Description

The child is the same age as the dog.
They were born in the same year, and both were one year old (Korean age) from the moment they opened their eyes to the world. Trembling through the four seasons, listening to each other in a language that others cannot understand, playing together, falling asleep together, guarding each other when they are sick...They accompany each other as they grow up.

Nine years old, ten years old, eleven years old... Nowadays, the child has more time to look at their phones, look in the mirror, do homework and study at their desks, and sigh. However, for the dog, the child is still its peer.

Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen...the ages grow older, how long can the child and dog stay together? The Same Age presents the meaning of time with symbolic numbers such as "one year old" and "two years old" and opens the way to a heated discussion on the meaning of living together and family. For this reason, Kim Ji-eun, who is a critic, said of this book, "The greatest strength of the book is its solid narrative, which does not require many words to be understood”.
