The stories behind their books

“I immediately bought and read the translated original novel.”

“This book also gave me a lot of strength. It felt like it said exactly what I wanted to hear? It’s a book I’ve read several times.”

“You have to put down deep roots so you can stand more firmly as you rise.”

“The protagonist has the ability to see how much longer other people will live. A friend gets into an accident, and afterward the protagonist can see how much longer the friend has to live, which causes them anguish. It’s a novel that made me wonder whether being able to see the future is really a good thing.”

“The process of a lonely cat and a person exchanging love and finding happiness felt so warm to me.”

“Then, when the members made their remarks, I was really moved. “Ah… this is crazy, like a movie. Right, this is what I had been missing.””

““The first book that made me cry while reading was Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Si Do.””

“when I was younger reading like Lord of the Rings Harry Potter and the Narnia books”

“I definitely recommend reading it as a book, too.”

“A book? Ah, but I haven’t finished reading everything yet... I’m still in the midst of reading it... Guns, Germs, and Steel... It’s sort of like a history book~”

“A life journey with Dor!!!~ It’s a book I received as a gift~ As I travel through life with Dor, I should study Korean hard too, right? ^^♥”

“Because I never even imagined that I would publish a book, I feel more fulfilled than I did when releasing an album.”

“Next, this book. That book too, now, Mr. Na Tae-jun...”

“I’m not very interested in novels, but this book made me so curious about what would happen next that I kept reading.”

“I wondered how a lie could be elegant, and I was interested because it was by the author of Wandeuk.”

“Maybe it’s also similar to the story of *Peter Pan*. So before this round of activities, I started digging into *Peter Pan* and went through various dark fairy tales. The dark fairy tales in particular felt new to me because they were different from what I knew as a child.”

“This time, I bought a book called The Practice of Not Reacting. I wanted to calm my mind. (Laughs)”

““As I was working on my book, I read Jeong You-jeong’s *The Origin of Species* and Shim Eun-hee’s *The Wind Blew in Ireland. Waves Rose in My Heart*.””

“When I first heard about this book, I couldn't help laughing. ‘A whole book about Bibi Curry?’ But after reading it to the end, I completely changed my mind. I could feel how the owner, who likes me, had thoughtfully put each and every word on the page with sincerity and honesty. It's wonderful and impressive, and I feel both pleased and proud. Someday, I'll definitely take Bibi to have Bibi Curry. Bibi can't eat curry, but they'll give Bibi an apple, right? Lucky you, Bibi. They say they like you more than me. Let's go soon. Let's just drop by. Even if I can't go inside, I'll have the car waiting out front.”

“This is a book I'm reading. It's about how the story keeps going back through the generations—my mother's mother, my mother's mother's mother, and so on. So it's really interesting and has a great atmosphere. It's a healing book to read.”

“Since our juniors probably haven’t had many chances to travel around Korea, I think it would be nice to give the books to junior girl groups.”

“That’s really funny.”

“Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince”

““My time is musical notes; I’m making notes day by day. I find myself thinking, ‘I hope that on the day the piece is complete, I’ll be able to sing it with a smile.’” Is that the kind of meaning that comes to mind?”

“Among the books I’ve read recently, I read a book called Reading Schopenhauer at Forty. Schopenhauer is pessimistic, but there are times when I actually find comfort in that aspect of him.”

“The Little Prince is, ah, really a song that's kind of like a fairy tale for adults. Um, it's inspired by the original novel, The Little Prince, by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, uh...”

““The love and psychology between men and women in many different situations are captured like a movie.””

“This book is so good ❤️❤️”

“I had never taken photos wearing lingerie before. Since this is my first time trying it, I hope everyone will pay close attention to the photos of me wearing lingerie.”

“If your memories were slowly fading, who would you least want to forget?”

“It’s a work that reflects on the value of human life through a doctor named Sashal, who is a metaphor for a “lucky person” in modern society, where most people are unhappy. But more than that, what resonated most with me was Sashal’s way of embodying the ideal human relationships I hope for.”

“Ah, is that it?”

““I also read a book called ‘Moss Forest.’””

“A book that comes to me when I make time to read, even for just five minutes, because I want to clear my mind and feel happy.”

“I think I read it when I was about six, starting around 11 a.m.”

“At the time, I really liked the great insight I gained from the story of the Indians in writer Park Min-gyu’s book *Pavane for a Dead Princess*.”
