Rating:7/10
First of all, it
was written in the form of a diary, so it felt very unique from the perspective
of reading it. I think I got to think about wealth. It was a real shock to be a
Semplica Girl. In fact, I couldn't believe that people in areas like Laos were acting
as living dolls to make money, but I couldn't believe the scene where they said
it wasn't sad because they made money and gave their families a better life.
However, at the same time, I felt that SG was recognized as a symbol of wealth.
Also, I thought that it didn’t make sense to feel liberated by winning the
lottery,by taking away the freedom of Semplica Girl.
It may be a
little out of the blue, but Kyle came to mind in Victory Lap. It's not a good
thing to see, but anyway, I thought that the situation that provided SG with a
job was similar to Kyle's situation, which saved Alison from the kidnapper but
broke the kidnapper's head. I thought it would be good to think about it
together because my thoughts changed little by little depending on the
perspective of each.(198words)
