Hail to the emperor!
--title of a novel by Yi Mun-yeol
Student demonstration pervasive with Pepper Fog, people's march of
the June Revolution, Kwangju and so on. Crystal clear was an Antagonist
against which all felt enough. Aparatus for the power ran in an
incipient fashion. Behind of all the scenery, smiling was Marx.
No one seems to know to whom pointing fingers. Antagonist disappeared.
Blindingly foggy is the reality of power man. It's bureaucracy, you
know? A woven fabric of almighty thing, in the Capitalistic society;
no, it's Post-industrial one. Peoples will be blamed, not the power
game whose face shines in smiling. The structure itself as a whole in
the bureaucratic society.
At one time the ruler was individualized and the mass was anonymous.
Now the bureaucracy is anonymous and the subject is individualized.^1
Was Simpson smiling? I'm not sure.
