"Midnight Readers" is a comprehensive digital humanities and spiritual culture platform that supports various humanities content, information, and humanities archiving. It features prominent figures from the cultural and artistic fields reading aloud famous passages from books. The program engages with the public by exchanging stories and providing real-time feedback.


Siwa will appear in the third episode, airing at 9 PM on the 17th, introducing "Sentences that Comfort Me" under the theme "Have you ever found yourself swayed by the desire to be loved?"


He is a former special education teacher who debuted in 2007. His third album, "Continuing Without Staying," was nominated for Best Folk Album at the 2015 Korean Music Awards. He has released four full-length albums, several mini-albums, and singles.


Siwa's reading will focus on Dr. Jung Hye-shin's psychological essay "You Are Right."


In particular, he reflects on the fact that the desire for recognition is never something to be ashamed of. He plans to discuss topics such as "Advanced interpersonal skills begin with self-empathy" and "You must first remove the mental hurdles that make self-empathy difficult."


Season 1 of "Midnight Readers," airing through February, will feature film director Jang Hang-jun, actress Lee Seol, travel writer Choi Gap-su, novelist Kim Jung-hyuk, and writer and YouTuber Kim Gyeoul.
