"Breaking Boundaries in Literature: The Nobel Prize and Korea's Untold Stories" is a journey that transcends the familiar boundaries of literary critique. In this bold narrative, I delve into the heart of a question that has long troubled me: why does a prestigious award like the Nobel Prize often recognize works that fail to capture the full spectrum of the human experience, let alone the complex cultural sentiments of nations like Korea? At first glance, it may seem as though this is a book about literary criticism—a questioning of how one-sided perspectives come to dominate global recognition. But at its core, this work is much more than a critique of literary bias. It is an exploration of the multiverse itself, a challenge to the idea that the Nobel Prize, or any human-made institution, can truly grasp the depth of experience that exists beyond anthropocentric narratives. In a world defined by quantum uncertainty and the principles of relativity, why do we still cling to the notion that a singular "truth" or "universal" story can represent all of us? I ask this as someone who has spent years observing the increasing polarization in literature—where binary thinking, political ideologies, and human-centered concerns dominate. But the natural world, the cosmos in which we exist, operates on principles far beyond our limited comprehension. Could it be that in seeking to capture a singular "universal human experience," we are ignoring the more profound and chaotic truths that surround us?

The Enigmatic Coat of Fathers : An Engineer's Son's Emotional Journal I am a writer. And ironically, I struggle with words. Despite publishing books, I often find more comfort in equations than in sentences. Perhaps it's because I come from a background in engineering and the sciences. This latest book, however, is about my father. Korean fathers, unlike their Western counterparts, are shaped by Confucian traditions. They are stoic, burdened with the weight of financial responsibility, and rarely express emotion. An emotionally detached son, like me, never truly understood his father. And now, this son is attempting to write about him. But much like the first paragraph of this text, this one also feels awkward. How can someone who neither understands the emotions of others nor expresses his own, write about family ties? It's a contradiction I live with every day. My father, every day as he left for work, wore a strange coat. And now, as his son—a man defined by an XY chromosome and an inability to grasp emotions—I find myself standing before his death, attempting to decipher our emotions through numbers and formulas. As you know, South Korea faces a grave demographic challenge, with low birth rates and an aging population. The youth are avoiding marriage, even shying away from relationships altogether. Why is that? Could it be, in some way, due to the "mysterious coat"? When I was young, Korean fathers seemed like towering mountains—imposing, distant, unapproachable. But when I faced my father's cold, lifeless body, why did those once-broad shoulders seem so small and frail? In this wheel of emotional contradictions, can we ever truly understand one another? This is the story of a son and his father, intertwined in the equations of pain and the waves of emotion. Have you solved the mystery yet?

The Illusion Mirror : The Transformation of a Finnish Girl Studying Abroad in Korea Do we truly possess free will? Is the self a real entity, or is it merely an illusion? Irena Löykanto, once a Finnish scholar studying civil engineering in South Korea, found herself entangled in a shocking theory. Through her exploration of fluid dynamics, hydrology, and soil mechanics, she began to suspect that the world she lived in might be a simulation. To her, everything in existence—soil, water, air, even light—felt like moving "data packets" within an artificial design. Her research blurred the line between reality and fiction, leading her to the unsettling realization that the universe itself might be nothing more than an elaborate illusion, like a mirror reflecting endlessly. Even after her time, she exists within someone's record, gazing at us from the void, questioning the concept of the "self" and realizing how hollow the idea of free will truly is. In the end, she understands that what we've trusted as free will was just another part of nature, governed by unseen forces. The Illusion Mirror poses profound philosophical questions about self, reality, and fate, challenging the reader to reflect deeply. Do we really have the power to choose our path, or is everything already designed as part of someone else's plan? As you follow Irena's journey, the boundaries between illusion and truth blur, and you may find yourself questioning whether your own life is part of a grand simulation. By chance or destiny, you've come across this book—but perhaps that, too, was predetermined.
