In this moment the way of understanding the role of design is considerably different from the past. This commentary provides the issues and possibilities of "design thinking" from the viewpoint of GK Dynamics, which has long been engaged in design focusing on mobility through pondering about “design thinking" and how we are going to utilize it in business. The word "design thinking" has penetrated society and has been utilized in many scenes in companies and organizations, however various positive and negative opinions of its effectiveness exist. The interpretation of "design thinking" is diverse; some may believe it is "a way to solve problems using designers' thinking methods." The designer should already possess the ability in the first place. Also, one portion of the total solution does not have great value independently. Within a project, designers are required to have the ability to participate in the respective role of finding problems as a "design thinker," presenting solutions as "practical designers," and considering benefits as "users" in a timely manner. It is only now that the solution process as “design thinking” has been known widely, and whole society has recognized the importance and benefits of design, determining again the essence as "what to do" for various problems with human’s own imagination is getting significant.

Parag Khanna’s world tour through “Connectography: Mapping the Future of Global Civilization” provides the reader with vivid details of a connected world that we live in. The prime message of this book is connecting the global nodes through building infrastructure starting from oil pipelines to fibre optic cables. Exploring diverse arenas, this book gives an overview why “connectivity” is important for the entire world and not only for the selected few. Khanna’s pervading visionary approach covers bits and pieces of almost everything to make the world connected for future prosperity. However, a question still remains about how consistently his views about connected world will hold amidst tensions in this geopolitical world.

Abstract “Breakthrough” global blockbusters like Black Panther (2018) and Crazy Rich Asians (2018) create disturbances among critics and firms forced to wonder if such ripples of diversity will become waves of new cinema wiping out the hegemony of Hollywood and the global West. In this essay, we establish the context for this phenomenon in terms of film’s historical relationship to marketing. Through this context, we theorize a transnational aesthetic for global blockbusters, one that may serve to limit ripples of diversity, breaking waves of change against the rocks of a banal cinema of Americanized nothingness.
