The names of the vanquished


After every victory, Min gets the name of the defeated bitch tattooed under her skin by her brother. She still feels Soyeon's wetness between her legs as her name becomes more and more readable. It's an old tradition by the women of their family. As a mark of honor and pride it's meant to intimidate or challenge potential opponents. Her mother's back was already covered with names as well as her aunts'. Min and her cousins were raised to be sex warriors. According to legend, this practice dates back to the time of the Japanese occupation of Korea. Japanese women enjoyed proving their sexual superiority over Korean women. However, if a Korean girl was victorious, the triumph was immortalized on her skin in order to publicly humiliate her rival. Fortunately, those dark times are history, and Min has many friends in Japan. But the tradition remained to this day.
