[Short-term lecture] Special lecture on not being fooled by pseudoscience!
Author's Note

Wearing a germanium bracelet,
When you're thirsty, drink hydrogen water.
Clean the toilet with baking soda,
To you who always turns off the fan before going to bed!

A direct hit at pseudoscience entangled with sorcery, superstition, and lies!
A popular science webtoon loved by both science nerds and experts alike, now in a long-awaited book format!

Guys, are you fooling me again? It's all fake!

"I saw it on the news. This plant removes fine dust!" Is that right? Even if you put a similar plastic model instead of that plant, it would stick together due to static electricity.
'They say smartphone electromagnetic waves are completely harmful to the body, so make sure to put on an electromagnetic wave blocking sticker!' Can you block electromagnetic waves that spread out in all directions with just one sticker?
'Hey, hey, and there you go.
These days, there is something called hydrogen water…
(Please… stop…!)

frustrated.
There is too much pseudoscience.
The pseudoscience that 'negative ions are good for health' was also behind the 'radon bed incident' that once caused a huge stir nationwide.
In addition, groundless pseudoscience is still rampant, such as, “Vaccines are bad for the body” or “If you get hives, feed charcoal powder.”
This pseudoscience, which pretends to be science when it is not, sometimes threatens people's health in this way.
Pseudoscience is dangerous.

The author of 『Pseudoscience Exploration Area』, Gyeran, is a cartoonist who majored in biology education at Kongju National University of Education and holds a teaching license. He aims to show that cartoons can also be a medium for conveying scientific knowledge.
The author points out that today's world is dominated by pseudoscience and strikes down pseudoscience with solid facts.
It began serialization on Daum Webtoon in November 2017, and finished its first season in April 2018 amidst favorable reviews calling it “a new genre of webtoon never seen before.”
It is currently in its second season due to its popularity.
This volume compiles all 20 episodes of the first season.

"This is real. I admit it's a super fun comic where you can drink cider and study at the same time."

If you know the truth, you'll win every battle! If you understand pseudoscience and have a solid understanding of accurate scientific knowledge, you won't be fooled by empty promises anymore.
This book illuminates various pseudoscientific knowledge and explains the actual scientific principles associated with it.
They say an acidic constitution is bad for you. How is my body's acidity determined? Healing amethyst is said to emit positive waves containing life energy. What is this energy emanating from the stone? Chlorophyll is called "blue blood" because its structure is similar to hemoglobin in blood. But what exactly does chlorophyll do in plants?

This comic is widely loved by a wide range of people, regardless of their major or occupation, including high school science teachers, housewives, psychology students, and nurses.
People who have studied science find relief from their frustration by watching this cartoon, which thoroughly punishes pseudoscience.
People who have family, friends, or loved ones who are obsessed with pseudoscience often find ways to persuade their acquaintances by reading this comic.
People who are interested in health issues can check out unverified health information and gain useful knowledge by watching this cartoon.

Who sounded 'natural' just now?

Why are people so easily seduced by pseudoscience? What makes it so appealing? This book examines not only the transmission of scientific knowledge, but also, more fundamentally, the causes of the world's proliferation of pseudoscience.
Author Egg Egg says that, in fact, the problems with pseudoscience can be easily discovered with just high school science knowledge.
Rather, the author criticizes the attitude of 'unconditionally buying something if it's good on TV or something like that.'
Blind reliance on the authority of the mass media, anthropocentric romanticism about nature, false anxiety about health, etc.
It is because of this unscientific way of thinking that people end up becoming accustomed to pseudoscience.


One such way of thinking, this book points out, is the belief that 'natural is good for the body.'
These days, advertisements advertise that natural vitamins are better, natural cosmetics are better, and even bleach is promoted as “safe bleach made with natural salt.”
Is nature truly healthy and safe? Indeed, all human-made products are likely derived from natural elements. Where does the line between natural and synthetic (artificial) products lie? By posing these questions, "The Field of Exploration of Pseudoscience" overturns misconceptions and fosters an objective perspective free from the sway of pseudoscience.
