    MagSafe iPhone Leather Card Wallet

    Even though it’s not AirPods, when attached, it’s recognized and can be registered on ‘Find My Device’. It even alerts you when detached from the main body. (No alerts if only the card slips out)

    Is the Author of a Translated Book the Translator?

    That’s not to say ‘Sydney!’ was a stellar translation; neither was particularly engaging.

    Pearl Jam – Better Man

    While the guitar and drums might not be mind-blowing, Pearl Jam shows that’s not always needed to create great band music.

    Slow Starter (with Lee Seung-gi)

    Both have been in entertainment for so long that their speaking voices are just too familiar. They sing well, but it feels like I’m at karaoke with a close friend.

  • The Great Passage

    The Great Passage

    There’s a movie called ‘The Great Passage’, introduced in our country as ‘The Happy Dictionary’. I heard the book is more fun, but I ended up watching the movie first while lazily lounging at home. Life rarely goes as planned, right?

    The Most Perfect Song, Viva La Vida

    Minari

    This movie tells a story that feels real. While all films might seem plausible, this one feels like the most believable of them all. Living is a heavy burden. Every creature lives, but humans, with their ability to think, endure continuous suffering. We worry about the future, preventing us from enjoying the present; we compare…
