Chang-wan, who has left a unique mark on Korean popular culture, is being published by Woongjin Knowledge House.\u003cbr\u003e Kim Chang-wan debuted with Sanulrim in 1977 and left a mark on the music industry by presenting his own unique musical world. \u003cbr\u003eHis songs are constantly being reborn as they are sung by younger singers such as IU, Jang Beom-jun, Kim Feel, and Stray Kids.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Even if it's crumpled, it's still a circle\" is a compilation of letters that Kim Chang-wan wrote to listeners on SBS PowerFM's \"This Beautiful Morning, This is Kim Chang-wan\" and the opening he wrote himself every morning.\u003cbr\u003e Just as only a couple of the 47 hand-drawn circles look good, the letter of consolation that company life is also round if two out of 47 days are round has been a hot topic on social media and blogs for a long time.\u003cbr\u003e The letter he gave to a listener who was suffering from not being able to forget his deceased grandmother, confessing his feelings of loss over losing the youngest member of Sanulrim, Kim Chang-ik, was also tearful and warm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Even if it's crooked, it's still a circle\" contains not only warm encouragement but also Kim Chang-wan's unique outlook on life: that we shouldn't be disappointed by our crooked daily lives, and that even the rough drafts we create every day are beautiful in their own right. \u003cbr\u003eAlso, his cheerful attitude towards life stands out, as he shakes off yesterday's sadness and sorrow as if it were nothing and vigorously rolls on his bicycle wheels today.\u003cbr\u003e His attitude of focusing on each step he takes without looking back or regretting past glories or wounds shows why he is always an artist in the present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Don’t look back so much that you say, ‘The me in the mirror is also the past.’\u003cbr\u003e “Remember that the distant future is not as far away as yesterday.” - From “There Are Days Like This and Days Like That”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e He doesn't try to teach, but he wants to learn, and although he just says things casually, there's warmth in them.\u003cbr\u003e The essay by musician Kim Chang-wan, who transcends generations, will be a warm gift to readers who have been thirsting for the voice of a true

“A Happy Day Without Any Problems”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It may seem like the same old days are repeating themselves, but when you open your eyes and look, they are never the same as yesterday. \u003cbr\u003eBuds sprout from the branches of trees that had been crouching, apartment windows that had been tightly shut from fine dust open all at once to welcome the clear day, and yesterday's regrets and lingering feelings fade in the new morning.\u003cbr\u003e There is no wind like yesterday, no river like yesterday, no me like yesterday.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Once you get used to it, it becomes natural.\u003cbr\u003e Even when sunny and good days are repeated, we forget to be grateful, and when we are sick, we just wish for the pain to go away, but when we get better, the pain-free state becomes insignificant.\u003cbr\u003e Kim Chang-wan regards this kind of inertia as a \"cliff of thought,\" turning his attention to the small, precious changes in everyday life and reminding us of the precious meaning of ordinary days.\u003cbr\u003e The meaning of each day he has collected will be a precious gift to all who wish to live a fulfilling life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDon't look for yesterday's sky in today's sky\u003cbr\u003e Shake off yesterday's regrets by saying, \"It's nothing.\"\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe wisdom and attitude of an adult who lives each day to the fullest\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Even if it’s crumpled, it’s still a circle” contains the attitude of artist Kim Chang-wan, who lives each day to the fullest.\u003cbr\u003e It is a calm and composed attitude that regards hardship as something like a hill in the neighborhood that is always there, does not dwell on yesterday's events, and does not become discouraged by the shabbiness of everyday life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Today, I’m going to draw circles again like I’m trying to get lucky.\u003cbr\u003e It'll probably be dented again.\u003cbr\u003e I think it's similar to my day.\u003cbr\u003e There is no need to be disappointed.” - From “There is no need to be disappointed because it is crumpled”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Just as the circles we draw can never be perfect, most days are imperfect and crooked.\u003cbr\u003e But for Kim Chang-wan, the imperfections and annoyances of an ordinary day are not a cause for disappointment.\u003cbr\u003e Because that's everyday life and that's life. \u003cbr\u003eRather, what makes everyday life disappointing and miserable is the expectation and fantasy that life will be full of perfect and pleasant days.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The more grand the dream and the more splendid the fantasy, the more unpleasant the reality becomes and the more one wants to escape from it.\u003cbr\u003e This is why Kim Chang-wan focuses on simple daily life and small hopes.\u003cbr\u003e He reminds us of how brilliant and wonderful the everyday things we let pass by, such as the music from the record player, the childishness of children, the flocks of migratory birds, and the uneventful routines of daily life, are.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “I hope you have a wonderful morning.\u003cbr\u003e “If it’s a grand dream that will destroy even my humble hopes, I’d rather not dream it.” - From “Today, I’m so discouraged.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Kim Chang-wan does not wallow in yesterday's regrets and lingering anxieties, nor does he succumb to the darkness of the past.\u003cbr\u003e Don't be indulging in yesterday's glory and throw away your present self. \u003cbr\u003eAs poet Park Jun said, “He never stood still for even a moment,” he just flows leisurely.\u003cbr\u003e Kim Chang-wan shows the image of an ‘always new adult’ through ‘Even if it’s crumpled, it’s still a circle.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In a society where even happiness has become part of competition, Kim Chang-wan's words and writing remind us of the essence of life that we have forgotten.\u003cbr\u003e His attitude of accepting pain as a part of life, being grateful for the insignificant day, shaking off yesterday's sorrow and regrets in the new morning, and admiring the beauty of the moon rising today rather than its grand meaning will awaken readers to how to live each day to the fullest. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e -
