When I die, my nose will probably be the first thing to rot. I've been inhaling stenches from the day I was born, that's why. I'm sure the smell of toxic chemicals traveling through my capillary veins to my brain will make me stupid someday. It doesn't matter, anyways. They say that the more you use your head, the harder it is to live in this world. Father once said, "I used my head and landed in this hell of a place. If only I stayed to raise goats on the mountain or farm in the fields like the other young men... If only I had known to be thankful to the gods for being able to come home to the smell of creamy dahl baht (lentil soup and rice) after washing in the river...""

Next to me, Mr. Yi Gi-hyeong was crying. A poet over seventy years old... Ah, who said...that an old poet is a poet who writes poems even when he is old? What is a poem to him? What can it be, and what can't it be? Why is he imprisoned here and yelling in the middle of this enlightened and civilized capitalist world? Why is he crying? Why is he shouting in a hoarse voice for a reunification that can never be?"

"Hye-jin's heart, is alone." I had no idea what the fellow was talking about_whether he was saying that my wife actually had one heart, or that she considered herself to be on her own. Then, as he put his beer can down, the fellow asked for a pen and paper and began to draw. The first thing to appear on the page was a forest. It wasn't the kind of pine forest we might be used to, but something more like a jungle_but at any rate, in this forest lay a baby, its eyes closed. "It was forest. I was baby. I was alone. I was sleeping." Then the fellow drew two eyes on the baby and began to draw tears on either side of the baby's face. Then the baby in the drawing began to cry"

Part of the story Her eyes drew to the dark gray jacket hung on the wall. The draped jacket made her imagine that only the old man's exterior self had been left there, decent-enough on the surface, yet deprived of its soul. The effect seemed to be doubled by the black trousers hanging from under the jacket, as if the old man had put them together as a coordinate. He had even casually placed a beret over the collar of the jacket. She felt that if she lifted the beret, the old man's face would pop out_the face that looked like a crumbling bar of washing soap. Resisting the temptation to lift the beret, she moved on toward the desk.On the table was a copy of the Bible that the old man was transcribing and an open, widely ruled notebook one would expect to see grade schoolers using. Had he finished copying all of the biographies, all of the twenty-odd volumes? Probably, he was not transcribing the Bible out of any sort of religious faith. He was not Christian, nor did he have any other religion. She found it rather ridiculous and useless for a non-Christian to transcribe the Bible. Especially for a person with a hand that trembled terribly, a hand he couldn't even use to spoon his duck-bone broth properly."

Part of the story "Sometimes I think about my own death. I think I'd like to be cremated and have the ashes sealed inside a can. I don't like the idea of rotting in the soil underneath a burial mound, and I sure don't want to be stored in one of those marble urns at a crematorium. I've worked at a canning factory my whole life. My whole life I've handled cans. They're making cans with better materials now, and it's become easier to open the lids, which tells me that the world is becoming a better place to live. The changing designs of the can labels tell me that people's tastes are changing. Their actual taste for food also changes. I learn about that when new canned foods are developed or flavors are modified. In other words, I've learned about the world through this can." "If the world were like an empty can, we'd be in trouble.""

Part of the story Kong says if he had known about all of this ahead of time, he would have given up on things like preparing for employment earlier on, and traveled a lot and had slept with women to his heart's content. Then all of a sudden he blurts out: "Do you know who's the bitterest person in the world at this moment?" "Well... rich people?" "The person whose last orthodontics appointment is tomorrow." I laugh loudly. He continues: the man getting discharged from the army service tomorrow; the college prep student receiving his admission letter tomorrow; the head of a family who's finally able to own a house for the first time tomorrow; the woman giving birth tomorrow; the baby born tomorrow... The people who feel bitter the most aren't those who already have a lot, but those who have a future to await. "You know, Halley's Comet." "Yeah, what about it?"Kong gazes up at the distant sky. "Will it still come here even after the earth's disappeared?""

"Gentlemen, instead of introducing ourselves, we'd like to make a little presentation. We believe that testing computer games is like unraveling a tangled ball of yarn. We'll show you how to unravel the kinks by patiently loosening the yarn step by step." I thought we had a terrific concept. And the reaction from the interviewing panel was good. As we pulled the blue and red yarn from the paper bag, I thought I detected a stir of interest from the panel. But we had a problem. We had tangled the yarn too much in the waiting room. Beads of sweat dotted our foreheads by the end of the first minute. Three minutes later the situation was no better. After five minutes our bodies were drenched in sweat."

The clock on the wall of the entrance said it was past midnight. I inserted the phone card that I'd borrowed from Jeong-hun, a freshman in the Korean literature department. The posters and slogans were plastered on the walls like roof tiles, the expanse of pictures slowly spanning a whole history. I dialed 10 numbers including the regional code. Min-hui answered right away, as if she'd been guarding her phone. "...I'll tell you the rest tomorrow. I gotta go now. I borrowed this card," I told her. "God, you're such an idiot! Driving me out of mind. You're ruining my life you know!" "I'm sorry," I said. "Take the first bus in the morning, okay?" "I will." "I'll be waiting for you by the cafeteria door." "Okay, I'll see you tomorrow." We went back and forth, waiting for the other to hang up first, until Min-hui practically yelled into my ear, "Moo-hyun, you've eaten, right?" "I can take it." "Why'd you join the demonstration in the first place? You should have stayed with me." "I gotta go. Good night.""

Wake up and look!" she said. We got off the bus in front of Dongfangmingzhu and she suddenly screamed, "The old man is still on the bus! He didn't listen to me. He must have dozed off!" Before I realized the old man wasn't with us, the woman had already hailed a taxi and was getting in. "Miss Ahn, don't move. Just wait here," the woman said, and raced after the bus.It was muggy. The sun poured out heat. Could she catch up with the bus? And why? Why would she want to find him? Had she become attached to him in just a few days? Even though he infuriated her? I couldn't understand her"

Whenever I was out of luck finding a place to sleep, I snuck into Chima's room. Chima let me stay the night without taking off my pants. Once I suggested I pay for the room by taking off my pants. But he said if I really wanted to take them off, he wouldn't mind, but not in return for the room. I started to unzip my pants, saying that there was no difference between the two. But he hurriedly zipped them up himself and said the difference was so great that he couldn't possibly explain it in words. As for me, I was willing to take off my pants to pay for the room, but I couldn't do it otherwise. Detecting a stir in his eyes, I felt as if I was doing it in front of my dad. I had often found an inexplicable stir in Dad's eyes. He said it was because he was anxious. Because he was alive, he felt uneasy about making a living. Dad might be feeling better now in that he had stopped living."
