“In 2018, there was an article about a newlywed girl whose husband left her in the mother’s home before leaving for India to work. As days turned into years, the husband never called leaving the newly wed to confront her troubling thoughts every day until one day, she committed suicide. I couldn’t get over the thought of how great of an opportunity that was for the newly wed in absence of her husband to become independent and rejoice in her solitude. Junko is the my confrontation to that article and an alternate ending to the girl’s life”.
