Description

A debut novel set in contemporary Seoul, Korea, explores the lives of four young women navigating a world defined by impossible standards of beauty and social hierarchies. Their stories are intertwined by chance, revealing the solace that friendship can sometimes provide in the face of adversity. Kyuri, Miho, Ara, and Wonna are four women with distinct struggles and aspirations, each trying to find their place in a society that values youth, beauty, and conformity. As they navigate their relationships and ambitions, they must confront the harsh realities of their world, from the exclusive underground bars where they work to the brutal economy that threatens their very existence. Through their experiences, this novel offers a powerful and thought-provoking portrayal of female strength, resilience, and the complexities of female friendship in a society that often seeks to control and commodify women's bodies and lives.
