The author, a 27-year-old graduate student at the time, said he was a coward, and was overcome with fear, wondering, \"Will I die if I go to the National Assembly?\"\u003cbr\u003e After much hesitation, he arrived in front of the National Assembly and saw a foreign correspondent heading to the National Assembly. He said he ran after him, thinking, “I won’t die if I stay next to a foreign correspondent.”\u003cbr\u003e 12.3 'Seoul Night' was the starting point of the author's long journey to experience democracy in the square firsthand.\u003cbr\u003e The atmosphere in Impeachment Square was intense, and when the cheering stick demonstration led by young women in their 20s and 30s lit up the night sky, melting the winter chill, the author attended every rally and soon transformed into a speaker who lit up the square. \u003cbr\u003eFollowing in the footsteps of his mother, who was a labor activist, he participated in various rallies from a young age, and with the help of 'advance learning', he developed his talent of 'writing and speaking', transforming from a coward to a brave citizen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The author went up on stage and addressed the citizens five times in March alone.\u003cbr\u003e As the number of speeches increased, his will to contribute to the square became more concrete, and he became a famous speaker with his 'nuclear cider' remarks that soothed the hearts of citizens.\u003cbr\u003e They did not hesitate to make bold changes to deliver a more interesting and poignant message.\u003cbr\u003e He also elicited an explosive response through a speech that sharply criticized the insurgents and their accomplices through satire and ridicule. \u003cbr\u003eOf the nearly 20 speeches he gave at various rallies, the one he remembers most was the \"roundabout\" speech he gave at Namtaeryeong entitled \"Advice to the Police.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “A police officer without a union is nothing more than a mold of the people and a crutch for those in power.\u003cbr\u003e If you all unite, the person you'll fear most is the insurgent leader of the prosecutorial dictatorship! Surely, Mr. Yoon Seok-yeol? With a union, all acts of disobedience and strikes are protected as labor rights.\u003cbr\u003e If you don't know how to make it, you can ask the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions here.\u003cbr\u003e If you take out the car, I will accept you as a comrade.\u003cbr\u003e Right? The reason I'm devoting this precious time to giving advice to you, the people's bears... or rather, the canes, is because I think it would be a good idea for the police to go on a general strike after the farmers.\u003cbr\u003e Tuesday for the peasants, Wednesday for the police, Thursday for all workers!

Enduring censorship and ridicule, we pledged to love what we love.\u003cbr\u003e If this isn't resistance and democracy, then what is? Love has always been politics, and we created democracy through virtue.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 〈B〉“The song we sang together in the square is connected to the aspirations of the citizens.” \u003cbr\u003eThe meaning of a plaza where folk songs and K-pop blend, where people are different but communicate and move forward.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The composition of this book stands out for its creative ideas that reflect the sensibilities of people in their 20s.\u003cbr\u003e The titles of the prologue, epilogue, and chapters 1-6 are songs that were sung in the Resignation Square.\u003cbr\u003e These eight songs are a mix of traditional sports songs and K-pop, popular among the 2030 generation.\u003cbr\u003e In order, they are “A Wolf Appeared,” “So That It Can Be a Page,” “March for the Beloved,” “Like a Rock,” “Our Dream,” “The World We Met Again,” “Don’t Give Up on the World,” and “When That Day Comes.”\u003cbr\u003e The author arranged each chapter's scenes of democracy and his own experiences around songs that citizens sang together in the square. \u003cbr\u003eThis composition is intended to reveal that the fervent aspirations of the citizens gathered in the square are connected to the songs, and that the meaning and resonance of those songs are connected to the essence of 'square democracy.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This points to the true values ​​of democracy, a place where people of different backgrounds come together and where no one is excluded, being communicated and integrated through these songs.\u003cbr\u003e The author adds that even in the middle of winter, the hope of a green spring blossomed beyond the flags held up in the square and by the citizens.\u003cbr\u003e It also means that socially vulnerable groups such as women, sexual minorities, the disabled, farmers, workers, and youth each expressed their own identities, and these mixed and blended to create a 'revolution of light' through a higher level of harmony.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In addition to the eight songs, this book also introduces songs that were sung and enjoyed at every gathering. \u003cbr\u003eAmong these are songs that the author himself sang while going up to the podium and giving a speech.\u003cbr\u003e It will be a great pleasure to read this book and imagine the song you sang resonating and spreading throughout the winter square.\u003cbr\u003e Furthermore, while reading this book, you will be able to empathize with the meaning of a square that is different but communicates and moves forward through these songs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 〈B〉The voice of a 28-year-old woman who confidently shouted into the microphone in a cold square!\u003cbr\u003e And the final greeting is always a beautiful one, “I love you.”\u003cbr\u003e fight!!\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The sparkling cheering sticks, the smiles of the young women in their 20s and 30s dancing to the rhythm, and the shouts of desperation and excitement mixed together are a spectacle that perfectly captures the true nature of the 'Revolution of Light.'\u003cbr\u003e The author, who gave nearly 20 speeches at the Resignation Square, always said his final words, “I love you.”\u003cbr\u003e “Fight!!” \u003cbr\u003eThis can be said to reflect the desire and will to create a \"democracy of love\" that goes beyond exclusion and purge, rather than the political demands of Yoon Seok-yeol's impeachment and the elimination of internal strife.\u003cbr\u003e It is also a wish that we keep the 'Promise of the Square' of moving forward together toward the dream of great social reform.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “To avoid being pushed back later, we once again imagine the world after Yoon Seok-yeol.\u003cbr\u003e A world where transgender people can safely use the bathroom, immigrants can receive consumption coupons for the recovery of their livelihoods, workers whose lives are threatened by the climate crisis disappear, and women don't die...\u003cbr\u003e Will such a world ever come? No, it won't.\u003cbr\u003e We make it.\u003cbr\u003e “Because democracy is something we create.”\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe real world, as seen through the eyes of the author, a 20-something with no social experience, is still blocked by thick walls of discrimination and oppression.\u003cbr\u003e The concerns of citizens who, despite the despair, raised the flag of will and solidarity and called for democracy in the square are not unrelated to this.\u003cbr\u003e The author's perspective on this matter is firm and displays youthful determination and a spirit of resistance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “I am here as a strong adult, a subject of the square, to end the old order and the Yoon Seok-yeol administration, which is riddled with misogyny hegemony.\u003cbr\u003e Even if Yoon Seok-yeol is ousted, the People Power Party is disbanded, and a new government takes over, if they turn their backs on us, we will return to the streets.\u003cbr\u003e “We will definitely return to destroy discrimination and hatred.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “In the plaza, we advocated not only for Yoon Seok-yeol’s immediate resignation, but also for major social reform.\u003cbr\u003e All the things that have been taken up as tasks for social reform are true democracy. \u003cbr\u003eAnti-discrimination laws, eradication of sexual exploitation industries, food sovereignty, revision of Articles 2 and 3 of the Trade Union Act, etc.\u003cbr\u003e If we don't eliminate the blind spots in democracy, this will soon become \"your\" story.
