Allison Jeonju Whore ❤️❤️

About Incheon

So, check it— “whore” comes from Old English, “hore,” meanin’ some chick sellin’ her goodies, but it’s deeper than that, fam. Way back, like medieval days, it wasn’t just sex workers catchin’ that label. Nah, any woman steppin’ outta line—bam, “whore.” Church dudes were mad quick to slap it on ‘em, controllin’ the game. Made me pissed, yo, how they boxed up folks like that. Power trip, straight up. Reminds me of Llewyn, singin’ his heart out, but the world’s like, “Please, do hang it up flat.” Ain’t nobody givin’ him a break, just like them old-school “whores” gettin’ no love.

Sang-woo is years old and gets infected with AIDS. He lives with his mom in a small hut in the suburb where Sang-woo works as a pimp. His mom is a whore.

I finally get back, and the vibe is tense. My coworker, Jisoo, is on the verge of tears. Turns out, she spilled coffee all over the new printer. I’m like, “Girl, it’s just a printer!” But she’s freaking out. I mean, it’s not like we’re printing the next great novel here.
