[New Release] 'Namguk Calls' and More

◆ Antarctica Calls = The author is a marine scientist. He was the first in the world to discover a hydrothermal vent on the central ridge of the Antarctic Circle and named it 'Mujin.' The name is taken from Kim Seung-ok's novel "Mujin Gihaeng." It fully captures the shape of the hydrothermal vent reminiscent of Mujin's fog and the uncertain emotions felt during the exploration process. This sensibility is also reflected in the stories of nature and humans he unfolds. (Written by Park Soong-hyun / East Asia)

◆ The Era of the Individual Comes = In the past, individuals were merely marginalized, forced to belong to communities. Now, anyone can work independently through knowledge, capital, and personal networks. As this value grows, one must strategically expand their own content and increase social influence. The author presents a life where one becomes their own brand and platform, gaining freedom from time and money. (Written by Seo Jun-ryeol / Wiseberry)

◆ Women Walking the City = The original title is "Flaneuse." It is the feminine form of the French masculine noun "flaneur," meaning a person who wanders aimlessly. It explores how the meaning of this act changes when women begin to walk the city. "The city is made up of invisible boundaries." (Written by Lauren Elkin / Translated by Hong Han-byeol / Banbi)
