Description 작품 소개

This is a short story by Kim Seungok published in Sasanggye in 1965. All three characters in this story have been alienated from society and feel a deep sense of despair and ennui. They try to endure their ennui through meaningless conversations and games overnight. Through these characters, the work calmly depicts the tragedy of modern people who live as cogs in the wheel of society.

Author Bio 작가 소개

“It’s not true to say that Mujin has no noted product. I know what it is. It is the fog. When you went outside in the morning after getting out of bed, the fog would have surrounded Mujin, like enemy soldiers who had advanced in the night; and the mountains which normally surrounded the town would be gone, banished by the fog to some faraway, invisible place. … It couldn’t be grasped in the hand, and yet it was clearly there, surrounding men, cutting them off from things at a distance.” (《안개》, 스타북스, 2022 / Record of a Journey to Mujin, ASIA, 2014) Kim Seungok is a leading literary figure of 1960s Korea, known for his portrayals of ordinary people lost in feelings of emptiness and loss against the backdrop of Korea’s rapid urbanization and industrialization.
