How does Korean poet Kim So-yeon (김소연) define "moon" (달)?


"변해가는 모든 모습에서 '예쁘다'라는 말을 들어온 유일무이한 존재."

Moon
"In all its states of change, the one and only entity that has heard the word '예쁘다'"

예쁘다 can translate as "pretty," "beautiful," or "lovely."

The above Korean and the page below come from Korean poet Kim So-yeon's book "Dictionary of Single Words" ("한 글자 사전"). The English translation is mine.
