This is a story of young people who lived in isolation, feeling as if they have been forced to give up on their lives. Some said it was wishful thinking to expect they would be able to emerge from the rooms they had for so long refused to leave and live their lives fully once again. But these young people now live in one house, cooking and eating together, and finding the strength in community to break free of their isolation and live lives that are marked by both self-reliance and solidarity. The new possibilities these young people have shown us inspire new hope for not only the 540,000 young people in Korea currently living in isolation but also for Korean society as a whole, suffering as it is today under the strain of hyperindividualism and disconnection. It is time for us to learn what we must do as a society to realize and expand on the possibilities demonstrated to us by this community of isolated youths.
