A young man in South Korea built an online temple. A temple is a place where people pray. His website, Sansa, offers a quiet break. Park Jin-won made it with help from AI while looking for a job.
Visitors move small characters around the temple. They can sit, bow or listen to songs used for prayer. They can see other visitors, but they cannot chat. There is no place to send messages.
Park wanted to rest when looking for work made him tired. Visiting a real temple took time and energy. His website may help people feel calm. But it cannot solve their job problems or replace a real temple.
