Braving the Perils of a Villainess's Life

01 : Why read it if it's not your taste?

Boredom.

Even though we as humans find joy in many things, we sometimes find it so fleeting that we get bored of it after a relatively short period.

For example, a once-loved hobby may become dull, and new interests can seem tedious. This is because our brain is not wired to maintain a single interest for a long time and may begin to lose interest as it adjusts to the stimulus, making it less captivating.

As humans, we tend to seek out new experiences and challenges to remain engaged and stimulated, which is why interests can change and decline over time.

They have a propensity for boredom, even with their interests. While other species may remain engaged in their pursuits for extended periods of time, humans often find themselves seeking novel experiences to stave off the monotony.

This trait may have played a role in the rapid development of human culture and society, as boredom is often a catalyst for innovation and change.

However, it can also lead to a sense of restlessness and difficulty settling into a routine.

As humans grow bored of their current activities and routines, they may find themselves willing to try new things for the simple benefit of getting a dopamine rush or change in their day-to-day life.

This can lead to impulsive decisions, risks, and experimentation in an effort to quench the boredom and introduce some more excitement.

This phenomenon may explain why many people try new hobbies, travel, or even take part in riskier activities, simply for the feeling of something new and the relief of boredom.

Boredom can also often leads to humans doing things they wouldn't otherwise do to relieve the feeling, such as trying extreme sports, excessive gambling, or even becoming overly impulsive.

This can be seen as a desperate attempt to find some excitement and feel alive, even if it comes with potential dangers.

The need for new experiences and sensations can sometimes push individuals to take unnecessary risks just to alleviate the tedium of routine.

Eunji was no different.

She felt the creeping sense of boredom slowly taking hold of her daily routine. Her usual activities and hobbies no longer brought her the same satisfaction and excitement they once had.
