stretch, soar, splash!

Korean comments on this video

What happened

The RIIZE clip is a read-aloud of Angie King’s “Our Lake.” Its title repeats the story’s final three actions—“stretch, soar, splash”—as the narrator remembers watching his father dive.

In the Korean comments

One comment asks, in translation, “Please set aside a day and do a livestream reading an entire book in English—really, just read the book.” The specific request is for a full, book-only version of this format.

What the words mean

“퐁력적이다” (pongnyeokjeogida, a playful alteration of “violent”) does not describe actual violence here. The commenter uses it as exaggerated, affectionate praise for the combination of a dinosaur sleep mask and a children’s-book reading: overwhelmingly cute rather than violent.
