Book Review
Twelve BTS songs and twelve philosophers met.Kim Kwang-sik, a cognitive philosopher and cultural philosopher who said, “We aim for everyday philosophy rather than the philosophy of grand discourse,” is increasing access to philosophy through song lyrics, novels, movies, and myths. Rather than a collection of interpretations of the meaning of songs, it can be seen as a meeting with art and philosophy that think through BTS’ songs.BTS songs basically contain concepts and messages about the album.Based on this, it was personally interesting to see the lines of the lyrics newly filled by the author for each chapter (song).Self-affirmation and self-denial through the connection between the song “Blood Sweat Tears” and the novel “Demian” and Nietzsche’s philosophy.
Book recommendation
Easy but not light, funny but serious. Recommend to everyone who loves BTS music.
