Monologue 'The's Jong-Gil'
Example Monologue: "The 'S

Jong-gil sits on the train in shock, looking haunted as her gaze flicks between her sister who is now infected, pawing at the glass and down at the handkerchief she is twisting about in her lap.

You stupid, stupid old woman.

You’re selfish too, you know. What am I supposed to do now? You’ve been bossing me around all my life, telling me what to do and how to behave and this is how you make me end up alone and without even a boiled egg to make the journey easier. Bah. I am a shaman. Should have known you would do this to me. Always so noble and principled. See where it got you, eh? Stuck behind glass, starving. Almost a bad joke, really. You In-gil, who always had snacks at the ready, left no lollies in your purse. After our

I used to hate your purity. When we were children, I thought you always played by the rules.

That is until the night of the dance.

Looking back now, we were like cherry blossoms. Life is full of promise. There was that dance at the local hall. Father forbids us from going. You almost made me scream, sneaking into my room. “Father’s right.” You grinned at me, “Dances are dangerous, but fun”. That’s why we’re going!” If you hadn’t done that, I would never have met my dear husband.

Even when he died, you were still there.

These last few years living together, we decided to have adventures as no one needed us anymore. I could almost blame you for wanting to visit the Beomeosa Temple in Busan. If we hadn’t gone on this latest adventure, who knows how it would have ended?

It is a shame that we didn’t get to see it and die peacefully.

Look at them. Yelling and shouting in each other’s faces; no respect. Imagine if we’d spoken like that growing up. Father would have disowned us and then died of shame.

Now they are screaming at the people who saved you. The people you saved in return.

They want to make your sacrifice

    People search forever to find true love, but true love will never be found if you can’t find true love within yourself. In the poem “Monologue for an Onion”, by Suji Kwock Kim, the metaphor isn’t just about the onion it’s also about being loved. Everyone falls in love at least once. And this love feels everlasting and perfect, as if it’s never going to end. Then, when the moment of heartbreak happens, it feels as if the world is crumbling right in front of you. People have different ways of handling a broken heart. Whether it’s denial, anger, or sadness, the feeling of not being loved is surreal. In this poem, the onion is a man that is no longer in love with his significant other and tells how…

    The bitter night Avah was killed the whole town was out celebrating. The Spring Festival was an annual affair and only the most isolated of persons would have not been there. It was a festival meticulously planned out by those intrigued in such matters and each detail was carried out to exact perfection. The Humphrey family would perform a skit each year at exactly six-thirty, the mayor would grace the audience with a well-planned speech at six-forty-five. At seven o’clock the potluck dessert would be brought out by the women and then once a half hour had passed, enough time for the people to converse with each other, the festival games would begin.…

As much as i hated those stinky brat (That only came to hit on my distant cousin), training just didn't feel the same without them, the worst part of this eerie silence is probably how it keep remind me i'm about to sell grandfather's dojo to pay that 50.000$ dollar debt my good-for-nothing failure of a father left behind after his death.

    As I went out onto the stage, the bright lights hurt my eyes. My hands were sweating and the music for our lyrical started to play. For this dance I felt free. I knew all the moves and they just flowed out of me as I continued to dance. I did not even think about the people in the crowd as I looked to the back of the auditorium. With every breath another second went by, and before I knew it I made my last move and left the stage. I thought “first dance down only two more to go,” as I quickly got ready for the next dance.…
