Recommended: False portrayal of mental illnesses in media

I believe the character Yoo Jung was portraying a complex and intriguing character many was accusing him of being a sociopath, but after watching the episodes it felt like I was watching a horror drama instead of a typical romance drama. Jung is undeniably an manipulative, cunning, pathological lying but also incredibly a complex character. He actually creeps me out but after going through the episodes I realized that he is lonely and reserved, and does not feel any remorse to any other characters once he starts to manipulate. He also can’t really trust other people because most of them only wants something from him, such taking advantages of him. Hence that he hides behind a perfect façade to hide his hidden struggle. He …show more content…

I have described the disorder previously above. The character probably exhibit a sociopath which I know I have already stated, Yoo Jung is fearful of rejection and probably why he who is incredibly manipulative, while it actually true that he crushes people it was really strange how he did not used anyone as a stepping stone. He has never tried to mooch off of someone’s work despite diligent and power who he put a lot of effort into his work while looking after others. He also seems to have much higher moral respect from other characters. After looking up in a website about sociopath I came to conclude that the character I am analyzing really is a sociopath. “The lack of conscience and inability to feel remorse They do not have the ability to make and keep friends, and also viewed as charming until the casual deception shines through their skillful masterful manipulation, They have the skillful …show more content…

I think the writer really portrayed it so accurately, everything just fits right in, once I think about it his character really is just perfectly portrayed for sociopath, there is no argument where I would think what HE SHOULD have portrayed, because it just…..fit in. The treatment? What I have seen and I THINK that it was a treatment is because the main girl name Sul helped him become “normal” and not as manipulative, because she began to fully understand his motives in a way. She began to accept his dark side and decided to help him on the long run. It was more mentally, he began to think that she was different from everyone else because throughout his whole life, he thought everyone was just taking advantage of him because he was smart, and rich, but Sul was different she wanted to do everything on her own and not get anything the easy way. The treatment that the character received somewhat help, but at the end I think the characters were to break up, and go to their separate ways because everything was chaotic and crazy, I actually really don’t remember, but I remember is that they just walk part ways. And probably about 2 more years a scene that showed that

  • A Critique on "The Sociopath Next Door"

    ...not function without an element of ruthlessness and a need to win. Could any capitalist be called a sociopath? In my opinion I believe that while this non-fiction novel does enlighten us to some degree on the nature and behaviors of sociopaths, it is not a myopic and in depth study worth putting any faith-based investments into. Also, it fails to answer a major and simple question: what does the future hold for these ‘monsters’? Will the population of sociopaths increase exponentially, until it is they who must destroy us for being the minority? Or are their numbers diminishing due to social awareness about this condition? Is sociopathy purely biological in nature or does this personality disorder also stem from personal experience or otherwise? In short, this book raises more questions that in answers, resulting in a disappointing and unfulfilled search for truth.

    1499 Words  | 3 Pages

    The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines a sociopath as someone who behaves in a dangerous or violent way towards other people and does not feel guilty about such behavior. Sociopaths lack a conscience that allows people to decipher between right and wrong. In A Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allen Poe, the narrator, Montresor, is believed to be a sociopath by many. He kills his friend, Fortunado, after he literally adds insult to a thousand of injuries. Though what the insult was and the previous injuries were never revealed to the reader, it could be assumed that Montresor probably overreacted to the Fortunado’s insult. But in order to answer this question the evaluation upon his motivation, strategy, and Montresor’s feeling and emotion towards

His social life is the same, when meeting people he does not make an effort to get to know them or understand where they are coming from. This trait is demonstrated tremendously in the last few chapters. Lastly, his habits are very disgusting, some could call him an alcoholic because he drinks almost every night in New York City.

    Personality types stems from Carl Jung spend time observing personality preferences, which he later on published in his in 1921. Carl’s discovery of the two major typical differences in human psychology such as extrovert and introvert influenced Katherine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Myers theories and lead them to experiment during World War II. Myers and Briggs worked on methods that would help women, who heretofore had no prior workplace experience, find those types of jobs that were most comfortable and effective (Myers & Myers, 1996). The three learning styles I have chosen to write about would meet the needs of the learners and provide an effective learner/teacher experience. Therefore, the need for learning level in people varies at all levels, to make sure the delivery method meets the learners’ expectation, it is important to re-evaluate the styles of learning chosen and make sure all background

  • Phychoanalysis In Psychology: Sigmund Freud And Carl Jung

    Jung agrees with Freud and his thought process of the structural constructs, he disagrees with there only being three parts of the unconscious mind. Jung’s structural construct of the psyche is more in-depth than Freud’s. Jung uses the similar basic construct of Freud and agreeing with the differences in the types of consciousness in the mind. Jung uses the ‘shadow’ instead of the id which is the unknown concepts of one’s personality and the unknown choices that we make based upon good and evil side of everyone. In other words, our shadow which resides in our unconscious mind are the ‘skeletons in our closet’ which can be described as the unwanted and the rejected thoughts that we have by our ego and our

    What is a sociopath? According to R. (2012) “There are people in the world who don't care about love, and who feel no remorse, empathy or emotional attachment to others. They don't even know what these feeling are. These people are called sociopaths.” (It Wasn"t a Relationship – It Was a Robbery!!, 2013) explains, “The sociopath makes a career living off others. They feed off your energy, your wealth, your social life, your friends and family, your body, everything, and if you have material possessions, they will take those too.” According to Andersen (n.d.) “[Sic] Sociopathy is not a mental illness; it is a personality disorder. The condition is highly genetic.” These days most people find their mate on an online dating sites. Most of the dates go well but, “More than 2 billion people on the Internet. It is reasonable to assume that, as in real life, 1 percent to 4 percent of them are sociopaths. That means they are 20 million to 80 million sociopaths online – all trolling for victims 24/7 around the world” (Andersen, 2012, p. 91). Andersen (2012) writes, “If you are looking for love online, by definition, you are lonely. Sociopaths specialize in targeting lonely people” (p. 88). Andersen (2012) continues, “The Internet and social media make it easy for sociopaths to research you, your connections and your interests. Still, sociopaths usually get all the information they need for seduction directly from you, through conversations and correspondence” (p. 113). Could your online date actually be a sociopath?”

  • Critical Analysis Of Martha Stout's The Sociopath Next Door

    I always believed that I had a little bit of sociopathy in me, that at some moments I don’t feel anything and I don’t require constant attention. But now that I have read this book, and learned conscience in a much deeper manor I can say that I know many minor sociopaths, not a full blown highly functioning one mind you, but I do know some. It’s made me question how many people I know are sociopaths, and do they even know what they are? I’m no saying there monsters, because simply having a lacking of something does not make you a monster, committing some sort of an action does. The idea that we are lucky, because we have the ability to love, hate, greave, forgive, and all of the biggest emotions, not everybody has them, so that I am lucky to love my family, and that I can look back on all the stupid things I’ve done and been able to reflect on them is amazings, but is taken for granted, because not everyone can. Martha Stout's ideas are based on a good premise, and backed up with logical conclusions, so this book I do not believe is about finding sociopaths, but is the understanding of them, and of conscience in which they

    After reading the chapters from Jung, the elephant in the room cannot be ignored. Based on what I’ve gathered Jung forged a friendship with Freud for personal gains. Freud anticipated his “death” before it occurred, in the metaphorical sense; publication of Jung’s chapter “The Sacrifice” which Jung lied to Freud about when questioned about death and death wishes. Coincidentally, once Jung obtained the knowledge he sought by befriending Freud, the publication resulted negatively for Jung despite not adhering to Freud’s request: strong emphasis on sexuality with the unconscious. Consequently Jung was deterred from his path in life. In certain instances, Jung mentions dwellin...

  • Nietzsche's Theory Of Personality

    985 Words  | 2 Pages

    Jung’s theory of personality development opposed Freud’s, disagreeing “that human motivation is exclusively sexual and that the unconscious mind is entirely personal and peculiar to the individual” (Stevens, 18). Jung composed multiple theories, which, in summation, created his theory of personality development. The Complex Theory was done by a word association test; a patient is given a word in which that are to respond back with one of their own as quickly as possible. From these tests, Jung proposed that below the conscious is the personal unconscious, which is structured according to clusters of emotions, images, and ideas organized around a core theme. His image of the human psyche was explained in relation to the structure of a house: “the room on the upper floor represented his conscious personality”, “the ground floor stood for the first level of the personal unconscious”, and “in the deepest level of all he reached the collective unconscious”, an area that holds deeper memories transmitted biologically, left from our ancestors
