Description 작품 소개

This is Yoon Go-eun's first short story collection, published in 2010.

In the stories told with ingenious imagination, there are events that are so closely related to our reality that they could truly happen, yet a world that we couldn't easily imagine unfolds.

The author adds a lively imagination to eight stories, including "One-Person Table," which tells the story of someone who eats lunch alone at work and struggles to connect with colleagues. These stories are presented in a cheerful style.
