mmm... seems like wuri yong joon really does love books.
both sweet sister and i are both stumped by an author's name from this article.
as you know, she translates the japanese articles into english,
and names are sort of romanized.
she's tried long and hard, and i've tried not so long but just as hard,
but we just can't figure out which author the article's referring to.
if anyone of you knows which patrick this is, pray tell!

BYJ, Avid Reader
Whenever BYJ has the time, he reads books. His favorite authors are Murakami Haruki and Patrick Juskinto (?). He is currently interested in Raymond Carver’s collection of short stories, Short Cuts. He likes the book because the book is composed like a movie and it loosely describes everyday life. And when he hits the wall or agonizes over a problem, it is said that he re-reads Dr Spencer Johnson’s book, The Present, a number of times. He does this so that he can get in touch with his true self.
It is said that when others come to him and confide in him with their problems, he gives them accurate advice. This may be due to the fact that he regularly reads books and the knowledge he obtains from books maybe a gift.
