Book ID/图书代码: 06495019C00009
English Summary/英文概要: parents believe that teaching their children nunchi is as important as teaching them to cross the road safely. With great nunchi, it feels like the world is on your side. Without it, you might get hit by something you never saw coming.
If you’re thinking ‘not another Eastern fad, Marie Kondo already made me throw half my clothes away’, don’t worry: it’s not a fad. Koreans have been using nunchi to overcome slings and arrows for over 5000 years.
The great news is that anyone can hone their nunchi, immediately: all you need are your eyes and ears. In everything from finding love to excelling at work, improving your nunchi will help you to open doors you never knew existed.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 你不需要成為趨炎附勢的小人,但你需要能夠聰明應對和自然提升人際連結的能力。
你或許聽過「讀空氣」,但你聽過Nunchi嗎?
Nunchi這個詞來自韓文的「눈치」,直翻的意思是「看眼色」,意義類似中文說的察言觀色。在察言觀色方面,韓國人可以說是將之提升到了藝術的境界,Nunchi指的不單只是察言觀色,也是指能夠微妙地衡量他人情緒並做出合宜應對的能力,為的是要增進彼此的關係,而為了做到這點還有賴於對對方背景和周遭環境的了解,簡而言之,這是一種為了能夠更好與他人互動而發展的綜合能力。
本書作者Euny Hong在十二歲時全家由芝加哥移居南韓,因此深諳西方與東方兩種文化的差異,使她能更細微地觀察到所謂Nunchi的能力是指什麼,她能夠以局外人的眼光仔細分析,也能夠以浸潤東方文化的當事者深刻理解,因此,
她主張Nunchi是一種可以學習、精進的技藝!在本書中,她運用大量有趣的生活情境例子,一步一步引導讀者,有些你可能會覺得理所當然,有些則像一記警鐘,提醒了你從未注意過的部分。她還以簡單的測驗問題,讓你測試自己的「Nunchi力」達到哪一個等級,不論你的年齡、職業、興趣,「Nunchi力」的增進都還可以更好、更自然,你不需要成為趨炎附勢的小人,但你需要能夠聰明應對和自然提升人際連結的能力。

About the Author/作者介绍: Euny Hong是一名記者,著有The Birth of Korean Cool一書,她曾為《紐約時報》、《華盛頓郵報》、《華爾街日報》、《波士頓環球報》和《金融時報》等媒體撰稿。她在12歲時由芝加哥舉家搬遷至韓國,從不認得半個韓文字,一年之後她就成為了全班第一名,這都要歸功於她的Nunchi力,她自稱為「Nunchi忍者」。她將時間分配在紐約和巴黎之間,她精通英語、韓語、法語、德語,還有Nunchi。
Euny Hong is the author of The Birth of Korean Cool and a journalist who has written for The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Boston Globe, and the Financial Times. A self-described ‘nunchi ninja’, at age twelve she moved with her family from suburban Chicago to South Korea, not knowing Korean, and within a year was at the top of her class – thanks to her nunchi. She divides her time between New York and Paris and is fluent in English, Korean, French, German – and nunchi.
