This book handles human culture, including socialization, culture exchange and change, gender role, being an adult, play and festivals, marriage and family, the kinds of power, the role of religion, etc, in general, through the imaginary alien report. In other words, the author deals with what is to become a social member, how the role of male and female is decided, what is to be an adult, why there are various marriage systems in the world, where the power comes from, and what the role of religion is, etc.

Through the voice of aliens who want to settle down in the earth, the writer sends his message on these matters sometimes humorously, and sometimes seriously. By doing so, he provides us with the story that sees through the essence of human culture naturally. This book, which interestingly shows the diverse human cultures with an eye of alien, in other words, an eye of anthropology, will help readers to nurture their view and culture in a more mature manner how to understand each culture.
