불타버린 구룡마을
불타버린 구룡마을2014.11.09 Lee Heehoon / ohmynews 구룡마을엔 언젠가 갈일이 있을 거라 생각했다. 오늘 문정동에서 집에 돌아오는 길 시커먼 연기가 산을 넘어 보였다. 예사 불이 아니라는 직감에 '혹식 구룡마을 아냐?'라는 걱정으로 연기를 추적했다. 혹시나가 역시나기 되었다. 대형화재는 또 처음이었다. 연기를 다 들어마셔가며 동네를 한바퀴 돌았다. 재난현장의 재난민은 항상 격분해 있고 상기 되었다. 사진을 찍는 것에 대한 반감이 있어 처음엔 공격적이던 주민들도 귀를 여는 순간 협조자가 되어 있었다.

"Poverty and Isolation of Middle-aged People in Gongsi-chon"
Poverty and Isolation of Middle-aged People in Gongsi-chon 대학동이라는 낯선 이름대학동 골목마다 빈방을 알리는 전단이 빛바래 바람에 흔들린다. 차 한 대가 겨우 다닐 좁은 골 목을 따라 오를수록 높아지는 경사만큼 전단의 방값은 내려간다.고시촌이라 하면 문뜩 떠오르는 이곳은 서울대가 있는 관악산 아래 자리하고 있다. 2017년 사 법시험이 폐지되었고 코로나19 탓에 유학생도 줄면서 방값은 더 내려가고 방이 비면 차지 않는다.The unfamiliar name, DaehakdongIn the alleyways of Daehakdong, flyers advertising vacant rooms sway in the wind.
