Idealized Roles and Emotional Contrasts: The Impact of Women’s Depictions in Romance Content on Girls’ Development via Smart Devices

This project investigates how romantic media influences teen girls’ understanding of love, highlighting the gap between idealized fantasies and real-life relationships. Through a set of interactive journals and thoughtfully designed stationery, including notebooks, calendars, and decorative tapes,it encourages emotional reflection, self-awareness, and peer sharing. The journal features sections for tracking emotions, recognizing personal patterns, and expressing feelings, offering a creative and grounded space for girls to explore what love truly means in their lives.

As girls grow up, their emotional world undergoes many subtle yet profound changes. These shifts are shaped by various influences, including parental guidance, school education, the surrounding environment, and especially the media they consume. This project investigates how romantic media content influences the perception of love among adolescent girls. This project aims to offer a new perspective that encourages adolescent girls to understand love in a more grounded way,to learn how to love themselves and others, recognize the long-term impact of real-world experiences, and cultivate a more authentic and imaginative vision for the future.
