Description 작품 소개
Two Women Live Together is a story of courageous women who have chosen to invent a whole new molecular formula for living, instead of following the standard path or formula that society compels one to internalize and adhere to. While forcefully kicking back against a society that looks askance at those leading a life out of the box, the book also bubbles with energy, exploring new ways of living together, leaning on one other, and achieving growth. The book simultaneously explores the story of two individuals with vastly different approaches to life—a maximalist and a minimalist, an extrovert and an introvert, a confrontational person and a conflict-averse one—who, after enduring a series of “grand battles,” come to understand and learn from each other. The two women and their four furry cats, through cohabitation under one roof, learn about the lives of others and expand their own worlds. In instances they clash with the context of another person’s life, they willingly smooth out their own rough edges, communicate with consideration for the other’s perspective, and through this process, experience even greater personal growth.
The book, thus, has been dubbed as the “Bible of cohabitation” by those seeking and contemplating new forms of housing and cohabitation. It is a story about discovering oneself through others and learning how to live together without losing one’s identity. To the anxious youths troubled by intangible threats from this world, and to individuals of the modern society constantly warned that living as they please will lead to ruin, authors Kim Hana and Hwang Seonwu offer encouragement tinged with humor. They reassure that it’s okay to live differently, and while there may be some challenges along the way, choosing an alternative path does not lead to dire consequences.
