book introduction

The comfort of plants and trees to the hard-working city dwellers.

"If only we could be as beautiful as you."

a city where cranes form the horizon
The city has a fate that cannot be avoided.Buildings are constantly being built and trees are being cut down.The holes in people's hearts grow as big as the growth of the city.Behind the development, there are small creatures in the dark.There are cut trees, soft plants that break through concrete gaps, and people who grow plants on the rooftop and gather together to watch TV.They look weak, but they embrace the devastation of the city and comfort the open-minded.They are beings that make the city colorful and deep, just as the darkness of the tree widens the arms of the shade.

If you can grow your own tree in your heart,
"Maybe people have a little tree in their hearts.Maybe that's how you endure the shadow of this civilization."

This book tells urbanites who live with a hole in their hearts to remember green.Wild flowers blooming in the fields, small grasses in the cracks of stone walls, persimmon trees in my hometown, or a giant tree of my own.Whatever it is, I will keep a tree in my heart, so remember it and breathe while thinking about it.Then the plants will comfort you.The book, which consists of writing and handwriting, contains prayers to recall the memories of green.

comfort of the darkness of the trees
The deeper the darkness, the deeper the rest.
One day, when the rain and wind were raging, the author sees a small bird flying into the darkness of the tree and avoiding the rain."Oh, the trees are protecting the birds, the darkness is protecting the birds safely." "Then it's okay for us to get darker, too."

This book talks about the shadow of the city and the darkness of the trees.But that darkness is the darkness that makes a bird fly in and rest.Just as a tree in the back alley of a city becomes a resting place for birds, so does the shade of a tree, so does the old tree provide us with a nest to lean on.In this respect, this book is a comfort that weak beings give to weak beings.

This book is also a work to remember small lives that grow steadily even in barren environments.The writer himself did the same.I had a lot of difficulties between dreams and reality, and I had a lot of experiences.In it, the artist became stronger and began to draw them with warm eyes.That's how the book contains the village community, its plants and people, and activists trying to prevent the construction of roads that will soon disappear.

a deplorable view of the devastating forest and community
People constantly destroy forests and communities.Like the Bijarim-ro Forest in Jeju Island, old forests are on the verge of disappearing regardless of the name of road construction.In response, some people stop their lives and go out to protect their lives in the forest.In addition, in the redevelopment area, there are people who grow plants in small pots and styrofoam boxes.They sometimes meet on the rooftop and have meetings, go to see someone if they are sick, and gather at their grandmother's house to watch TV together.This book warmly contains the stories of people who live on trees and grass, protect them, and care for them.

"The disappearance of the village community means that the numerous stories contained in it also disappear.The disappearance of the story is like the disappearance of history, and the disappearance of history is like the disappearance of ourselves."

A tree grows in all of us.
Seeds in my pocket-if we could be as beautiful as you.
The author puts seeds in his pocket and fiddles with them, imagining a tree that will grow tens of times taller than he is.Doesn't everyone have seeds in their pockets?A tree that sprouts, branches come out, becomes a beautiful tree, and gives deep rest and rest.That's how one tree grows for all of us.Wouldn't it be worth living if you had each beautiful tree in your heart?"We are all beautiful beings," the book says.
