Went to the seoul international book fair and got new books to read once i finish 미움 받을 용기. Found 지적 대화를 위한 넓고 얕은 지식 thanks to the recommendations by @koreangrumblings and ttmik. I decided to get the second one because it includes philosophy and art, but not sure if that’s a good choice because the whole point of studying more is that i need to build vocab on subjects im Not interested not those that i already know. Ive only flipped through it but it looks like a challenging read. I hope its not too difficult. I know nothing about the other book i just picked it up because it looked interesting at the stall, ive been wanting to read some korean feminism, and i wanted the free bag they were giving away with it 👍
