there is a version of eunyung she could have been, that never lived on the streets and is a seasoned actor and hasn't fallen behind her peers and doesn't even know how to fight. and eunyung has to first admit she wanted to be that person and then mourn them before she can make strides to go for what she can have. she wanted to enjoy watching the cherry blossoms! and that's a process a lot of trans people have to go through as well! watching her go through that journey felt deeply intimate to me for that exact reason. it's a part of eunyung's narrative that is arguably less overtly trans than some others - her social isolation, her conflicts with masculine hierarchies and authorities, her child self smiling in a dress - but its still one i really appreciate
