Life, Once Again!

“Still, I think the cruiser is better than the Piquad. ”

“Why?”

“Moby Dick is too big for me to deal with. I prefer a cruiser waiting in a surf-free harbor. ”

“Clearly the White Milky Way is enormous. ”

Jungjin said.

The cook places a vivid red meat on the iron plate. The fat that spreads like spider silk catches my eye. “It's a well-aged wagyu,” the cook said.

“Have you ever met Moby Dick in your life? ”

“You're too young to tell me everything is insignificant compared to what you've suffered. ”

“But tell me. I like to talk, but I also like to listen. ”

It's serious, staring obstinately as if to say it quickly. Although he is over forty years old, what he feels is a sense of liberty that he doesn't know where to scatter rather than the weight of injustice.

“What is your midterm exam score? ”

“Is that really all? ”

“I told you, it's nothing. because that's roughly the height of the hardships that high school students in Korea will face. ”

“Well, I have nothing to say with the average. Obviously, it's a boring country. ”

Jungjin asked the cook to hand over the toothpick barrel. I wonder what he's up to. It was a short while I was watching. Open the lid of the toothpick can and turn it upside down and pour it onto the table.

“This is quietly fun. ”

I started building a tower with an open toothpick.

“Do you want to try?”

“I'm fine.”

No thanks, but one of the gears was heavy. If I didn't take it, I couldn't help but feel like I would stay.

“Here, put it here. ”

I placed the toothpick where it was pointed. I tried to put an end to it, but Heavy picked up his toothpick again.

“Put it where you want to put it this time. ”

I thought about it a little and put the toothpick in a tight spot. It is a diagonal line across a tower that is stacked in a square shape.

“You want to get this over with. But we can't let that happen. ”

The heavy weight picks up two toothpicks and draws two lines parallel to the diagonal. With it, the tower regains its stability. It's like a GO Kingdom. One wants to acknowledge and finish the family tree, and the other is rushing to build a house to see if this country is so much fun.

“Can I put two at a time? ”

“Who decided to leave just one? ”

I have nothing to argue with. He speaks lightly, but has no holes in his words. I can feel that you have a good head.

You hear a sharp sound on the side of the iron plate. The sound of iron and iron slipping away. I was using meat at a constant size with two knives. Severe swordsmanship close to performance opened my eyes to toothpicks for the first time. In the meantime, the floor pushes the toothpick with its fingers. The tower, which is about ten stories up, collapses.

The heavy heaviness watching the collapsed tower for a moment knocks the table into the palm and grins. The three sitting next to the sound stare, but it immediately attracts attention. You're familiar with this pattern of behavior.

“I didn't even tell you not to break it. That's too bad. I can't believe you guys brought down the tower you worked so hard for with one finger. ”

Jungjin collects Juju Island toothpicks and puts them in a barrel.

“Life is like this tower. No matter how hard an individual builds his or her foundation, he or she is forced to collapse at the sight of a powerful force coming from the outside. That's not fair, is it? ”

“What can I do? That's what I have to live with. ”

“What would you do if the tower collapsed like this? Would you like to start from scratch? Or are you still going to give up? ”

It was a heavy lifting barrel. The floor looks down at the toothpick in front of it.

“It's a waste to give up and it's hard to start over, so we'll have to get rid of these for a bargain. ”

The floor said, pulling out a toothpick.

“If I get the raw materials, I'll be able to eat and live. ”

“Mr. Floor focuses on eating. ”

“Wouldn't everyone? ”

“Yes, it is. But that's odd, because at that age, you usually look at your goals and you don't think about your responsibilities. ”

“The world is in chaos. Nowadays, at this age, I worry about putting it in my mouth. ”

“That's a terrible thing to say. ”

The cook distributes the meat one by one onto the hot stone tablets. I gave him a little bit of salt to eat, but they're all different colors. You dipped a piece of meat in your mouth with blue salt. The second taste was meat, and the salt I expected was just salty. Can you tell the taste buds from their tongues?

It was time to pull out the napkin on the left while it was dirty. You can see that the severity is pressing against the meat surface with the detection. Just like the man who was first burned by Prometheus, he looks around the meat with mysterious eyes.

“What are you doing? ”

I unconsciously asked the floor for something so unusual.

“I'm feeling it. ”

“Yes?”

“I value my senses very much. Look at this meat. You can't predict what texture you're going to feel just by looking at it. So you have to touch it. ”

“You can tell by putting it in your mouth. ”

“Do you think the sensitivity of your mouth and fingertips is the same? There's always saliva in their mouths, so it offsets minor differences. For a sure touch, it's best to touch it with your fingertips. ”

Oh, it's hot. The heavy meat touching my ears catches on fast. Despite being burned once, his finger reaches out to the meat again. After touching all the meat of the cube by side, he took the meat with his finger and put it in his mouth.

Who can make a happier face? It is heavy chewing meat with admiration. The floor felt even guilty of chewing meat and swallowing it.

“Maru, try it too. ”

“For what?”

“Feeling. ”

The floor looked at the meat. Common sense grilled meat is not something to touch. If the housewives had seen it, they would have said that they would eat it and would be joking. If someone had recommended it, he would have politely refused and continued eating as usual with the fork next to him.

But what's next to him is heavy. His ride is strangely undeniable. Probably because of his happy face. I feel like I'll lose money if I don't try.

“I think it's necessary for people to broaden their senses. It's definitely convenient to do it in a form that someone has created. There's no risk of that. because I've experienced all the risks that there are so many pioneers out there. and kindly taught them who were coming after them. Hey, it's not dangerous anymore." ”

Several kinds of salt in the middle of the speech were rubbed slightly on his fingers and tasted while smelling it.

“Those who follow will be satisfied with that. It's safe, but I assure you, those people can't escape the formalities. Moreover, those who believe in formalities start selling when they find someone who wants to get out of the formalities. They blame what they can let go of for being off the grid. Why do people do that when it's not hurting people? ”

It was the look that demanded an answer. The floor looks ripe on the stone tablets and says,

“Maybe it's just anxiety. ”

“Why are you nervous? ”

“Me... and... no, being different from us is alien. Strangeness is a shame to be shunned. The format, as you said, is a proven promise made over a long period of time. Maybe it's natural to be exclusive to people who break their promises. ”

“That's a very good answer. But the essence that I think is going to be one step further. ”

“One more step? ”

“Why anxious, why exclusive. There's only one conclusion I made. I hate it when me and the others get ahead of us. Everyone is smart. And they're looking for improvement. That's why we can't stand by and watch people go off format. I know that anyone who goes on a path that isn't out of danger is more likely to fall to his death, but on the contrary, he or she is more likely to end up in the middle of nowhere. ”

He pulls out a toothpick and plunges it into the meat. A toothpick that stands tall to the ceiling.

“People instinctively hate the idea of someone standing on their head. But the world is divided between stepped on and stepped on. That's why people make idols. There's someone up there who looks just like me. But admitting that makes you miserable. I mean, you have to distinguish them into people who are from me, who belong to a completely different kind of person. Oh, he's not like us in the first place. ”

The ledge shrugs.

“Have you ever heard of genius? ”

“Yes, I've heard of it. ”

“What do you think of that? What do you feel? ”

“Amazing, amazing, something like this. ”

Heavy nod. He stares at the toothpick with the meat stuck in it for a long time, pulling it out, dipping it into his regular fork and putting the meat in his mouth.

“The universal name for an idol is genius. Genius breaks the rules. They're headed for a road that people don't usually, or don't intend to, go to. It's a title that people call" awe, "but I feel exhausted every time I hear the word. Genius always lacks effort. ”

The floor looked at the severed fingers. The unexpectedly rough-looking fingers point to a meat that cooks well on a stone tablet.

“It would be a completely different texture. Touch it. ”

He's smiling.

The floor slapped the table with his finger and moved his hand over the meat. I slowly lowered my fingertips to touch the surface of the meat. A texture completely different from raw meat climbs up your fingertips. I feel elasticity and softness at the same time. Light burns are rough. The untouched portion of the stone plate is soft.

I remembered for a moment what I used to do when I was a kid.

“It's like a rite of passage. That means you've been recognized. To the geek.”

The longevity man next to him said, The floor looks heavy, picking up the meat. Jungjin was smiling deeply with his upper teeth exposed.

“Try it. It'll be different. ”

The floor lets out a small sigh and puts the meat in its mouth.

* * *

“Let's find the next place to eat! ”

It was heavy speaking with a flash of his right hand up. "Let's find Chongho and Longevity Man standing next to that shipyard!” I said. Maybe it's because it matches the seriousness. Everyone seems to have left when they were younger.

“Weird guy, right? ”

Joohyun who was standing next to me said.

“Yes, it's weird. ”

“I wish I could see someone like that in the world. ”

Say with a comfortable smile.

“Hey, how was the shoot? ”

“The same. Was it worse? He's the only one who can make that shot. I don't know what to say. Are you sure you're doing the same thing, like you're doing something completely new? It's a little hard to explain. ”

“I have a feeling about this. ”

“Really?"

The floor nods.

“That's good to know. I think the director likes it. ”

“Is that so?"

“He makes a clear distinction once his work begins. Who can think and move, who only wants to follow orders. Those who can't empathize with themselves are merely the words of an organ. That's what he said on the set. ”

“The actors must have noticed. ”

“At first, but not a single person complained about the shooting. It was so perfect.”

It's too perfect. It's subtle.

“You two! Come on, come on, come on! ”

Jungjin gestures and shouts. The floor looked at Juhyun once and walked forward with a light smile.

I think it's just food in the review box.

I can't help it.

When I bought the book 'Boiling ramen' by Writer Kim Hoon, I boiled the muffins in a silver pot with him.

A little bit of pepper powder there.

It's already a new world.

- Mm-mmm.
