Namjoon is reading the book Wasted Time / Wasted Years (ํ์ก์ธ์) by Kim Hoon ๐
This book is an essay collection about ups and downs of life, aging, death, and the passage of time
#RM#namjoon#๋ฐฉํ์๋ ๋จ์์
A more literal translation of the title ํ์ก์ธ์ is "idly spending time" or "whiling away time". It discusses the author's own confrontation with mortality as a result of illness, & reflections on others & their struggles through life
The book is only in Korean at the moment ๐
Bringing this back with Joonie's exhibition launch. If you enjoyed listening to RM talk about his interests, you have to go check out Encyclopedia of Useless Facts!
Our special post for #RMDay covers the amazing Namjoon book corners! From the books that Namjoon donated to the ones which inspired music, these corners covers it all!
Let's go on a little trip in all these bookstores !
