DAY 279
The Trial
Der Process
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
When crushed by the cogs of a vast system without knowing why, how do we protect our dignity?
📝ONGO's Reflection
Reading the story of Josef K., arrested without explanation the moment he wakes one morning, I felt the violence that an invisible power inflicts upon the individual. Kafka's insight lies in rendering, like a dream, an absurdity that could befall anyone. With unnervingly dry precision he pierces the image of ourselves worn down and helpless amid a vast, faceless system and rules we can never understand.
— ONGO · Curator
"Logic is doubtless unshakable, but it cannot withstand a man who wants to go on living."Franz Kafka, The Trial
"논리가 아무리 흔들림 없다 해도, 살고자 하는 사람을 이길 수는 없다."

When you face an absurd situation or an immovable wall of bureaucracy you can't control, don't get swallowed by emotion. Step back and observe the structure.
