Question

These days, young people have a different opinion while making music and say they want to make music that comforts their fans.
It's not just to become popular, but to do the interviews by expressing that word.
Comfort that they say is nothing more than empathizing with other people's sorrows or difficulties.
But they say it is a comfort.
Then, is it becoming artwork when we utilize music or anything else for other people?
As Seusuengnim said, it seems that people named real artists to the people who were honestly showing their inner selves in the days of Van Gogh and Picasso.
Then, I am curious about what kind of meaning today's art should have in its creative activities.
The word consolation seems to be at a lower level.
Would you please give your answers so that young musicians can express something of a higher level?

Answer

Yes. You are making music, making art, doing philosophy, and doing these things now.
But if you really try to do what is needed in this society, you have to understand yourself and the laws of nature.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to do what society needs, and you just try this and that.
As if Psy would try a horse dance or people give out a song for comforting people, now comfort is important, but celebrities have to be ahead of the curve.
They should make music future-oriented by being ahead of their general fans, the people, and this society.
So, they have to play the role of leaders, and then their music will be the works.
It is not the time to call a song in which they understand the emotion of a crying person work.
There were many such works in the past, like Sexpier’s work, which sympathize with a lot of people at that time.
They were talking about what something exists (in society).
Whether live or die is an existing issue.
Those works had described that era.
The outstanding work of today is the work of a person who awakens and guides people who are staying still in our time.
The Jungbub that we are answering now is the best work among works.
We’re not doing anything that affects this society by touching it.
To make you understand this, I have to explain it.
You have to understand the paradox.
What paradox have you made up until 2012?
There were a lot of paradoxes.
But at that time, it was the time in which the information was very late.
So, some countries could get books and information but some countries couldn’t.
But some people went to Germany and read original books that deeply dealt with the issues.
which were not published in their countries.
When they returned to their country, they explained to their people who didn’t know because of no information.
They paradoxically explained the slightly high quality of knowledge to the people with the lower quality of knowledge.
They emphasized paradoxically with their knowledge that could awaken people’s sense of thought.
This paradox was the paradox of knowledge.
This was the paradox of more informed people.
But from 2013, what kind of paradox should it be?
It is easy to a paradox in other countries. But if you try to make a paradox in Korea from 2013, what kind of people do you try to make a paradox to?
(For example), you are very good at explaining world history while others don’t know world history. Then it’s a paradox.
It becomes a paradox when you break the world history others are thinking of with a new perspective from another country.
But what should be the paradox for Korea today?
It should be a paradox that breaks your common sense.
Korea is a society where common sense is established.
It should become a paradox only when a theory that breaks common sense emerges.
A paradox that breaks common sense.
Now, this will begin.
What is less than common sense cannot be a paradox.
So, we are all waiting for the paradox now.
All the people in the highest positions right now are people with common sense.
All the people who are in high positions, including politics and professors, have common sense.
So, if our young people, who have not yet settled their common sense and have fresh ideas, put their thoughts together and submit them, the people above block them.
They reject them, saying that those are thoughts below common sense.
So they don’t give young people Ph. Ds.
They don’t give them a degree, saying, “Why don’t you stop it as you have completed credits?”
Why? They say that young people’s thoughts don’t reach their (professors’) common sense.
So, there is no one who gets a Ph.D. right now.
It’s all plagiarism.
Such an era has now come.
So, we have to think about how to lead our people or humanity by awakening ourselves with the new sense of the new era.
This also can be a work.
You try to look at works only in paintings or music.
There is nothing in the world that is not a work.
There are refugees that I am talking about.
Refugees’ movements that happen now in the global village are kinds of artworks.
Refugees are moving.
It is also a work that the people in poor countries are moving to the rich countries for their living.
This is what’s happening in the world.
But no one can’t stop this and find a way.
Then, the work of the answer will not come out.
The great powers have tried to block them and are hesitating now whether they have to accept them or reject them while reading the thoughts of the world community.
Refugees from developing countries are moving to advanced countries, not to other developing countries.
So, they go to developed countries to live well.
The order has been well established, but the people of the poorest country are attacking now, so it is becoming a big problem.
So, they tied up the refugees by establishing a refugee camp, and they can’t even join them together.
They haven’t decided yet how to sort them out.
If you’ve found a way to organize these things, it means that you have found an answer, and then the answer will be the work of the works.
It is artwork that can save many people.
You have to find the answer.
Neither Buddhism nor Christianity can do it.
Any Ascetic study organizations and any powerful country cannot do this.
The mission of making the work “Don’t let those who are starving to death not starve” has come to us now, but we cannot even touch it.
Either the United Nations or the Vatican cannot deal with this issue now.
People are starving to death right now in humanity, but no one can stop this.
Anyone who can do this has to come out.
Only Koreans are the people who can do it, but they can’t design it since they can’t see the global village well because of no wisdom.
Even if I design it and give it away now, no one sees or hears it yet, but I am designing it all.
I said that we would get rid of hunger in 7 years, but it will not actually take 7 years but will only take 4 years.
It takes 7 years to make starvation not happen completely.
The superpowers, in which people live a good life and boast as the most powerful country in the world,
cannot solve this problem.
When the people who can solve this comes out, the world’s eyes return to them.
That is a work of art.
Let people who are selling and buying some paintings such as Monet’s works do it like that.
Now, the troubleshooters who can solve what happens in the global village should come out.
If you make artwork while recording everything that happens whenever the solvers solve a problem, people won’t pay attention to anything other than this work.
Would such people pay money to buy such a painting later?
Would the best people in the world recognize such work and pay for it?
If they have money, it’s right to give some bread to children who don’t have it.
Let them keep those works.
These are issues that need to be considered in the future.
Even if you criticize me, saying, “An ignorant guy can only think like that,” it’s good.
Still, hunger should be eliminated in the global village, and there must be no riots in underdeveloped countries.
That’s our destiny that we should do.
Without doing that, you have talked about Monet.
What nonsense is it?
From now on, let’s leave Monet in his place and do some things in the world.
The intellectuals are all caught up in it.
Leave them alone, really.
We have some work to do first, and then we will talk about the works we will see.
You don’t have anything to do but play with such things.
Brothers and sisters are dying all over the world.
I feel sorry that I’ve just unleashed this too blatantly.
I wish I could play a little more luxuriously, but I don’t have leisure hours now.
Let’s put some art down now.
Let’s put some art aside and do some authentic activities.
We can touch the artwork after doing our activities. Okay?
