Review

Reference [Comments from readers]
- The words that can empower people just by reading them are like a carefully prepared healthy and delicious meal.
- I lost myself in the beautiful scenery that floated before my eyes and the fragrance of spring that I smelled.
- Whenever I was in trouble, I could feel the quiet and warm welcome from Eugene and the clerks when I turned the pages.
- This book is like the morning sun, brightening and healing a dim and melancholy heart.
- A book that gently cares for my heart. I have been broken for such a long time.
- It was like a place that seemed to exist somewhere, and I unknowingly went on a search.
- I wanted to set out immediately to see the twinkling fireflies on a midsummer night.
- Precious memories came to my mind, as if I entered Cyworld again.
- I need this space. A place to rest when I am physically and mentally exhausted…

Description

Eugene the local in Seoul bought a field in a remote rural area Soyang by chance, and she ran a book house here which was named "Soyang-ri Kitchen-Book House."

College friends at their 30s, a superstar with a glamorous appearance but a broken heart, a lawyer who was suddenly diagnosed with cancer on the road to success, a man who suffered repeated setbacks in the pursuit of his dreams and closed his heart after his friends betrayed him and his mother passed away... They came to "Soyang-ri Kitchen-Book House" with their own sorrows.

Here, someone wrote a beautiful piece of music turns in the moment of gazing at the stars in the night sky; someone started to write a letter to oneself when looking at the cherry blossoms fluttering in the wind; someone stayed here for a month and wrote a fairy tale about a little wizard embarking on an adventure; and a man who had fallen into the abyss of life remembered a song which resided in his warm memories with his mother. The seasons changing, guests with different stories came here to read books and rest to spend time, confide to each other and heal themselves. When a year passed and nostalgia flied like snowflakes, these guests returned to Soyang-ri Kitchen-Book House at Christmas in their own way.

* Soyang-ri: It is located in Cheongna-myeon, Boryeong City, South Chungcheong Province . "Myeon" and "Ri" are Korean administrative units.

Author

Ji Hye Kim
Ji Hye Kim was born the second child in a family with many sisters. She is quick-witted and talkative.
Dreaming of becoming a sitcom producer, she went to study journalism and broadcasting, but gave up decisively after learning about the journalist exam.
Later, she worked at an IT company in strategic planning and marketing, but left the company in one summer during the COVID-19 pandemic. After that, she started writing novels little by little while working as a translator.
She became more in love with herself as she sat writing in a small cafe nearby.
She hopes that everyone who read "Soyang-ri Kitchen-Book House" will be as relaxed as returning from a trip and as refreshed as caressed by a breeze, just like the protagonist Eugene.
