The Hunchback of Notre-Dame
Between outward beauty and inner ugliness, what do we believe to be the true reality?
📝ONGO's Reflection
When I first encountered Quasimodo's devoted love, my heart ached at the dazzlingly pure soul concealed within so grotesque a body. Hugo's insight lies in shattering society's prejudice by setting the hypocrisy of the resplendent priest against the nobility of the outcast. Through this tragic epic unfolding against the grand cathedral of stone, I come to reflect deeply on how easily we are deceived by the shell, and how readily we let true worth slip away.

"위대한 사랑은 가장 추한 껍데기 속에서도 피어날 수 있다."
