Hanahaki Disease
The Hanahaki Disease (花吐き病 (Japanese); 하나하키병 (Korean); 花吐病 (Chinese) is a fictional disease that causes the victim to cough up flower petals. The cause of the disease is from a one-sided love. If the person's beloved reciprocates their feelings (in a romantic way, friendship or strong relationship is not enough) or when the victim has passed. Surgery is an option, but it will cause the victim to lose all romantic feelings towards their beloved. This trope was popularized in East Asian fandoms (Korean, Japanese, Chinese) before it became used by Westerners. In fandom, this fictional disease seems to be mostly found in BL (boy love) pairings. Many have become intrigued with the concept and created non-fannish artworks, songs, poetry, documentaries, music videos, and other works based around the concept. Hanahaki Disease however, is mainly popular within fandom due to it's potential angst, hurt/comfort, pining, and romantic tension. The disease came from Etymology, Japanese 花吐き病 (hanahaki), from 花 (hana, “flower”) + 吐く (haku, “to vomit”). The symptoms for Hanahaki are: strong chest pains and flowers/petals coming from the heart of lungs, eventually coughing them out. If a victims love is not returned in time, the victim's lungs will fill with flowers, and they will eventually suffocate. There is no specific flower for the disease. Either it'd be the crushes favorite type of flower or color. It is only best to pray that their favorite flower is not a rose. The length of the disease varies with each and every person. But on average, the disease will last up to 2-3 months. Sometimes it'll last only a couple weeks. Mlmlkyu (talk) 04:20, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
