The main character, Gregor, is a company employee.
When he woke up from an uneasy dream one morning,
He found himself turning into a vicious pest.
Unbelievable reality,
The family is shocked.
Frustration and anxiety soon becomes a complaint.
The main character responsible for the family's livelihood
It just turns into something that looks ugly.
There's a possibility of a temporary family relationship in a conflict,
In the end, a little bit of a quarrel arises.
On the back of his father's apple, he was stabbed.
As the wound worsened, he died.
Kafka expressed the existential crisis of the early 20th century
and the existential instability of existence.
He is the representative author of existentialism literature.
But where does the anxiety of that being come from?
I add socio-psychological interpretation of transformation.
Gregor was responsible for the family's livelihood
Only members of the family
It is a society where only one person can protect the family.
The presence of the main character is the value of the eldest son.
He has an unavoidable obligation.
The family turns into a parasite.
He becomes the host of the family.
The transformation of the host destroys the existence of the family.
Protector of the home without alternative
The downfall of the guardian is the downfall of the family.
Independence consciousness is not formed in a parasitic family.
A family member who exists only through a guardian
The feeling of having a deterrent
Concerns about your own survival
There is only aversion to the inability of the guardian.
Just as the family is not qualified to criticize the protagonist,
Nobody deserves to criticize a family whose guardians are bound to be parasitic.
We can’t blame ourselves for lacking courage.
It is because there is no power to escape the destiny of the parasitic human being.
What made them parasitic was that,
It is a human society that condemns them.
They are the fragile members of society that we have ignored.
Who dares to throw stones at the family!
If you understand the story of a family that emerges from your transformation in your personal spirit world
It is correct to follow the usual general interpretation.
However, if we look at the social system and the social psychology it is forcing, the results will be different.
First, the fall of the family due to unemployment or dismissal.
Second, it is a family that falls into cost burden due to loss of economic power due to accident or illness and worse.
In both cases, without personal or social safeguards
One day you would find yourself transformed into a monster.
It is not your choice.
Your family did not foresee nor prepared.
Metamorphosis happens one day suddenly.
Physical deformation due to accidents and huge treatment costs
I think that's the main character in Kafka's metamorphosis.
It is also why we need social safety devices.
What individuals can do for a short time,
If the value is recognized as universal value in our society
Gregor may no longer be transformed.
I hope that our society will develop into a society that protects its members.
