“중장년층 고립에서 ‘한국 고독사의 얼굴’ 보게 됐죠”
"고립되어 죽어간 사람들의 이야기를 통해 이 사회에 질문을 던지고 싶었어요" stated Song In-joo, the representative of '스스로랩'. Recently, she published 'A Lonely Society' (by Kim Yong-sa) which analyzed 11 cases of solitary deaths. Based on her ten years of research and field visits, she focused her book on middle-aged men and young adults who face death due to social reasons. The book includes 11 stories of men who faced death due to various factors like business failure, job loss, health issues, and divorce.
