Dear Evan Han Analysis

Decent Essays
The reason waving through a window from Dear Evan Hansen is the best song is because it perfectly describes living a life that’s full of fear and anxiety otherwise known as Generalized anxiety disorder (gad).

    "A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to preserve and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles. " This quote is by Christopher Reeve and it connects to the novel our Twisted Hero because of the main character and protagonist Han going against the antagonist Om. First off, Han tries to stand up for himself and kind of also the students even if it doesn't end up the way he thinks it will. This has to do with the incident of Han trying to let the tech her know about all of Om's misdeeds because the students are too scared to tell him themselves.

    There is declining participation in local elections because of many reasons such as, voter apathy, a dislike of the candidates, work conflicts, the feeling that their vote doesn’t count, and a lack of knowledge about the candidates.

    The quote ”A good nationalism has to depend on a principle of the common people, on the myths of a struggling commonality”express the fact that a nation is built on the coming together of common citizens as well as establishing a feeling of struggling. This feeling creates an environment where our society feels it must work hard to keep the nation together. Andrew O’Hagen has taken the reality of different nations in our world and has put them into one sentence. Andrew O'Hagen's view is one of that may be controversial due to the fact that it completely embraces the ideological factor of nationalism where a nation is defined under specific rules and not defined by the diversity of the citizens. A nation under his perspective may be considered more of an ethnic nation which is a nation where there is one common culture, race and religion compared to a civic nation where there a combination of cultures, races and religions.…

This odd genre combination is partially the main reason that makes this drama compelling to watch. The story of ‘’Live Up To Your Name, Dr. Heo’’ revolves around Heo Im…
