Book Information & Summary
Written by Lee So Young
Getting a job is a task that no one can avoid, regardless of generation, from teenagers to those in their sixties. There is a young man standing in front of that task. Man-ju, a 30-year-old cleaner. In a world where even the natural environment has been largely destroyed and is literally class-divided, Man-ju is a young man with nothing, not even what is called “connection”. There is only one way for Man-ju to escape from the poverty that has become so tiresome, which is to pass the ‘Super League’ of Sunhwa Group. Among the job leagues, Super League is an abbreviation that refers only to job exams created by some of the world's top companies. Man-ju has challenged the Super League exactly 10 times, or 10 years. Afterwards, he turned away from the Super League due to the problem of making a living, and suddenly, after three years of living a simple life, luck suddenly comes to him. “Don't you want to take the Super League? Don't give up. “Take what's in my bag.” What did the old man, who was about to die, give to Man-ju? What truth will Man-ju face in Sun-hwa's Super League?
This novel makes us think about how far our value as human beings is valid in the face of ever-advancing technology in 2050, when robots are commercialized everywhere in society and easily cross over into virtual reality.
