This follows Min as he struggles to understand his girlfriend Yu-Jin‘s apparent suicide, alternating with chapters from Yu-Jin‘s perspective. The style worked here, I enjoyed the slow unfolding of Yu-Jin‘s story and the pressures she was under. I loved returning to Korea, this time Seoul. My only complaint is that it was so very slow I became impatient with it at times but overall, despite the subject, a sweet, quiet, gentle read.
