[New Release] 'The Modern History of Small Things'

◆Modern History of the Small Things = This explains modern history easily and interestingly through the 'small things' frequently encountered and enjoyed in daily life. It delves into the lack of diversity in food culture through chicken. It lists anecdotes such as the legendary pitcher Kim Taewon's failed chicken restaurant to highlight the fierce competition in the chicken market. It points to the monopoly of chicken by a few companies as the cause, criticizing that the diversity of flavors is not guaranteed.

"'On the 13th at around 7:30 PM, the president of the student council of ○○ University, Mr. Amugae, who had a pre-arrest warrant issued for violating the Gypsy Act, was caught and arrested at a Kentucky Chicken store in Jung-dong, Seongnam City, by the ○○ Police Station.' This was during the harsh era of the Roh Tae-woo government. However, a friend who read the article was curious about something unrelated. 'Did he eat chicken before being caught, or not?' Honestly, I am also curious. How much did the twenty-two-year-old young man, who was wanted, want to eat chicken? The reason I easily empathize with his desire is that we also like chicken."
