★From the YouTube channel [15 Minutes That Can Never Change the World], psychiatrist Dr. Kim Sang-jun explores the complex, subtle, and hidden psychology within us through Greek mythology.

Even after thousands of years, the stories of Greek mythology continue to captivate us because they are symbolic of human history and touch our subconscious. The indivisible fragments of primitive psychology known as "archetypes" that exist within us are fully contained and active in Greek mythology.

The archetypes in our hearts include various forms such as greed, anger, obsession, love, betrayal, dependence, independence, sense of loss, empathy, desire for power, and humility. In myths, those who fall in love, those who betray love, those who sacrifice for others, and those who heal others, our archetypes are expressed through the characters in the myths, and thus we resonate with the myths. We could say that we are the protagonists of Greek myths living in the modern space.

Greek mythology is a story that everyone has read at least once. However, due to the numerous characters and the complex storylines in Greek mythology, it is not easy to understand. This book unfolds the complex stories of Greek mythology in a storytelling format that is easy and interesting, helping us to understand Greek mythology as if we had watched a movie, and prompting us to rethink:

● Did all the disasters in the world really start because of a woman named Pandora?
● Did Oedipus really have the intention to kill his father and take his mother?
● Did Psyche suffer all kinds of hardships because of her doubt about the god of love, and only then win love?
● Did Heracles undertake countless adventures in order to secure the position of the greatest hero?
● Why does Athena hate Medusa so much that she wears her head on her shield?
● Is Medea, who betrayed her father for love and killed her brother, an evil woman?
