It has been delivered to 13 libraries for the visually impaired across the country and can be accessed by any visually impaired person through the online-only system of the libraries for the visually impaired.'A Day's Inventory,' a full-length novel by Seong Hae-na, tells the story of a person who confronts the pain of loss while returning the belongings of others and finds their own life again.Muje's 'Listening Novel Project' is an attempt to first produce and distribute audiobooks for the visually impaired, unlike existing publishing methods. Park Jung-min has been consistently planning and operating related projects to improve the accessibility of books for the visually impaired.While audiobooks or braille books are usually produced after the publication of paper books, this project was designed to allow visually impaired people to access new works first. 'A Day's Inventory' is also planned to be released as a general audiobook and in paperback after its priority release to the visually impaired.The Korea Employment Agency for Persons with Disabilities said, "Park Jung-min not only donated the first listening novel 'First Summer, Wanju' last year but also meticulously reviewed whether visually impaired individuals had any inconvenience in using the audiobook and if there were any areas for improvement." "We are grateful to Park Jung-min and Muje for practicing meaningful sharing for the visually impaired again this year."Meanwhile, Park Jung-min, who founded Muje to inform society about the voices of the marginalized, has consistently offered help, not only by donating profits from his novel projects but also by inviting visually impaired individuals and their families to musicals he appeared in, such as 'Life of Pi,' and movies like 'Smugglers,' at his own expense. He was recognized for these contributions and received a commendation from the Minister of Health and Welfare on the 46th Disabled Persons' Day on April 20th.Furthermore, Park Jung-min is scheduled to meet global viewers in the role of the protagonist Han Yoo-hyun in the new Disney+ original series 'The Worst of Evil' (directed by Kim Hee-won).jiyoon-1031@tf.co.kr[Entertainment Department | ssent@tf.co.kr]
