Why We Read Fiction

One-Liner Quotes   Why We Read Fiction Pharmacist’s Pick   2024.04.01   Park Hool-Ryung is a pharmacist and writer who runs “A Bookstore That Is Yet Dependent.” With the goal of “Book & Fun,” which means that the fun of reading books shouldn’t be missed, the writer grows with readers and customers.

Korean Gardens by Your Side

New Books   Korean Gardens by Your Side Learning the aesthetics of reflection from Korean gardens   2025.11.03                 When we think of a garden, we often imagine a well-tended flower bed or a space where trees are neatly planted. However, only by stepping outside that narrow frame can we truly begin to encounter the diverse faces of the Korean garden. A garden is not just a space to be cultivated - it is where the human heart resides. Its meaning changes with the mind of the person who tends it and the generational background.   “Within a garden lie traces of the heart that reach beyond mere scenery.” - from the book   Just as we can understand why Yoon Seon-Do, disheartened by the world that failed to recognize him, built a lavish garden at Seyeonjeong on Bogildo Island, and how the small gate and modest pond of Toegye Yi Hwang’s Dosan ...

With long rest and steady rain, readers naturally turned their attention to books - befitting the season often called “the season of reading.”The bestseller list for the second week of October reflected the approaching year’s end.
