Courage Against Lies and Ignorance
The author"s "Facts, Lies, and Ignorance" is a vivid testimony that goes beyond a simple trial record and shows how lonely an individual can fight on the border between justice and injustice. While the author was running a private business with a technical qualification he acquired locally, he became involved in an unexpected dispute with a malicious customer. This incident began when the author referred the dispute to trial due to a pre-planned act with an accomplice.
This dispute, which began during the repair of a local gas station"s refrigeration equipment, soon led to a trial that shook the author"s life. In the long legal battle that lasted 1 year and 9 months, the author continuously submitted documents to the court and clearly conveyed his position through emails exchanged to prove his legitimacy. However, during this process, the author faced even greater difficulties as not only the customer"s malicious actions but also the issue of global companies failing to keep their promises came to light.
The issue related to the global giant corporation was another ordeal for the author, but he did not give in and instead fought bravely. Anyone can be shaken by injustice and unfairness, but the author did not give up on correcting injustice with his conviction and confidence in the truth. This was a courageous act that went beyond simply solving personal problems and pointed out issues that should be addressed importantly in the local society.
In particular, this book, published based on the original Korean version written by the author himself without editing or revision, contains the truth in itself and transparently shows what process an individual went through. Through this record, the author goes beyond simply reporting on one person’s struggle and conveys an attitude of life that never gives up when faced with injustice.
In this book, we can also catch a glimpse of the dark side of modern society. The unfair tyranny of large corporations against advertisers, the unfair judgment of the court, and the indifferent social response to these issues can elicit sympathy and anger from many. However, the author’s appearance of protecting his values to the end leaves us with an important message. That is the belief that truth cannot be ignored and that justice will ultimately prevail no matter how lonely the fight may be.
In addition, this book does not limit the author’s struggle to a single individual. By publishing the English version of "Facts, Lies, and Ignoring", which is the original court filing, he wants to convey the same message to readers around the world. The author"s efforts have inspired many people, showing that the injustice he confronts is not a problem of a specific country or region, but a topic that anyone around the world can fully sympathize with.
Ultimately, "Facts, Lies, and Ignoring" is not a simple collection of trial records, but a history that records one person"s courage and determination toward the truth. It reminds us all of how important it is to fight for justice, and how valuable it is to remain unwavering and maintain one"s beliefs in the process. Through this, the author has made endless efforts to correct injustice, and the results will be remembered forever through this book.
