1. OCCUPY WALL STREET and the problem of capitalism
- "Occupy Wall Street is leaderless resistance movement with people of many colors, genders and political persuasions. The one thing we all have in common is that We Are The 99% that will no longer tolerate the greed and corruption of the 1%."
http://occupywallst.org/

- The value of money differs to people. Meaning of 1 million won can be nothing to an employer, but can be really important thing to an employee. With this aspect, it is obvious that we should distribute money to the poor more.
2. low birth rate and the future society
- The tremendously expensive price to raise a child is forcing the poor people not to give a birth to a baby. This leads to the collapse of the current system, which is hardly held by low-paid workers.

3. Marx's das kapital and the lesson we should get from
- The owner of house earned the money simply by borrowing his house. The bank will earn money by interests also. This is quite similar to the analysis of Marx, who viewed the monopoly of the means of production is the reason of the gap between the rich and the poor. Although the communism failed, there certainly is a lesson to learn from it, especially nowadays when the problem of capitalism is highlighted.

Ode to a code

Dear code,
    If I write ode in C, that would be code. Sorry for starting with lame joke, but anyway I'm gonna start writing ode to you, code.
   Code, sometimes I feel sad when no one notices you and the world you've changed. They don't know even writing this ode is under your control. With your effort, this content goes into the database, making people available to see this. Not only this, but also the google's complicate searching algorithms, facebook's finding friends skill and League of Legends's team matching skill - They are all made by you. The world we are living in have become efficient and productive by you. You deserve more concerns and understanding considering your endeavor.
   Code, sometimes my heart be full when I'm writing you. I always think the easiest way to change the world for 18 years old boy is to write a fantastic code with creative ideas. Actually, you are the idea itself. You are the process idea becoming substance. You enable me to change the world. I appreciate even the slightest help you have made. My faithful assistant, I appreciate a lot.
   Code, sometimes but I'm irritated by your fastidious taste. You don't pass difference in spelling, even the capital letter. You are particular about the order also. Some sentences must be the first at your body. All of this trivial regulations frustrate me so hard that I don't even want to look your face again. I'm confused who's the master - Is it me who writes you or you who make me follow your rule?
   Code, but I know all those irritating regulations and rules are for me. I know you exist to help and serve me to the full extent. I know your first purpose is to function exactly as I have wrote. Even i said sometimes i got irritated by you, but I am amazed every time watching you function after I finish coding. Where else can I find a devoted assistant who follows my command accurately? You are the one irreplaceable.


  Code, before I called your name you were just words. When I called your name you came to me and became a program. Code, let's change the world by us. I hope you follow me as you have done, I know you will.

In-Class Reflective Essay: "Spring" in Kim Ki Duk's Film



  What a little monk found funny was, in fact, extreme pain to fish, frog and the snake. The little monk realizes it after he got punished with same way by an old monk. This is life. You can never sympathy with someone or something before you get a similar experience to those. The reason we can sympathy is that we have experienced many events and people directly or directly before. Thus we are watching the world above our recognition base formed before.
  Mr. Kim Jung Hwan told me similar thing. He said that we tend to say "I know you", but actually this means "I know you who I know." It made me reflect in many ways. How many times I thought I know him/her and evaluated easily, and how can it be different from what the small monk did in the movie. I was, without even realizing it, hanging stones to them. Experience I got from the movie has widen my view to the world.
 With Buddhism's perspective, what he monk did has another meaning. Buddhism taught that people has to pay for their karma of their life in the life after their death. This can be said that you have to be responsible what you did. The little monk got a rebirth by hanging stone to his back, which is a same thing he did to animals, and he suffered from pain and found out the animals he made suffer. This behavior enabled him to repay the karma he made, so he could be responsible to what he did.
  You reap what you sow. It seems so evident, but a valuable life lesson. This is what karma means and what the little monk did. The belief that bad guys would be punished and good guys would be praised was the impetus making the world better place. We should keep this belief and meaning of karma.
  Also there is a wisdom of 'nothing' in the name of the movie, spring summer fall winter and spring. After winter, the spring comes finally. What we think confusing and disrupting returns to its position afterwards. I don't know what life the little monk will live, it would be tranquil afterwards. Let it be, this is another wisdom the movie lessons. In many ways, the movie has many Buddhism meanings.

Review : KMLA life

  *This is the review written with my personal perspective, so it is extremely subjective. If you love KMLA so much that you can't bear any complaints of it, I would gently recommend  to press alt + F4 and go find something productive. If you are ready to read it, press ready.

ready
Overal Rating : ★☆☆☆☆
I have used educational service called KMLA about 2 years, an enough time to scrutinize it and recognize its advantage and disadvantage. I divided field of evaluation into 4 fields, quality of education, price, members and dormitory life.

1. quality of education ★★☆☆☆
- Compared to other (general) schools, the quality of education is rather fair. Actually it should be, considering the tremendous tuition we pay for. However, there were some classes barely having educational quality that it looked like better to study alone with books. There were also classes even decreased my educational interests in that subject. I liked the subject before the class, but it has changed because the teacher poorly taught the subject with tedious tone.
An elective system is one of the virtues KMLA has. It enables me to choose the subject I have interest in. It is an advantage that I can experience it earlier while other students would experience it in a university. It is, however, an obstacle that the option to choose classes is limited due to KMLA's small number of students. For example, I was forced to choose between classes I don't have any interests in some modules. So I would say this elective system is a limited system, having faults should be improved.
Teachers are actually the most important factor considering quality of education. It would be desirable if every teacher has the knowledge of the subject and a skill to convey that, but unfortunately not. They all have some degree of knowledge required to teach students. It is because school gives a consideration to applicants' education level seriously when they interview teacher applicants. However, the skill of teaching is as important as knowledge, and this is the one some of KMLA teachers lack of. It seems like they don't care about the difficulty, their tones or how students will get at all. This is the reason dropping the quality of education of KMLA heavily.

2. price ●☆☆☆☆ (a half star)
- The tuition for KMLA is enormous. It's even expensive than any of universities in Korea. Most of general parents cannot afford this, so it's not surprising people criticize KMLA as an elite school. If i have got an appropriate treatment for the money I(my parents) had pay for, I would not give that harsh score to this section. The problem is, I didn't. This education is poor even though I pay twice as much as other do to Korean universities , school facilities are nothing but just facilities and my room is consists of a desk and a bed. I can use 20 million won more wisely getting more great welfare and happiness.
Not only the tuition, but also other miscellaneous things cost so much. The price of a meal is 5000 won whereas I evaluate it 3000 won at most. I payed for a musical instrument five hundreds thousands won although I used it less than 10 hours in total. I have some doubts that school has a corruption connected to these problems, but I can't prove it.

3. members ★☆☆☆☆
This is the thing exactly I learned in KMLA

- As most of groups, KMLA have some good members and bad members. Those bad members are irritating and making me to realize how much I hate some people. Why is it irritating so much? It's because KMLA's so small and dormitory school, I have to watch them again and again. One of the characteristics people I hate are political. They intentionally approach to other students and use them to accomplish their goals. I believe that I'm sensitive and can figure out other people very easily by nature. Thus I can feel those intentions and artifice which irritate me and make me hate them. One of my friends said that it raises a mental problem to make people live in secluded area with limited people, and it is happening in KMLA. I totally agree with him, and can actually see it's happening. I just can't stand that I have to face everyday I can't bear with smiling face.

4. dormitory life ★☆☆☆☆
- Am i living in a dormitory or a prison? I can't even move to other rooms over 12'o clock and can't sleep before 11. This is not the life I pursue. I consider a freedom the most important value in my life and it directly against KMLA's dormitory life. Moreover, living with other people can be extremely irritating depends on roommates. In most of my KMLA life, the roommates were fine. I enjoy hanging out with them. However, I had a very uncomfortable experience with one of my roommates. Since then, I realized that living with other people can be very uncomfortable, and I'm not the one adaptable to this system.


In total, I'm evaluating KMLA very negatively. I would not recommend KMLA if people ask about KMLA. Maybe those negative evaluations are up to my problem not KMLA's. But KMLA should remind that if people start to get similar thoughts to mine to KMLA, KMLA cannot exist anymore.

Meta fiction : 302HO

   While many people believe that no one uses left room of 302, actually, there is a guy living in that room. The room was perfectly empty-at least looked perfectly empty. However, some of students, especially who live in right room of 302, started to feel something weird, that there might be someone in their HO, sometimes.
   They would hear some sounds that suggest someone is in the left room. Some other times, the students in 302 can just feel that someone, or something is on the other side of the room. However, they are too timid to open the door and check what's inside. Instead, they put tapes all around the door and stacked some large rocks to prevent the creature inside from ever coming out. At least, during time when they live in 302.
   Fear and rumors only last for several days as KMLA becomes busier with midterm tests and various school events, students of 302-HO, as well, gradually grew indifferent to the other side of their HO. Exactly one week passed, and it was the day many KMLA students had longed for - the "Chicken Day."
   The members from the right room of 302 raced up the stairs from the second floor to each have more of the delicious chicken they'd been yearning for so long. Shortly after each student entered the room, screaming "YES, CHICKEN!" and all other sorts of jocular exclamations. One by one, they ran into the place where the freshly - roasted chicken was waiting for them; they failed to notice that there was an extra shadow that was following their tales. It didn't take long until the students noticed that they had company.
   But there was no shape at all. Only the shadow dimmed on the other corner of the room. The students of the 302-HO was terrified; but soon ignored the 'strange creature' lingering from the other room. The stupid and ignorant students ate chicken fast as they could, but until the fat little student picked up a small piece of chicken, they soon realized that something was wrong. Half of the chicken was gone. Disappeared. The horrified humans looked on the other side of the room. The shadow also disappeared. Only the cool air and the horrified chill left on to the half full students. Too scary it was for students who could have imagined that the chicken would disappear suddenly?
   One day, the 302 students opened the door which was entangled with tapes. What welcomed them was a space full of white, an white arrow and a ghost. 
"Hello... anyone?" A frightened student asked.
"HAHAHAHA Finally u guys came to meet us!" It was not voice. The meaning was directly conveyed to students' minds. 
"How are you saying like that? And who are you?" All students asked together.
"Are you God?"
"Well.. kind of."
"I got it. You are a writer right?" A student shouted in a excited voice.
"What did you say? I can't hear you."
"He is a WRITER." "Look at that arrow and ghost. You really don't get it?"
"I don't get it. Who the hell is him and where is this place?
"This is blog and he's a writer. That arrow is a mouse's cursor and ghost is his finger on keyboard."
"Damn! Stop censoring me!" The angry student yelled. Suddenly, he tried to suicide by throttling. He was crying loudly. Shocked students around him stopped him. 
"Calm down! What's the matter with you?"
"We are just creations of him. What we have believed real is all wrong. We are just bunch of words. If he erases them, we don't exist anymore, like we've never existed before."
"That's enough boy. Stop." The meaning once again passed.
"I was always curious how my characters will react to the fact that they are just characters in my fiction,"
"and I think I found the answer. Sorry for you ruining your life."


"How can I live on from now on? What should I do now? I even don't know who is telling this."


"Two choices. Do you want to forget this or remember this?"


It was harsh choice. It was harsh. He had to choose between facing the bitter reality and living like nothing was happened to his life. After long time considering, the frustrated student answered.


"I... I want to forget this."
"Is this decision made by me or you?"


"I don't know. Hahaha"

   While many people believe that no one uses left room of 302, actually, there is a guy living in that room. It is rational that people believe the room is empty, because he always turns off the light and never go out from the room except weekends, when people believe he is a merely guest of KMLA. However, some of students, especially who live in right room of 302, started to feel something weird, that there might be someone in their HO, sometimes.
   They would hear some sounds that suggest someone is in the left room. Some other times, the students in 302 can just feel that someone, or something is on the other side of the room.

   .
   .
   .
   "So, this is the dream i dreamed for a week."
   "Are you crazy, man? There is nothing in our left room. Look, it's opened, not closed with tapes, and is empty and clear."
   "I think you need some delicious chicken. Hey, let's go to Sosa and get some chicken."
   "Well..um.. let's go then."
They left, not noticing the bizarre creature is looking them behind.

What is Modern Art?, a Brave Question Raised by "Exit Through the Gift Shop"

 With the arise of post-modernism, the definition of art became rather unclear. Though there were many efforts to explain and embody the meaning of art, any of them did not come to my heart, except this one. "Art, that is a fraud." The master of video art, Baek Nam-Jun had  answered this to a reporter's question asking what is art.
Is it a fraud or art? 
When someone asks me is it art or not, "Yes!" I would say it to Leonardo Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, "Hmm.. maybe?" to Duchamp's Fountain, "I don't know..." to Damien Hurst's For the Love of God.


So, I once again meditate the meaning of art. My doodle scribbled on my notebook without any meaning can be an ART. This is what happening in post-modernism era, when every standards have collapsed. Thus, art is what being thought art, so art is a fraud, as Mr.Baek had said. 
     Banksy, the most famous street artist of 21st century, criticizes this attribute of modern art through this documentary. By filming rapid success of Mr.Brainwash, Banksy shows how invalid the modern art is and how exaggerated value of the modern art is. What Mr.Brainwash has painted and made is basically the combination of Andy Warhol, Shepard Fairey and Banksy. Mr.Brainwash does not have any idea about his art works, or configuration of them either. Surprisingly, Mr.Brainwash's artworks are evaluated highly and sold with extremely expensive money. To Banksy, Mr.Brainwash's art is fake, made by mass media and vanity of people. It seems legit because no one would believe exhibition of man who had never painted before succeeds. 
      However, I want to criticize Banksy by the part that he is criticizing art. The essence of his art is street art, or the vandalism, denying and mocking what other arts had done before. And "that" Banksy is trying to make another standard, dividing what a real art is and not. Hilarious, isn't it? His viewpoint clearly displays what existing artists could have thought about street art, or Banksy. He himself is showing the process which an Icon of vandalism becoming an icon of conservatism. 
    An idea just have come to my mind that maybe Banksy has made this film to reveal how ridiculous his fans are, who absorb Banksy's idea thoughtlessly. He just wanted to laugh at people writing reviews about Banksy's greatness and MBW's vulgarness, which is exactly converse to Banksy spirit. One thing is sure regardless of his purpose of filming. That the effort to define art would be a mockery.

What I felt from watching Jesus Camp

 Every man has a right to choose what to believe depending on his/her rationality. Look at Jesus camp and what happening in there. An adult woman makes a creepy atmosphere, tells same thing repeatedly and threatens children to repent. Those behaviors lead bunch of children fall into a deep trance, so that they become vulnerable to all kinds of mind attacks including hypnosis and brainwash. By going through this process, children's week minds are have cleaned, and children became devoted servants of the Lord. What is their original sin? I think it is that they were born under extreme evangelical parents. Their faiths were coerced, not chosen by themselves. Most of them would not realize that the event was anti-human and had changed their life forever even after they grew up. This is very unfortunate, happening no matter where and when, even now.
 As Martin Luther did in about 500 years ago, I think a religious reformation should be performed nowadays too. Many agrees a religion has been corrupted and distorted to the original purpose of religion. I hope a religion to be changed to one more fits to its original purpose, admitting other's belief, and not coercing its faith. There should not be any children suffering from a religion anymore. It is a religion, not children, that should be awake.

If you could have dinner with anyone, alive or dead, who would it be?

   I arrived in In-N-Out, where I and Sean had promised to meet, looking around the restaruant. I just can't believe this reality. Sean is the one I definitely want to meet ever since I watched the movie The Social Network. I searched his more detail profile, as I get to know him more, I kinda fell into him more. His life was really similar to my ideal life, that he didn't go to college, became popular for his age 19 and is a super rich in silicon valley. He co-founded Napster, a infamous milestone in music industry, when he was 19 giving up the opportunity to go to college unlike most of other high school students. He played very important role in early development of Facebook by advising Facebook team and connecting them to silicon valley venture capitalists. And as a reward, he got 7% of Facebook stock, so now he is a super rich having more than 1 billion dollars. When I've been thinking one thing and another, I just noticed him coming.

I: "Oh, hello Mr.Parker. I'm glad to meet you. I just can't believe this is true."

Sean : "Hey, you must be su-jae right? Sure, this is true and you and I are having dinner. You don't think this is kind of imagination happening in someone's brain, right? By the way, just call me Sean."

I: "OK. That thing reminds me of that scene in the movie Social Network. You know, that you say to Mark remove the from thefacebook. Did you see that movie?"

Sean : "Sure. Well, I first want to tell you that most of the movie is just fake. It is the movie made in Hollywood so there are many exaggerations and distortions to make it more interesting. I feel dissatisfied to it, but I don't want to complain it 'cause I know that's how things are working in Hollywood."

I : "Oh I see. Let's talk about your life. I think the decision not to go to college required many bravery because not so many people actually take that decision. How did you come up with the decision?"

Sean : "That's kind of evident to me then. Napster was just in front of my eyes, college education to me felt pretty petty. Think about it. You'll gonna change the whole world soon, now, do you want to go to a university?"

I : "So, have you ever regretting that decision?"

Sean : "No, definitely not. I always want to live a unique life as you can see from my path of life. Going to college is way too common and dull. Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and bunch of other IT giants had drop out of the university. It means managing the company is much interesting and fun than attending the school."

I : "Well... I kinda think of that too. How do you think about it? Will you recommend me not to go to a university?"

Sean : "Hmm, recommending is a different level of telling my story. What I can say is just live your life, not your parents' life or not your teacher's life. If you have a solid vision, nothing much matters. Believe in yourself and take a decision resolutely."

I : "Oh that helps me a lot. Actually my dream is to be a entrepreneur, like you. Can you tell me your life as an entrepreneur?"

Sean : "I think I got to tell you the story when I first co-founded Napster with my friends. You have heard of it, Napster right? It is a ancestor of torrent. People downloaded and shared musics with Napster. The power of Napster was explosive. All of the people in music industry became enraged and threatened us that they'll accuse us. All we can do was filing for bankruptcy against huge amounts of money as compensation. I know it was the service has many legal problems, but it was also a necessary evil for the music industry. It had been one step behind the internet era, so by Napster it can radically reform itself, finally following the internet era. So I'm very proud of founding Napster. And, I want to tell you this. When you start a company, the money don't have to be in priority. Fun should be the priority. That is a hacker spirit and silicon valley spirit. Once you be excited about the idea and can't stand anymore without starting a company, money and reputation automatically follow you."

I : "Interesting story! And helped me a lot, too. Um, not only Napster, you also involved in Facebook right? Well, did you know Facebook will succeed when you involved? If so, is there a measure for judging startups' potential success?"

Sean : "When I first met Mark and heard about Facebook, I just was fascinated. I told you that fun is important. The idea of Facebook was obvious and logical. Connecting the people on online, it was a service that everyone wanted but no one have served. Like I told you, if you find an idea that is so fun that you can't stand anymore without it, it would succeed and change the world. That's how I measure the potential of ventures."

I : "I'll keep that in mind. Actually I have an idea like you described, and now i'm sure it would succeed, haha. Well, as a person who wants to participate in IT business, I want to hear your expectation of IT business."

Sean : "Sorry, I just can't tell you. 10 years ago, I didn't know the existence of Google, and surely there wasn't a Facebook. Nobody has expected the advent of smartphone, development of Google or Microsoft's suffering. Leaving an expectation of IT industry is like leaving a laughing stock, so I won't leave it. All I can tell you is that it is an ocean of myriads of opportunities. So come here, grab them and get succeeded. I'm sure you can do it."

I : "I think I asked a stupid question. Um, I think we must got to go now, it's so late. Thank you for all the advises and the answers."

Sean : "You're welcome. I hope you be a cool entrepreneur. Bye"

If you could have dinner with anyone, alive or dead, who would it be?[brainstorming]

"A million dollars isn’t cool. You know what’s cool? A billion dollars"
Sean Parker(Justin Timberlake), The Social Network
  Whom :  Sean Parker, an IT businessman who co-founded Napster and involved in early development of Facebook. Also a rich, who has more than $1.6 billion from the facebook's stock.

  When : Not much matters, sooner will be better.

  Why : I think I have to declare that his image to me is almost from "The Social Network." So he may can be very different from that movie, and I may be mistaking him. But I will suppose he is as much cool and smart as appeared in the movie "The Social Network."
(Actually, I was bit surprised to his appearance, far different from Justin Timberlake)
(This picture is way better.)
I was totally captivated to him in the movie when he said "A million dollars isn’t cool. You know what’s cool? A billion dollars." He was the one who exactly understood the essence of the silicon valley ventures, that one who has bigger dream wins. Mark first thought facebook as a social networking site only for university students.(Not only in the movie, but also in reality.) Now, facebook became a site with the most number of members more than 5 billions and functions as 'utility' as Mark said. Sean was the one who had the vision, could see the future and potential of the company. Most people tend to be afraid of the future and evaluate a potential as least as can. I really respect him and think highly of him due to this point. I want to learn his visions and how not be afraid of the future when starting a startup having a dinner with him. Moreover, I have a deep interest toward his life. His life is full of interesting parts from that he co-founded Napster and his education ended at high school diploma to he has been in Facebook from the beginning. The most interesting part to me, is that he didn't go to a college. Unlike other people, he didn't go to college. He refused to go to college and just founded Napster with his friends. He is very similar to me at this part. It is an open secret that I don't want to go to college. I believe there is a certain value in college education, but I think founding a company and diving into the real world would be more valuable to me. So, listening to his path of life would advise me how to live(that, at least whether go to college or not) and will be a compass to my life. More importantly, he is an expert of ventures with abound experiences of them. His Napster was may a commercial failure and immoral program, but was a milestone of music industry, changing it forever. I would be really excited hear a vivid story of ventures from the one who had founded the most famous(or, infamous) venture and is in the most famous company(Facebook) now. And actually he has many connections in silicon valley,which means he can practically help me. He's the one who introduced Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook to venture capitalists and angels.Same thing can happen to me later, so with these points I would have a dinner with Sean Parker.
  Where : at In-N-Out Burger.
Is there a guy who don't like In-N-Out burgers living in western USA? Well, might be, but he's not. He's a silicon valley guy used to eat this kind of fast food, not a fine restaurant's cuisine. Having a conversation with him eating burgers, french fries with melted cheese and cokes would be the most valuable experience to me.

Questions :
1. Sean, how does it feel to be a revolutionary? You know, you've opened the world of illegal download of music, and changed the music industry.

2. Sean, do you satisfy your decision not to go to a university? Maybe surely is because you are now such a rich, but I mean did generally your decision help you to have a better life? Will you recommend not to go to a university to other person, especially, me?

3. Sean, how could you be so sure about Facebook's success? Actually many venture starters kind of feel anxious toward the future of their ventures. Is there a measure for judging startups' potential?

4. Sean, is there a venture you are currently interested of? What venture you have seen has the best business model?

5. Sean, the conflict between Mark and Eduardo whether posting ads to Facebook or not was pretty interesting to me when I watched The Social Network. How do you think about the importance of the commercial success? Since ventures are not donations you have to think about the commerce thing. How should enterpreneur balance between the idea and the commerce?

6. Sean, people say the 10 years of IT industry is a 100 years of other industries. So it might be a fool question, but how do you think of future of IT? Many changed since the advent of smartphone, and surely no need to mention Google or Facebook. How will the structure of IT industry change, and who will be the winner of it?

7. Sean, I heard many criticisms about a current status of IT industry, that it is similar to  the dot com bubble of 20th century. How do you think of this opinion?
