Needing food
문화적 배경
The 'matpakke' is a cultural institution. If you are 'sulten' at work, you eat your open-faced sandwiches at exactly 11:30. Norwegians often use 'ulvesulten' (wolf-hungry), reflecting the country's wild nature and folklore. In Norwegian business culture, being 'sulten' is a positive trait in a new hire, signifying drive. Knut Hamsun's 'Sult' is one of the most famous Norwegian novels, making hunger a symbol of the struggling artist.
