Medea, Yeonsoo Kim

After I finished reading the Medea, I felt very gloomy. Not only the story of the Medea, but how I felt for her was bringing myself down. Because I could see a woman who got hurt by love and she did give everything to Jason whom was her lover. I imagined how much pain she got because of Jason’s betrayal that it drove her mad. It ended up with killing her own sons. Then what made her go crazy and what made her so evil? I think she was too innocent for love and she believed in Jason, so that when he ignored her, the whole world would had been meaning nothing to her. And her supernatural ability made people scared. That’s why the story of Medea seems more extreme.
