There’s no more hope left for Earth… – There’s only one way to prevent the extinction of humankind! – Doctor, what is it? It’s a bacterium that can survive for hundreds of millions of years, even in extreme environments. We’ll spread it across the universe. If even one of them happens to land in a place suitable for life, the surviving bacteria will keep dividing and evolving. Eventually, a being similar to humans will emerge, and given enough time, it might even surpass the civilization we’ve built. That way, the pursuit of “the meaning of life” can continue endlessly.

In the comic ‘The 500 Million Year Button,’ you can receive 10 million won just by pressing a button. But in reality, the person who presses it has their consciousness trapped in a void-like virtual world for 500 million years. Because those memories are erased and you return to the moment you pressed it, it feels like you’re getting money for doing absolutely nothing. I don’t think I would press that button. The version of me suffering for 500 million years feels like someone being exploited for labor on the other side of the planet, allowing me to purchase cheap … 더 보기 →

What’s with that tumbler and eco-bag? They say if you don’t use them for long enough, they’re actually worse for the environment than disposables. And companies throw away so much more that what we do barely makes a difference. That’s why I’m trying to use them as long as possible. And I think we should also speak up to companies and buy from those that care about the environment. Anyway, I’m just trying to do whatever I can. … You look like you’ve lost some weight. I’ve been eating plant-based lately. Aren’t plants living beings too? You might hurt your … 더 보기 →

The thought suddenly crossed my mind Maybe I’ve been living for tens of thousands of years? I just can’t remember because it was so long ago I used to think, “What’s the point of reincarnation if you can’t remember?” “I wrote this comment?” But I can’t even properly remember what I did a year ago… “I remember everything now!” If my memory were to become much better Wouldn’t that not be me anymore? gryeo.com

A penny, please. How pitiful… But I can’t help you. Once you start receiving help, you’ll get used to it. No matter how hard life gets, you know you must never commit a crime, right? Hang in there~ – What were we talking about again? – You said you watched the movie Joker. So what, you think others don’t have it tough? Does everyone start riots or commit acts of terror just because life is hard? No matter how hard it gets, you have to keep trying and never give up. At the very least, don’t commit crimes. – Anyway, … 더 보기 →

Refreshing morning~ Do you think money is everything? I’m not doing that! Maybe it’s because you live in the countryside, but you don’t seem to know how the world is these days. Nowadays, even in schools, kids from poor families are looked down upon~ What!? (My kids?) (I can’t let that happen! Money! I need to earn more money!) (Get ready! Because we’re going to be as successful as you!) -It’s a very dangerous job, are you sure you want to do it? -Yes! I said I’ll do it! An even more refreshing morning~ gryeo.com

Lately, I’ve often been suffering in silence Maybe I’m just sensitive, or maybe it’s all an exaggeration, but life itself has felt heavy There were moments when I was consumed by the fear that I might soon die Trapped in a frail body, unable to do the things I wanted, only wasting time while suffering—it was unbearably frustrating If this were a game, I would have just logged out right away… But if I keep holding on, holding on, and in the end simply grow old and die, I’d like to tell myself this: You’ve endured all the way here, … 더 보기 →

Height and weight—both below standard… Rejected! – Sir, isn’t this ethically wrong? – What are you talking about!? We’re doing this for the prosperity of the avian race! For the prosperity of birds!! 20 years later How beautiful this is… At last, birds have… gone extinct from avian flu.

“Even this tiresome cleaning is finally coming to an end.” There is no need at all to think about what happens after I die, so why do people sort out their belongings in advance? The saying, “Even if the world were to end tomorrow, I would plant an apple tree,” can sound like a cry to not lose one’s humanity until the very end.

How do you view South Korea’s population decline? The birth rate is the lowest, and the suicide rate is among the highest. It could actually be seen as an opportunity. With fewer people, it might help stabilize housing prices, and if there’s a severe labor shortage, we can just bring in immigrants. Recently, a series of mysterious disappearances have occurred. A letter was even found in which someone claimed responsibility for kidnapping and murder. What are your thoughts on this? It could actually be seen as an opportunity. With fewer people, it might help stabilize housing prices, and if there’s … 더 보기 →

Cheer up. One of the biggest misconceptions people have is this: They think that abilities that emerge easily and quickly out of luck are “talent,” while those that appear later and through difficulty are the result of “effort.” But in reality, without talent, you can’t succeed—even later. What’s truly great about those who succeed late is that they trusted their own judgment and had the courage to take on the challenge. — So, can’t effort beat talent? — I don’t think it can. But no one knows *when* a talent will manifest. — Isn’t that the same thing, though? Sounds … 더 보기 →

There’s a statue inside the stone When you strike the stone, if the front part breaks, that’s success If the back part breaks, that’s failure But you can’t see the complete statue by only breaking the front part If everything goes exactly as I expect, I can’t truly know myself and this world If only the back keeps breaking, once the back is completely broken— Now it’s time for the front part to break
