I want to say in advance that consistently writing a diary doesn't necessarily change your life. Instead, I believe that writing a diary allows you to protect 'yourself'. When you're worn out and stressed all day by various events or relationships with people, you often don't have time to reflect on yourself. Time passes without you realizing it, and when you can no longer endure this lifestyle, you'll ask yourself, 'What am I doing right now?' You need time, even if just for a moment, to think about and answer this question. It's time to look back at yourself. - Jo Kyung-guk, "How to Write a Diary"

Incheon Bus Terminal Basement Floor Terminal Restaurant Drivers, laborers, and drifters Anyone can walk in and serve themselves heartily whether it's a set meal or noodles A place where you serve yourself generously Even strangers to each other Recommend seats and yield to one another A place where people eat Just by the dialect of your hometown Saying you came on the same bus, you're a companion People who care about each other Ah, here is the world of people I had forgotten about Truly healthy and humane people Everyone was gathered here, eating I also had noodles at that place After eating my fill and paying five thousand won My heart felt fuller than my stomach And I found myself smiling foolishly At everyone I met.

If you're not ready, brave enough, or willing to be happy, you'll inevitably be swept away by misfortune and lose your mind. See, that's what happened to me. Loneliness wins everything. Afraid of happiness, you hesitate to embrace it, fearing you'll be cast aside again if you lose interest. Congratulations. They say they're lost now and can't come back. They're so consumed by darkness, they can't be found. Why are you crying? This is the world you wished for. See, you actually wanted to be happy enough to die, didn't you?

Just walking down the road like usual, I made eye contact with a dandelion. A dandelion full of seeds. I smiled and brought the dandelion to my mouth. Fuuu- As one seed clung tightly to the dandelion's body, I blew even harder.

Blooming... Perhaps, it might be something far more cruel. When I see others bloom, my own bud grows impatient. As others' brilliance deepens, the roots of my discord spread further. Then, the moment my reflection appeared in the pond, I finally realized something was wrong. My lover's blooming stirred my malice, and made me curse every moment we spent together. Rather than stopping and cursing my lover's blooming, I will cover my eyes and ears and refuse to face their blooming. For a lifetime, I will make myself turn away from my lover's full bloom. Blooming. How cruel it is.
