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. (Instagram: @a_dok_bang)   Most countries in the world today are deeply concerned about their aging populations. It is ironic that while we are living in an era of prosperity, benefiting from industrialization and advanced technology, the number of young people who will take the lead in the country is shrinking. This is also true for Korea, a country with a rapidly aging population. This often leads to conflicts between the young and the old, as they have different goals. This uncomfortable reality makes me wonder what it would be like if it were fiction. The world of fiction either nakedly shows reality or distorts it. This is why we read fictio...

The MZ Generation Reads New Non-Fiction

Topic   The MZ Generation Reads New Non-Fiction   2021.09.06   When did the golden age of non-fiction begin?   There is a genre that boasts of being at the best place in the bookstores. It is non-fiction, in particular essays, a genre where people speak frankly about their personal stories."The golden era of non-fiction has arrived" has become too cliché. Essays were once treated as "useless writings" until the beginning of the 2000s, when novels or books about money and economics prevailed in the markets. However, as mega-hit essay collections emerged entering the 2010s, such underestimation dissipated. Publishers, who belatedly realized that essays make money, have begun to fiercely launch essay collections into the market.For example, Kim Nan-Do’s You Become an Adult After Wavering for Thousand Times (Munhakdongne Publishing), Hyemin Sunim’s The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down (Suo Books), Lee Byung-Ryul’s Attraction (Dal Publishers), and Lee Oi-Su...

The City of Islands and Stories,Tongyeong of South Gyeongsang Province

The City of Islands and Stories,Tongyeong of South Gyeongsang Province   2019.06.10     Sometimes there are words you try to avoid using because they are tired clichés, but at times you have no other choice but to use them. So you take these 'dead phrases' out of the drawer, shake the dust off with a disdainful look on your face. One of these situations would be when people use "yehyang (a location from whence many artists have hailed)" as a prefix for the city of Tongyeong.   There, the 'Jaengi' lived Tongyeong of South Gyeongsang Province. This was the location where Admiral Yi Sun-sin led the Battle of Hansan Island, attempting to fend off enemies from the Korean Peninsula. In honor of his memory, the city's name was Chungmu until 1995, Yi's posthumous name. The city's current name was derived from a phrase that referred to a naval command that had jurisdiction over the three provinces of Gyeongsang, Jeolla and Chungcheong.
