I was not intimate with the original book.
From a young age, I liked to play outside or watch television. The atmosphere of the house, where the television was on all day, would have played a part, but there was no patience to sit focused on the book.
I often read the traditional fairy tales and great man exhibitions that I had at home and felt the hotness of my heart. In addition to books related to majors that are mandatory for college students, they only found and read popular self-development books and classic novels at that time.
Rather than having a good book, he went to a bookstore because he was compelled to read, which is an essential act of an educated person. Numerous quotes related to the book helped me to keep my ears thin.

It was only three years ago that I started to read as if I had a good meal every day.
When I was 26 months old and fully committed to the day care center and vowed to work again, I accidentally took a class called 'Picture Essay.'
We had a strong relationship with the people we met there, and we read books, wrote, and painted together. As a result, the country naturally became more trained to objectify the world where people and people belong.
The more I studied with various books, the more I lost my voice. I spent two years looking back and expressing myself through books.
Therefore, I understand why Professor Jeong Jae-seung reads the book 'pleasure' in a sad job.
I know that I used to blame myself for being persistent and playful because I didn't stay in front of the book more often when I was younger, but I know now that I didn't see a really interesting book. Now the book is my best friend after the bridegroom, and the list of books I want to read is growing day by day.
I like essays kind of books. The essay has a sincere thought and reflection of the artist, who goes through the calm and sometimes huge struggle of life. When you meet a good essay book, you feel as if you are opening a gift of wisdom that is piled up in their inner world. When reading deeply, you may find comfort and empathy as if you were in intimate conversation with a true adult in each age.
The artist's sharp and sensitive view of the world makes us look into the world and, of course, look at it.
While reading a book, my cold water is splashed on my inner side, and I feel fresh, but in the end, the generosity of understanding me and others deepens a little bit deeper.
I also like growth novels and historical novels. The story of the protagonist's growth comes from the contradictions of society and the unfair world and the complicated relationship with others, making mistakes, crossing out, collapsing, asking questions, and making their own way. In addition, I feel infinite respect for writers who create vivid and detailed narratives based on clear testimony.
That's why I visited my favorite author's lecture even when I was in Korea.
I stumbled upon the news that there was an encounter with writer Eunhee Kyung through a French Korean newspaper.
On Saturday when I was confused by the crowd of angry pissers and the congestion of public transportation, I went out to meet Eun Hee-kyung.
Arriving at the 2nd floor of a bookstore that specializes in Asian books, Lee Eun-kyung's rich, red hair curls across his shoulders, and a middle-aged French man wearing glasses and a beard with a large body that creates a typical western professor's image. I sat with this interpreter. Since there were advertisements in Korean newspapers and sites, Koreans thought they would come a lot, and only 27 Korean readers had me, including me. In the book Comforting the Boy, the author first talked about the book for about 30 minutes, and then had an hour and a half to answer questions with readers. I haven't read that yet, but everything was interesting because I'm my favorite writer.
It is a framework prevalent in Korean society with a deep root of Confucian culture and a strong pride of being a single nation. The family should look like this, the family relationship should look like this, the single mom should look like this, and the youth should look like this. And the violence of a system that traps independent and free individuals within the framework and evaluates other people's lives.
The protagonist boy is a minor being with no father and no friends. The boy freely listens to music and expresses himself through music.
The artist is said to have actually opened his eyes to the world of hip-hop through his hip-hop music. My son, who always wears headphones and listens to music, feels that she is excluding her mother from the conversation, but she has heard a lot of sympathy when she listens to music with interest by chewing the title of the album. The content of the song was also a story of a person who was hurt by the violence of 'make me like'. By listening to the song, the world of hip hop was understood and it was an opportunity to write a novel. Eun Hee-kyung, the artist, informed her that she used a lot of stories about herself and her son as an episode.
This book is a story of communication to the other we all have.
To understand the lives of others
Write a novel.
Literary imagination is not an unusual new material, but an understanding of others is an imagination of literature. We are different from most people, not race or gender differences.
By reading the novel, we can open our hearts to others we didn't know and understand that we are different. So I write a novel.
Eunhee Kyung Author
The reason why I feel pleasure when I read a book and the writer's mind to write fiction is the same, so I understand why I'm attracted to this book and why Korean readers are so enthusiastic about this person.
During the Q & A session, French readers asked questions about the culture of Korean society and the characteristics of Korean literature. It also asked how Korean readers read the author's books and how they differ from French literature.
It was a short time, but I felt that the lives and thoughts of French readers, Korean readers, and people are more similar than others. When I actually met Eun Hee-kyung, I could see another attraction from the book. After all the steps, I took pictures and gave thanks and imagined what I would look like in middle age. Can my life and words reach someone's mind as if I'm excited to see the artist? Can someone excite me?
After the weekend, I went to the French International Book Fair.
I purchased a ticket for 8 euros (10,000 won) in advance and entered the internet.
The exhibition hall, which is about the size of Korea's KINTEX, exhibits public relations centers in the Middle East, Africa, and Europe, and books by local authors translated into French.
This exhibition is like experiencing a collaboration that combines the merits of a large bookstore and a mart. As you stroll with ease, you can walk between the colorful and diverse books and choose books as soon as your eyes are inserted, regardless of anyone. As each publisher publishes a booth with their own interiors and actively promotes books and new books that represent them, I can taste the world of new books beyond the kind of books I usually care about. Thanks to this, I learn new things about me and what kind of cover style, material, and genre of books I am interested in.
The overall atmosphere of the exhibition was free. If you had a publisher that you always looked at, it was an open atmosphere where you could talk casually with the employees of the company.
At various booths, discussions and meetings with the authors were carried out simultaneously. On one side was the place where meetings were held with publishers and entrepreneurs or writers from all over the world. I was sitting in a one-on-one discussion as if people had a blind date at a table in a certain space.
It was also noticeable that elementary and secondary school students came to the group with their teachers and enjoyed book exhibitions. The students gathered in a satisfactory expression, holding in their hands all the shopping bags containing promotional materials from the graphic noble and comic booths.
Certainly, there were more publishers who specialized in graphic novels, comic books, and picture books than Korean book fairs. Some booths are lined with people, so when you get closer, aren't the artists painting their own pictures, not autographs? It was a tremendous event that portrays portraits of readers in books they buy or bring. Looking at it, the authors would be very tired, but I wondered how it felt to talk with readers who love their books and draw their faces.
If I was good at French, I would have enjoyed it more abundantly. Nowadays, it's hard to feel the fact that living in a country and not being able to speak its language can make people shrink and shabby.
It's been six months since I started studying French, saying that it would be so difficult for others to learn a new language. As a result, I don't like the situation where stuttering French is embarrassed or ignored. You have to repeatedly use what you have learned in real situations, but you're busy.
Like the children I saw in the book fair, I am proud to masturbate with the promotional material I received as a gift and pledge next year.
If he'll be in France at this time next year, he will vow to talk about the books of the casterman publisher and the books of Bastien Vivès in French Book Fair 2020.
