John CoffeyHe is an African American with a massive build (6 ft 8 in tall), having been convicted of the rape and murder of two young girls and sentenced to death. He is very quiet and prefers to keep to himself, weeps almost constantly, and is afraid of the dark. Even at the end, during his execution, he asks Paul Edgecombe not to put on the traditional black silk mask used to block the view of the prisoner's face because he fears the dark. Coffey is described as "knowing his own name and not much else" and lacks the capability to do so much as tie a simple knot. At his trial, though, the prosecution contends that he lured the girls away from their home, disposed of the watchdog, and carefully planned the crime using abilities that Paul believes to be far beyond his reach. He is the calmest and mildest prisoner the guards have ever seen, despite his hulking form. He turns out to be innocent of the rape and murder of the two girls, but allows himself to be executed regardless because he is tired of all the cruelty in the world.

도올이 강의할 때 스티븐킹 좋아하는데 <그린 마일>의 존 코피가 Jesus Christ의 JC 이니셜을 따서 만든 거라셔서 알게 됐습니다.
서양에서 이름 이니셜을 JC로 하는 문화가 원래 있었던건가요?
장한평 버스 지나갈 때 있던 청년회의소도 약자가 JC인데 맞춰서 만든 것 같기도 하고요.


Lil Nas X란 예명에서 섹스라고 발음되는 X 자체가 X-mas처럼 그리스도란 뜻도 있습니다.


흑인 인권운동가 Malcolm X 이름에도 들어가고요.

X는 execution 처형이란 뜻도 있지만요.
