Written by Roh Myung Woo


The author does not show off his knowledge by cramming into theories. Instead, he follows the meaning of living in the world by going beyond customs and languages of the existing academic area buried in sociology for sociology itself. Episodes and stories of worldly affairs captured by subtle sensibility and critical view reveal their own secrets and lies, and show the scenes of this world, which is beautiful and ugly, and good and bad at the same time. The stories of various worldly affairs starting with common knowledge, sex, suicide, labor, laziness, human emotion, individual, death, etc, finally are connected with each other, and the luxurious and depressed panorama of world is presented in this book. The author tries to promote ‘better life’ by dealing with worldly affairs. This book, which covers the accumulated sociological insights and common knowledge world, offers us a new way of understanding today’s world.
