Cho Nam-joo is such an amazing writer, and I loved her subtle writing, where everything has multiple meanings. Her writing is so poetic, and she has such a talent when it comes to writing that it is impossible to ignore. I love her writing and this story is amazing.

After the fantastic novel “Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982” Cho Nam-Joo’s returns with a collection of short stories, about live as a women in Korean society. It is both a book where you learn about Korean culture but also sexism that transcends the culture. My favorit story was “Dear Hyunnam Oppa”, written in the form of a letter of a women to her ex-boyfriend, where she is looking back at their time together. Eight gripping stories about women in Korean society that will keep you thinking about them for long after you finished reading.
