Because confidence comes at such a young age, I think it gave me the confidence that I was a sophisticated reader

who could read other books, too. I just read it; it's the first book written by this person.

Is this the first book of *Time to Carrier*? It's the first book. And then, I wrote more than 40 books so far.

When I saw them, I thought, "Huh? A lawyer is writing a novel?" Until then,

I thought novelists wrote novels, but then I thought, I could write one, too. In fact, I think Mr. Cha In-pyo is the originator of the slow-aging trend

that is popular these days. I wish it were so, but it wasn't. I just found out about your age.

Your age? Your age? Ah, now it's time for your age to come out. Nice to meet you.

Long time no see. About two years? One year? So, I saw you on Channel A, and there is a poster here,

but is this your space as writer Cha In-pyo? Yes, I used to write here sometimes,

and I wrote *Mermaid Hunt* here. And this is a space where we sometimes meet when guests come over,

and it is a small but wonderful space that is well-maintained and very nice. Actually, I was really curious about author Cha In-pyo's study.

Looking at it like this, there are photos, and I can feel a lot of traces of work being done.

Sometimes you do it here, and sometimes you go to a library and do it. I find it more comfortable to write in a place with a high ceiling.

It's not that much better here, but sometimes I go to the library. So, out of all the books you have here,

how many percent do you own? You bought a lot of books. Oh yes, there are many in the bookstore and scattered here and there.

Some of the things here are things I bought because I was interested in them, and some are now meaningful to me.

For example, this book is a Bible my father gave me when he passed away last year. But it's fun to look at.

There's writing here. In 1961, someone gave a book to a man named Ken as a Christmas present.

It was called *The Ken with Love*. The Lord watched between me and the... It was a gift that included Genesis 31:49.

But this Ken gave to my father in August 1963. He wrote, “To my precious brother in Christ, Mr.

Cha,” and gave it to me as a gift, along with similar phrases. And my father had this book, and it's meaningful to me.

It's a book that's over 60 years old, and it has this kind of history. Before he became known as the writer Cha In-pyo,

who tells us about the time that seems to pass by quickly, he was famous as an actor who read a lot of books during his time as an actor.

Is that so? Do you have any special tips for reading books? I like novels and I also read essays.

For example, I want to read about mermaids. Then, just prepare all the books related to mermaids

and go to the library and buy them, or whatever, and set them up right at the beginning? So, it's like one thing after another.

If you do this, you will want to see this again, and this is now a life of exploration.

It's more fun to read a book that way. So, rather than reading one book and then reading another genre,

I think it's more fun to start digging into one and go a little deeper and wider. I've said this in other videos,

but I've heard that if you have a field of interest, you can gain almost expert-level knowledge.

By reading at least 20 books, I think that once you decide on a subject, you have to read about a dozen books to make it a novel.

If you could introduce this bookshelf a little more, I wonder what kinds of books you would like.

Wow, it's really... No, I read them all. There are books that I bought just to read.

and things like that. These are *The Brothers Karamazov*. They're really thick. This is not the book I read,

but I bought it for a reason. Is it clean? Yes, I haven't read this. The reason I bought

it was because it was the first English novel I read in full when I was 21 and a freshman in college.

Actually, it wasn't this book at the time, but this is a Korean book, and the reason I did it was because I wanted to study English,

but at the time, I was studying during the day and working at night, so I didn't have time, but about

30-40 minutes before going to bed, it was completely my time. So, I put this brick-like book down every day

and read 10 pages a day, 5 pages a day, and finished it in about 8 months.

But after I finished it, I still don't know what the message was or what the author's intention was,

but one thing that doesn't change is that I finished reading this thick book. I think that pride, not being hungry,

and having confidence at a young age gave me the confidence that I was a sophisticated reader who could read other books.

So I'm really thankful for the book *The Brothers Karamazov*. I read a book that seemed difficult,

whether it would be food or death. It wasn't intentional, but as I read it, it was a thick book and a difficult book,

But I read it all the way through, and I think it gave me a lifelong joy of reading.

A momentum to challenge myself with reading. And in their book, Mr. Ibuchu-ri gives Mr.

Nagodan 5,000 won to buy him a meal. In fact, isn't it true that all of these things are derived from that?

I think that my experiences as a reader, whether I know it or not, are absorbed into my life as a writer,

and that those experiences come out as another experience and are expressed. Is there another book that influenced author Cha In-pyo?

There may be some people who will try this challenge after watching this video. Each book has a great story and is good.

Is this book also in English? These are all novels by a writer named John Grisham. You know John Grisham?

You were a very popular lawyer back in our time, weren't you? So this book, this book

called *A Time to Kill*, this is an English novel, and this person is a lawyer. But I read this book when I was in college,

and it was the first book written by this person. Is *A Time to Kill* his first book? This is my first book.

And then, I wrote more than 40 books so far, and when I saw them, I thought, "Huh?

A lawyer writes a novel? Until then, I thought novelists wrote novels, but lawyers write them? Then, I can write them

too?" I was able to break free from such stereotypes. So, in the end, he was a role model

who broke the stereotype that made me think about trying to become a novelist, even though I learned about it later.

And you bought a bunch of John Grisham books. That's why I collected them. Every time this person publishes a book,

Grisham's books are often made into dramas or movies. I hope author Talicanbul's book is like that too. Thank you.

When you say Mr. Cha In-pyo, you mean someone who is like a symbol of routine?

Is that so? As a writer, we're going to interview you later, and I was curious.

When I look at Haruki Murakami, he wakes up at a set time, runs, and writes.

What time do you maintain a routine? When I interviewed writer Cha In-pyo, he said that he woke up at 4:30 at the time.

How is it? Do you tend to follow a routine when it comes to writing and reading? That was about two years ago.

When I was editing a book called *Inner Hunt*, I woke up at 4:30, did all my morning work,

and then came here and edited it for six months. That kind of routine is necessary. I need to make time to devote at least a few hours a day to writing,

so I wake up around 5:30 now. Ironically, in the past, the fact that I was writing

a novel was not known even though I published a book. I had a lot of time to write back then,

but now it's a bit more well-known. I have to promote it and the book is out, so I'm busy.

So, paradoxically, I became known through writing, but I think I have less time to write.

So, after this promotional period is over and things have quieted down a bit, I'm thinking about having a quieter time.

Among the routines I heard at that time, there were some words that really impressed me and changed me.

I've been exercising for almost 2 years now. If I can't make it to the set time, I do whatever I can to get at least 2 hours a day.

Oh, even now? Yes, but back then, when I woke up in the morning, I would do the exercise I hated the most.

Yes, that's right. Do you still do that now? Even now, I don't exercise on an empty stomach,

but I do exercise anyway. And I don't do it because I absolutely love working out; I just think of it as my friend, and what was really shocking at the time

was that Cha In-pyo also hates working out; it's hard, and it's hard when you go out.

But I do the thing I hate the most first. But it would be good if you went out and started exercising.

In fact, I think Mr. Cha In-pyo is the originator of the slow aging that's popular these days.

I wish it were so, but it wasn't. I just found out something new this time; Yonsei is Yonsei.

Now that you're at the age where you can get your year-end bonus, you'll be more surprised than you think.

I think it's the first time I've heard the term "years" since I probably know my real age.

Don't you have any work notes or diaries or anything like that here? Yes? There is no diary.

Don't you have any work notes? Work notes are separate notes. So, I write everything on my laptop,

but what else should I show you? No, I heard that you originally kept a lot of records,

so how do you write novels? I write diaries. I've been writing a diary every day for 18 years now.

Are you still writing it now? Yes, you appeared this morning. The reason I write a diary is

because I can define myself by looking at the diary. Would you like to have a conversation with me to find out what kind of person I am?

Me, the reader, am the only me. I'm not writing this for my descendants to see later,

but as a reminder. Does knowing who I am help you when writing a novel? Yes. In what way? I think it can serve as a reference point

to help people regain their sense of identity when they are writing something new or when they are going down a side road.

When I first announced that I was publishing a novel, I think there were many people who were reluctant to believe it

because they had a strong image of me as an actor. Now you are a full-fledged writer. What kind of writer would you say inspires your creations?

Are there any precious moments or routines that bring about such things? Separately? When I meet other people,

I have that 'aha' moment when I want to understand their minds or circumstances. I put a family photo in the space so they don't forget.

This is a picture of me working as an actor, and I guess I'm living a luxurious life.

I'm living a luxurious life. We took a look at the space of writer Cha In-pyo together.

I met Mr. Cha In-pyo during a news interview, and I remember reading *Mermaid Hunt* and enjoying it
