Summary:

"Focusing on teenaged girld Ji-woo, Kang-i, and Yeo-wool, the novel depicts the aspects of life that continue through generations as grandmothers, mothers, and daughters, convey respect to the lives of ordinary neighbors who have survived the major twists and turns of Korean modern and contemporary history. It will be another representative work that seeks social interest in solidarity and caring while facing the problems of Korean society at this moment, such as the ever-growing gap between the rich and the poor, and the work environment of youths employed part-time who are at risk." -- Cataloger's translation and interpretation of the Korean synopsis

"10대 여성 청소년 지우, 강이, 여울이를 중심으로 할머니, 어머니, 딸로 세대를 거듭하며 이어지는 생의 면면을 그려, 한국 근현대사의 굵직한 굽이들을 살아 낸 평범한 이웃의 삶에 존경을 전한다. 나날이 극심해지는 빈부 격차, 위험에 내몰리는 비정규직 청년들의 노동 환경 등 지금 이 순간 한국 사회의 문제들을 정면으로 직시하며 연대와 돌봄에 대한 사회적 관심을 간구하는 또 하나의 대표작이 될 것이다."-- excerpt from various websites
