The Sad Reality of Death From Overwork in Korea — How Do We Slow Down and Care for Ourselves?

Overwork in Korea isn’t just exhausting — it’s becoming deadly. In this episode, we talk about the tragic reality of death from overwork in Korea, including the case that shook many people, and why this pattern keeps repeating in a society that glorifies endurance. This isn’t about blaming individuals for working hard — it’s about questioning a system that teaches people to ignore their limits until there’s nothing left. We also talk about something just as important: how to take care of yourself in a world that never seems to slow down. How to recognize burnout before it turns dangerous. And how to protect your health, your mind, and your life in a culture that often treats rest as weakness. If you’ve ever felt constantly tired, guilty for resting, or afraid to slow down — this conversation is for you. 🌟 Hey, I’m Megan Moon!
