Description 작품 소개

A heart-warming novel set in a South Korean bookshop, about finding acceptance and comfort with the healing power of books. 


Yeong-ju did everything she was supposed to, go to university, marry a decent man, get a respectable job. Then it all fell apart. Burned out, Yeong-ju abandons her old life, quits her high-flying career, divorces her husband, and follows her dream. 


She opens a bookshop. In a quaint neighbourhood in Seoul, surrounded by books, Yeong-ju and her customers take refuge. From the lonely barista to the unhappily married housewife, and the writer who sees something special in Yeong-ju - they all have disappointments in their past. 


The Hyunam-Dong Bookshop becomes the place where they all learn how to truly live. Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop is a heart-warming story about finding comfort and acceptance in your life - and the healing power of books.
