About Book

Breakazine has been around for 16 years and is now releasing its final issue.

Looking back at the years spent with Hongkongers,

What did the magazine achieve, and what did it fail to achieve?

 

Review and self-assessment are omnipresent in all aspects of life;

However, in an era where only good news is reported, bad news is suppressed, and people only look forward without reviewing the past,

Can we genuinely examine ourselves,

Instead of going through formal and rigid procedures?

 

The subject of Breakazine's final "inquiry" is ourselves.

Young people, replacing the editors who recused themselves, interviewed the magazine's close stakeholders,

From readers and bookstores to partners, they gave their most candid thoughts and comments;

The editorial team, in turn, tried to visit various interviewees who "began with the end in mind,"

To ponder the possibilities of the future.

 

Starting with questions, breaking through blind spots, seeing reality, transforming oneself,

Break See Change is not only the magazine's motto,

But also our hope for it to become our attitude towards life,

Until the day we meet again, may we both have become better.
