The relatability trap: Selling the ordinary candidate | New University | UC Irvine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A question of bodega orders was posed to New York City’s mayoral candidates during an October 2025 debate, placing their preferred sandwich order alongside questions about how they planned to address affordability and education in the country’s most populated city. The sandwich question may have been used for levity, but it belongs to a larger journalistic habit of asking politicians to prove that they understand the people whose wages, health care and working conditions will be shaped by public
Korean enough to sell: K-pop’s commodified Korean identity | New University | UC Irvine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In Korean pop (K-pop), idols have become cultural Build-a-Bears: meet Korean beauty standards, sing English lyrics and perform a marketable version of Koreanness calibrated for Western audiences.

The problem is that the Notes app can make people confuse emotional clarity with courage. It helps a person turn feeling into language, yet it can also provide the illusion of communication while protecting the writer from the risk of being answered. Priva
The tragedy of treating your life like a draft | New University | UC Irvine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
College has become a four-year exercise in saying later. Later, after graduation. Later, after the internship. Later, after the first stable job, the better house, the clearer plan, the version of yourself who finally feels successful enough to relax. Lives are treated as rough drafts awaiting future completion, as if the present exists mainly to be polished and submitted to some imagined authority of success. Philosopher Martin Heidegger’s concept of being-toward-death cuts sharply against this
