Dan moo ji,

You were my favourite side dish, alongside Kimchi.

I would put you between my lips if my jigae ever got too spicy.

I loved you, dan moo ji.

But then, one day, I thought – Dan moo ji, why are you so yellow? So… unnaturally yellow? This can’t be the real you. Why are you acting so artificial around me?

So this is the end of the road for us, Dan moo ji. I just can’t look at you the same anymore. You’ve lost your appeal. And now that I know the secret you’ve been keeping, you don’t even taste the same to me.

Goodbye forever, Dan moo ji.
