Abstract

In this analysis, the south korean essayist share twhith us the opportunity of revisit the issue of a society that has focused its activity on the production. Forgetting the value of rest and leisure as structures of contemplation and evaluation of reality. In a very wisely way and with an analogical methodology, gives us six themes that praise inactivity and the essence of a life with reflection and meaning. Epistemic objectivity prevails, within a markedly volatile and relativistic social context.
