[Opinions] Re: Princesses in "Damsel"
in reply to a message by Kinola
So there are dead princesses named Yoojin and Ailing? The world is a stranger place then I knew.

There can't be Chinese princesses?
A work of fiction can have princesses from anywhere, I suppose, and why not? Yoojin is not a name I've ever encountered, and to my ears it sounds like a waiter who doesn't speak much English, taking drinks orders: Him Scotch, her brandy, you gin. As for Ailing, it is remarkably silly. Perhaps the author knew what s/he was doing, but it's not the kind of book I'll ever read, so I'll never know.
