How did your morning start today? We invite you on a magical journey with Mr. Ttugo and Mr. Nobyeol! Beep, beep goes the alarm, and with sleepy eyes, another day begins. Spring, summer, fall, winter — the seasons drift by unnoticed, changing like a stage backdrop moment by moment. But has the expression on your face as you greet the morning, or the steps you take as you leave the house, changed at all? In As I Keep Driving, Mr. Ttugo faces a clear sky above a road jammed with traffic. The cars lined up in rows differ in color and kind, but the faces of everyone inside them — Mr. Ttugo included — are filled with impatience and boredom. Just then, Mr. Ttugo follows the mechanical voice of his navigation system guiding him onto a new route, and turns onto a quiet road. Could he really escape the traffic jam he's grown so used to, so cleanly, so dramatically? Could there really be a new path he never knew about on a road he's traveled so many times? And then, from the suddenly malfunctioning navigation device, out pops Nobyeolli Navigationus! Half dream, half reality, a special journey begins between Mr. Nobyeol and Mr. Ttugo! What awaits Mr. Ttugo, weary from his daily routine? A drive picture book that offers the gift of cool breezes and rest Following Nobyeol's lead as if in a trance, Mr. Ttugo passes through a tunnel and is welcomed by a festival of flowers and trees cheering him on, the coziness of a cloud bed wrapping him in deep sleep, and a special lunchbox savored at the 'best restaurant on earth' — a time of sweet rest and comfort. With his belly puffed out toward the sky and a wide smile on his face, Mr. Ttugo radiates a sense of ease and happiness, as if he's embraced the whole world. As you look through As I Keep Driving, you feel as though you're riding along in Mr. Ttugo's car — as if the wind is brushing past your ears, birds are chattering endlessly, leaves are swaying and waving, and clouds are quietly drifting by, telling their own stories. Now, Mr. Nobyeol and Mr. Ttugo speed joyfully down an open road. Freed for a moment from the obligations and worries that had been nibbling away at his mind, Mr. Ttugo lets himself soak in the temperature and feel of the seawater at his feet, the sound of waves washing in, and the sea breeze brushing his cheeks. "You can go anywhere along that road. So, where should we go now?" Mr. Nobyeol, who had been asked all along where they were headed, turns the question back to Mr. Ttugo. Where will Mr. Ttugo drive toward now? There's a newfound liveliness in his steps and in the sight of him walking away. Even if daily life casts shadows — the crush of packed subway cars, the never-ending pressure of work, anxious exam schedules, worries about the future, family who don't quite understand, or disappointment toward friends — perhaps, as we keep driving, we'll sometimes meet Mr. Nobyeol, ready to accompany us down a 'new path.'
