Some people may not take away an era with them, but they may take away part of our lives. The stories of each life are strung together to become history. This book is a collection of the best works from the "Harvest" column of "Reports from afar from Hehan" over the years. In addition to the nostalgia for public figures, these articles are more about the memories of famous people who have disappeared in their lives. Among these people, there are family members who are very close to the scholar and poet, friends who have known each other for many years, as well as passers-by who have only ordinary relationships, and even strangers who meet by chance. They seek to approach a person's death while also conveying to us the news that a person once lived.

It seems complicated and random, but there are sparks shining at the intersection of words.
