Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop

A light, almost melancholic read about life and where it leads us. Is it okay to do what you want in life? Is it okay to not want to be part of the rat race and live at your own pace?

Follow the lives of the employees of Hyunam-Dong bookshop as they struggle with the rat race and their decision to leave it, which brings together people from different walks of life but who have all asked the same question - is it worth it?

Relationships are masterfully woven without excess romance or spice, but just the slow, gentle appreciation that one person can have for another. The acknowledgement that who we are today might not be who we are tomorrow, and changing our lives is not always a bad thing.

This was a great cosy read that left me questioning my decisions in life, and made me more motivated to get to where I actually want to be, instead of where I think I should be.
