| A Week As Veganism |
 |
Veganism is a form of vegetarianism excluding not only meat and fish but also animal-derived foods such as eggs and dairy products. Some people choose vegetarian diets out of concern for health, the environment, and animal welfare. Then, could someone accustomed to a meat-centered diet transition to veganism? For me, abstract debates mattered less than my next meal. I wondered what would remain on my plate without meat, and whether I could still eat my fill when dining out. |
| Expanding Public Psychological Counseling: How to Ensure Professional Quality? |

A proposed amendment to the Enforcement Decree of the Mental Health and Welfare Act has sparked debate over the scope of practice for public mental health counseling personnel.

Sports merchandise is moving beyond game-day gear into fashion and everyday life. |
| Climate Inequality Hidden Behind the Disaster in Nepal |
| On Aug. 26, sudden flash floods and debris flows struck the Himalayan border region between Nepal and Tibet, engulfing entire villages and critical infrastructure. Torrential streams of mud and glacial meltwater devastated homes, schools, and bridges across northern Nepal’s Rasuwa and Nuwakot districts. According to an initial assessment by ReliefWeb, the disaster may have been caused by a Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOF) or another upstream hydrological event, although the exact cause remains under investigation. |
| [Desk Column] Embracing the Gray Area |
| We live in an era where clarity feels like a prerequisite for peace of mind. We hastily categorize strangers through four-letter Myer-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) types, while social media feeds remain saturated with binary outcomes; success or failure, happiness or misery, and flawless self-discipline or total lack thereof. In this instinctual dichotomy—where the world is neatly sliced into black and white, right and wrong—any state that defies clear categorization is routinely dismissed as uncertainty or incompetence. |
