OnTrack (온트랙)

Hi listeners, It’s monsoon season here in Seoul. While you wait for a new OnTrack episode, here’s a new Midnight Typewriter piece. Next time you walk out in the rain, notice how your one umbrella is what keeps you dry. Rihanna had a point. Stay dray! ☔️ For those of you wondering what Midnight Typewriter is… In addition to our regular OnTrack episodes, we’ve been trying something new. This one is...

김그린, 윤선생 그리고 2020 디투어 팟캐스트의 시작을 함께했던 오늘의 스페셜 게스트 러셀. 그해 방황 끝에 했던 취직도 어느덧 6년이 지나갔네요. 그 사이 우리는 얼마나 망가졌을까요. 건축을 꿈꿨던 사람, 따뜻한 변호사를 꿈꿨던 사람, 시트콤 만들기를 꿈꿨던 사람이 모였습니다. 꿈꿨던 장면의 1%는 이뤄졌고, 99%는 예상 못 했던 페이퍼 워크와 가짜 졸림과 위경련이었어요. 7살의 내가 지금의 나를 보면 자랑스러워할까...

원소윤의 『꽤 낙천적인 아이』는 멀지도 않은 사람이 쓴, 멀지도 않은 이야기인데... (실제로 김그린의 학교 직속 선배이기도 함) 왜인지 덮고 나니 살 만하다는 기분이 들었습니다. 거창한 위로도, 뼈 때리는 교훈도 아닌데, 이게 좋은 코미디, 좋은 책이 하는 일이겠죠. 삶이 다 별 의미 없다고 느껴질 때, 다 정해진 결과, 다 비슷한 스토리인데 웃음이 다 무슨 소용인가.. 싶은 분들에게 이 책과 이 에피소드를 추천합니다....

빅펌 1년 차 변호사와, 부산으로 떠날 재판연구원이 만났다. 대형 로펌에서 1년 차로 일하고 있는 변호사 김그린, 막 변호사 시험을 끝내고 부산 권역 재판연구원으로 향하는 리클럭, 그리고 두 친구를 잇는 주선자 윤 선생. 직업 얘기로 시작했지만 어느새 권태, 추구미, 따뜻한 사람이 되는 법까지 흘러갔다. '오늘까지 해달라는 일이 3개인 날' 을 살아내는 1년 차의 한숨, '판사님들은 혼자 있잖아요. 그게 너무...

Hello listeners, It’s Midnight Typewriter again. Here’s something to think about. How do you define a happy life? I define it as ‘a life without restrictions’. Listen to hear why and how to achieve it. I was listening to S. Rachmaninoff. Symphony No 2. Movement 3 while writing. Which is why I only recorded my voice today. Hope you enjoy. All written out by typewriter, no AI involved anywhere, 100%...

Hi listener, it’s been a while. Hope you enjoyed our latest episode. Lately I’ve been snowed under work and I recently developed a sort of loathing for my work. Hence, I’ve been writing about that, but somehow those turned out short, bad and incomplete. But today, I started out writing about whether I should engage or disengage. It led me to something else, a realization at the end. So here it is,...

[스페셜 게스트 출연] 이번 편은 김그린과 윤선생(?)이 이어준 부부와 태어날 새싹이와 함께 합니다. 김그린과 윤선생님의 절친이자, 새싹이의 엄마이기도 한 미셸과 김그린의 절친인 새싹이 아빠와 함께 해보았습니다. (지독하게 얽힌 우리 사이) 결혼 1년 차 부부가 아이를 맞이하기 직전, 그 순간을 담아보았습니다. - 미셸과 형부가 만나게 된 비하인드 스토리 (feat. 이모1) - 새싹이 성별 & 본명 대공개! - “너는 특별하지...

I’ve been thinking about just how important it is to feel connected to others. Especially after reading ‘The Courage to be Disliked’ and ‘The Extinction of Experience’. Today I write about comparing myself with an old lady who cleans cars in the company car park. Thanks for listening to Midnight Typewriter. 100% human made.

How much money do you make? How much money do you own? How wealthy do you want to be? How should you answer those questions? Tonight, after a conversation with a colleague, I wrote about how difficult talking about money is.

Take A Mini Break - Midnight Typewriter This is my small tip for a less stressful day or week. Blocking off time and taking your mind off things that you usually think about/worry about. In a world full of AI generated content, I guarantee you all of this is 100% human made. Even what I am typing here in the descriptions. As you know, our usual segments are recorded in Korean. But on the sidelines...

태국 산에서 20kg 배낭을 메고 걷다가 비누 하나도 무거워서 버렸습니다. 아니 이렇게 사람이 살면서 뭐가 필요가 없구나 싶었죠. 그런데 한국에 돌아오자마자 또 무언가를 사고 싶어졌습니다. 월급은 들어오고, 계속해서 소비합니다. 우리는 왜 벗어나지 못할까요? 그리고 평화로운 어느 날, “이 닭장 같은 평화가 지겹다”는 생각이 스치자마자 처음으로 차를 긁었습니다. 왜 우리는 고통이 있어야 살아 있는 느낌이 들까요. 사회...

Dear listener, Thank you for tuning in to OnTrack’s ‘Midnight Typewriter’. Today, I write about ‘doomscrolling’ and how that could be our effort to find ourselves. You’ll hear me type and then at the end, read what I wrote. I hope you enjoy this 100% human made episode. Always open to feedback!

[I Scraped a Mercedes While Parking- Midnight Typewriter] The Pendulum that Swings Between Pain and Boredom That evening, after complaining that nothing ever changes in my life, I chipped a Mercedes in a parking lot. In one careless second, boredom turned into regret. That’s how the pendulum swings—just when you grow tired of peace, it hands you pain. Today, I think about that pendulum that keeps...

[What I Learned from Sleeping in the Mountains in Thailand - Midnight Typewriter] I just came back from Thailand where I hiked from village to village. My bag weighed almost 20kgs and I hiked the steep mountains of Chiang Dao and definitely felt the weight of owning too many clothes and products. I’ll write some more on this trip later but for now, this is what I have. For the most part, you’ll he...

Why do things need to end? It’s a question that I’ve asked myself since I was a child. I wonder if you did too. I digress in this piece a bit but like always, I come to some sort of understanding by the last line. I’ll explore the idea of endings more in future episodes. Listen to the whole process of typewriting and me reading what I wrote.
