way to describe this series and it's the perfect leading man vehicle for Ahn Bo Hyun. Do Bae Man passes the bar with basically just a GED and so finds himself unable to find a spot in a decent law firm until he gets an "offer he can't refuse" from corrupt lawyer Yong Moon Go: Serve in the military for five years as a prosecutor and then join his prestigious firm after. The plan is going swimmingly until he crosses paths with another military prosecutor, Cha Woo In (Jo Bo Ah), who is targeting some members of the military brass for revenge after her beloved father's suspicious death. After long-buried secrets begin to emerge, Do Bae Man finds himself reevaluating what it is he really wants to do with his life. (Viki)

EXTRAORDINARY ATTORNEY WOO

Woo to the Young to the Woo! The series follows Woo Young Woo, a young lawyer on the autism spectrum. She's got a brilliant legal mind, able to see different angles of a case but struggles with day-to-day interactions. Fortunately, she has the people looking out for her, like her dad, her boss/mentor, her law school friend and, of course, the handsome support team member who might just have more than friendship in mind. Park Eun Bin is brilliant as Woo Young Woo, she truly gets you invested in her challenges and triumphs. The legal maneuverings are fairly interesting, especially when they involve a rival law firm and somebody from WYW's past. (Netflix)

ALCHEMY OF SOULS

In the land of Daeho, an assassin trapped in a blind woman's weak body encounters a young lord from a powerful family who needs help to unlock his powers. Interesting lead and supporting characters, solid world-building, fantastic sword and sorcery action? I was sold from the very beginning. At the end of the second ep, I was absolutely in love with the feisty Mudeok and her rather bratty young master/pupil Jang Uk who just wants his gate of energy opened so he can do what everybody can — cast spells and use a sword. There's a twist at the end of the 20-episode first season, and I guess your enjoyment of the second season would largely depend on how much you accept the change. But in both seasons, the crown prince remains quite the scene stealer and he's possibly my most favorite character of all. (Netflix)

UNDER THE QUEEN'S UMBRELLA

A truly female-driven drama — from the queen and the queen dowager down to the concubines and, yes, even the court ladies. The series begins with Queen Hwa Ryeong's biggest problem being the four grand princes' rather relaxed approach to their education, lagging behind the other sons of the king via his numerous scheming concubines. But tragedy strikes and the queen and her sons suddenly find themselves fighting to make sure they don't lose not just their positions but their very lives. Kim Hye Soo makes it so easy to root for the embattled queen who wields her position and her eyebrows skillfully to thwart ministers, concubines and her mother-in-law, the queen dowager. I also love that her sons, the four grand princes, are unlike other royal brothers in sageuks — they are close, affectionate and loyal, leaving the dirty tricks to their half-brothers. This series probably has the most satisfying ending among the ones I watched last year. (Netflix)

REBORN RICH

Yoon Hyun Woo is a hard-working, loyal, no-questions-asked employee of the powerful Jin Family, which controls the Soonyang Group. One day, on an overseas errand to retrieve some secret money, he is betrayed by someone in the family and murdered — but promptly finds himself "waking up" in the body of the youngest grandson of the Jins, back in 1987. How, you ask? I finished the series but that part is still unclear. What's clear is how charismatic and believable Song Joong Ki is as the twentysomething investment whiz Do Jun. And what an amazing actor Lee Sung Min, as Soonyang chairman and patriarch Jin Yang Cheol is. The push-pull in their relationship is what made the series work for 15 episodes. Not that the supporting cast members are slackers. This is one of the best ensembles I've ever seen, the actors really working to make these characters ones you'd love to hate. Some of the business stuff might put off viewers but I found the whole thing fascinating and easily understood. I cheered when Do Jun/Hyun Woo used his knowledge of the future as well as his relatives' greed to take pieces of Soonyang. I'm recommending this series but with a caveat: I found the ending a bit of a mess and rather unsatisfactory. BUT the previous 15 episodes are fantastic and definitely worth a watch. (Viki)

Bonus recommendations

I recently started dipping my toes into Chinese dramas, even though I'm still intimidated by the episode count. "Love Between Fairy and Devil" is sweet and hilarious and has fantastic special effects. (Netflix and Viki)

But my heart truly belongs to Li Wei and the sixth young prince of Xin State as they figure out family, politics and love as their "New Life Begins." (Viki)

Last but certainly not the least, "Pachinko," which even though it stars some of the biggest names in Korean entertainment is not considered K-Drama by its creators. Based on Min Jin Lee's critically acclaimed novel, the series — Youn Yuh Jung, Lee Min Ho and Kim Min Ha are key parts of the ensemble — follows the trial and tribulations of a Korean family over four generations. The story begins in Korea, moves to Japan and eventually spreads to the United States. The story is rich and emotional, the direction precise and the acting superb. It has been recognized in a lot of year-end lists and recently won the Critics Choice Award for best foreign language series. (Apple TV +)

I Noticed a Disturbing Pattern

Here are all the times the group has turned on Jeremie when he does not deserve it (because sometimes he does need a reality check). I'm including the circumstances behind each time, as well as if the others apologize or not.

~Season 1~

"Image Problem": Clone!Yumi tries seducing Jeremie to convince him to arrange a mission to Lyoko so the clone can destroy the scanners. Odd and Ulrich stumble upon the scene and Ulrich takes it the wrong way, refusing the listen to Jeremie when he tries to explain. During class, it's evident that Odd has taken Ulrich's side, given how he sticks out his tongue and blows a raspberry at Jeremie. // Do the others apologize?: No, but Ulrich does hear Jeremie out when he tries to explain. Jeremie's the one who has to apologize, even though it was clone!Yumi who incited the incident, and Ulrich reacts because his jealousy.

~Season 2~

"X.A.N.A.'s Kiss": XANA uses a polymorphic clone to sow discord within the group, and he begins by taking Jeremie's form and kissing Heidi. Ulrich and Odd stumble upon this. Despite his insistence that such an event happened, the only one of his friends that stays by Jeremie's side is Yumi, who is ostracized by the group the exact same way for the exact same reason. // Do the others apologize?: No. Not that we see, at least. The group does come to understand that it was a XANA attack the whole time, but apologies needed to be said here, on all sides. All XANA did was use their images to kiss other people; the fault rests on the group for turning on each other so quickly.

"Franz Hopper": XANA uses the image of Franz Hopper to target Jeremie, blaming him for the scanners causing cell degeneration and the destruction of his diary on Jeremie. Only Aelita stands up for him, but he receives no interference from the others when walking away from the so-called "final mission". The others remember they have brains, however, once the fake Hopper double-crosses them and they find the activated tower in Sector 5. // To the others apologize?: Off-screen, but yes. It needed to be on-screen, though, and you can pry that belief from my cold, dead hands.

~Season 3~

"Aelita": Despite not intending to hurt her (and the fact that he's already searched every inch of Lyoko for her father), Aelita is so mad at Jeremie that she and Odd go to Sector 5 behind his back. // Do Aelita and Odd apologize?: No. Not that we know of. Hate me all you want, but Aelita needed to apologize for this.

~Season 4~

"Maiden Voyage": While the others are stuck in the Skid, Jeremie must scale the roof of the dormitory building to get the CD to fix the program that bugged up the Skid. Jeremie doesn't tell the others, figuring they would never believe him, but when Odd managed to correctly guess what Jeremie did, clearly joking, none of the others believe him, due to the absurdity of it. // Do the others apologize?: No, not that we know of. (I know this one's mild compared to the other examples, but I'm still counting it, because I believe he doesn't deserve it.)

"Replika": Aelita and Odd plan to fake kiss to get Nicolas and Herve out of the factory, and it works (despite the two throwing childish insults at each other all episode). At the end, they've made up, but their fake kiss doesn't sit well with Jeremie, and they know this. However, the two only tease him with "Well, Einstein has learned what it means to have an open mind!" // Do Aelita and Odd apologize?: No, not that we know of. (Again, this one's mild, but I'm still counting it, because Jeremie does not deserve it.)

"Cousins Once Removed": Jeremie's cousin Patrick comes to visit, and Jeremie's not happy about it, due to feeling jealous because he believes Patrick is so much cooler than him. Not only do the others immediately flock to Patrick, calling him "a better looking Einstein", but when Jeremie explains his story to Aelita, not once does she show sympathy for his feelings. // Do the others apologize?: No. The narrative just paints Jeremie as the bad guy when they already had the snooping Sissi and hacker Herve. (Before anybody points it out, yes, I do admit that Jeremie needed a reality check; he shouldn't have treated his cousin like that. But Jeremie's feelings are one-hundred percent ignored here, by his friends no less, and he does not deserve that.)

~Evolution~

N/A

No, I don't have a point with all of this, nor a theory. I just wanted to point out this concerning pattern that Evolution thankfully gets rid of. I can't help but wonder, though, why this pattern exists.

Feel free to add to the list if I missed anything.

[fmdhyojung]

hiya, everyone! i had the nastiest flu ever which is why i requested a hiatus for the week, but i’m slowly feeling better so i’m going to try to catch up on replies. plus, it’s a new quarter so feel free to take this as a Q2 update post for my muses! reply with any-colored heart emoji if you’d like a starter, or like this post if you’d like to plot something out! feel free to specify a muse or i’ll just go with whatever!

HYOJUNG.

selene is having their concert april 14, 15, 16, so if your muse would like to be invited by hyojung, she’d be more than happy to give those out! she’s a little indifferent about concerts this far into her career, but they’re a great way to communicate with fans

any gold star muses, she’ll end up bumping into at the 4k event charity event, so if you’d like to plot something out specifically for the event!

hyojung’s wrapping up transit love by the end of april, and it was a rollercoaster ride. for anybody who has watched it, she sort of took on the kim yewon role where she empathizes with pretty much every single participant, and only wished for happy endings. whether that meant them getting back together with their ex, finding someone new or walking out of single and happy, it didn’t matter, as long as this opportunity was one for them to grow! she came onto the show with a lot of mixed feelings, but she’s come out of it feeling so great and really kind of lonely because she’s been single for a while 

yumi’s cells season 2 is still filming and it’ll begin airing in may! if anybody is a drama fan and would like to talk about it, whether it means trying to get spoilers out of her or asking her how it’s like on set, we can do that as well!

overall, it’s not a very crazy quarter for hyojung. she’s just going on with her career and life like always lmao i have plans for a fanmeeting for her, but i’m still working out those details! if your muse would like to discuss possible ideas/concepts for that though, that’d be a really cute thread imo

SUJI.

feel my rhythm was such a nice era for suji because she enjoyed the song and concept so much. she wishes they could continue to release songs like this instead of.... zimzalabim lmao she’ll never let that die

equinox is also having a concert may 20 & 21 and like hyojung, anybody can be invited if they’d like to and hit up a convo with her backstage or whatever. unlike hyojung, suji loves loves concerts and lives for that energy, so she’ll be like a puppy after having 100 starbursts <3

gold star muses, suji and equinox will also be at the 4k event so see u there

on a more personal note, she has a comeback coming up in july, so she’s probably stuck in the studio, her apartment and all that jazz whenever she has schedules. again, if your muse ever wants to talk music with her, be my guest like she’s always open for that

also, i saw that a lot of people had their muses write down suji for someone they’d like to collab with and like <3 i don’t bite <3 please do hmu if you ever need a female vocalist lmao i’d love for suji to like... actually work with other people please
