“Illness Narratives” A Detailed Reflection of our Society

Topic   “Illness Narratives”A Detailed Reflection of our Society   2022.02.14   The center of our body is not the heart.It’s the spot we feel pain when we are sick.   This is a phrase from the poem I, Stand There written by Park No-Hae. In fact, we all get restless even when a small spinule is stuck under the fingernail. Needless to say, if we feel pain in some area of our body, that spot becomes the center of our body, getting all the focus. Every human being sometimes gets sick to a different degree. Even for someone who has never caught a cold, there must be a time they get sick due to perhaps aging, which is a natural process for our body. It is not a curse word, but all human beings have no choice but to go through sickness and healing, and through which, they gradually grow into a mature person. (could be harmed, of course.) In that process, the sickness, or disease, at the center of your life creates a story of its own kind that is often made into ...

China Export Case

Export Case   China Export Case Online advertisement and strong sales of children's books during the pandemic   2022.02.14   Recently, I visited an exhibition held in the National Fold Museum of Korea on “Our Lives Beyond Epidemics.” From the period of the Three States, Goryeo, the Joseon Dynasty, to the modern and present-day, epidemics have always been a part of Korean history. Diseases that emerged from wars, changes in the natural environment, or foreign sources have made life miserable for people. Maybe it was our ancestors' persistence to get over hardships that led us to live a life today, accumulating all the knowledge on overcoming challenges. Even in the present day, human beings defeated pandemics several times. However, the recent one caused by COVID-19 neutralized our pride in cutting-edge science and technology. The pandemic has lingered for more than three years now, and this may be the sign that it is time for us to coexist with diseases.For the...
