KMH – Chapter 4
“If you were me, wouldn’t you feel wronged?” Each time his bright white sneakers thud-thud struck, chunks of grass and dirt tore up and flew. Jugyeong, who’d been pressing a hand lightly to her chest, paused and glanced at Seju. The instant their eyes met, Seju demanded—almost sneering. “You don’t even know me.” “…….” “Then why don’t you like me?” At some point, Seju was breathing hard, and the back of his neck had turned a little red. Even so, his gaze was…-

KMH – Chapter 3
It was around the time the screaming tantrum had started to die down. The boy came tumbling down the stairs as if he were flying, like a swarm of bees. Then he abruptly shoved his face right up close. The force of it made Jugyeong flinch, and she was just about to shuffle backward— When Seju snapped, almost as if firing the words at her. “I know you.” Jugyeong did too. She’d just heard about Seju from Professor Im. Jugyeong’s fingers fidgeted as she replied slowly. “…Yeah.…-

KMH – Chapter 2
…Is this guy insane? “Ah.” Jugyeong closed her eyes, swallowing an irritated groan. Right now, she needed to rein in the impulse flaring up inside her. She desperately wanted to ask whether he was drunk—or genuinely out of his mind. Her hand rummaged through her handbag for a stress ball out of habit, then froze. ‘What if the counselor’s advice was just a metaphor?’ Jugyeong knew how stress balls worked. She’d looked it up herself before buying one. Repeating the motion of…-

ATTEW – Chapter 4
“A mother who looks like that—no wonder you’re a mess too.” “…….” “You little rat bastard. You—don’t ever come to our shop again!” “…….” “Got it?” “…….” “I said, got it?” “…….” “Ah, seriously!” After snapping that, she turned and went back into the shop. A moment later, she came out again and hurled a loaf of bread—about the size of a child’s fist—hard at Eunho’s feet. It was spite, and it was pity. Eunho…-

ATTEW – Chapter 3
The only place Eunho had to go when kicked out of the single room was the shop, so every time, she guarded it alone. She took ten thousand won from the men going in to fuck her mother and sold them two condoms, then slipped the money into the cash tin beneath the counter. That compartment was only for ten-thousand-won bills. Listening to her mother’s nasal, breath-muddled moans, the men’s curses and ragged breathing, Eunho read whatever magazines or newspapers they left behind. When a man finished…-

ATTEW – Chapter 2
“Living as a woman won’t bring you anything good. Even if your face is half-decent, all it does is draw bugs.” “I know.” “What do you know? You’re tiny.” “I’ve heard that enough times to know.” Nine-year-old Eunho looked down with indifferent eyes at the light brown hair falling in clumps around her feet. Her hair had only grown to about the length of a single finger joint. It was the weekend. Hwajin had slept in late and woke up complaining about the cold. Startled by…-

ATTEW – Chapter 1
“A foul-tempered girl. A stubborn, vicious bitch." Those were words Eunho had heard so often since she was nine that her ears had grown calloused to them. Before that, she’d been called a rat bastard, a piss-ant little shit. The nicknames fit Eunho well back then—head shaved down to the scalp, darting through filthy alleyways at top speed. To survive, you had to be quick to read the room. To protect your body, your presence had to be fierce. How many years had she lived like that? So…-

TSOTI – Chapter 1.4
“No….” “Then?” “I’ve never done it. Not even once.” At Doyoung’s words, Seungbin reacted far more strongly than expected. “W–what…? Really?” Not only Seungbin, but even Seungwoo, seated across from them, looked at Doyoung with a somewhat surprised expression. “No way. Hyung, you look like you’d be insanely popular.” “That can’t be true. Me? Popular…” “What are you talking about? You’re this pretty.” ‘Pretty…?’ Doyoung wondered if he was hearing…-

TSOTI – Chapter 1.3
Late at night. Doyoung was alone in the bathroom. It was his second day on the island. He’d spent the day so idly that it was almost embarrassing to claim he’d done anything at all. Aside from having lunch and taking a short walk, he’d stayed cooped up in his room. Since the school retreat back in high school, he hadn’t taken anything that could be called a proper trip, and he didn’t really know what one was supposed to do on a vacation. He’d drifted through the hours until evening, then…-

KMH – Chapter 1
Ha Jugyeong—twenty-nine, a patent attorney who had always been everyone’s first love. She calmly sensed that today’s matchmaking, too, would end up a wash. After finishing a private viewing at a personal gallery near Dosan Park with her blind date, they moved on to a café. The coffee she’d ordered there had already gone cold. “These days, even dishwashing gets done by machines, don’t you think? Compared to the era our mothers lived in, women today really do have it easy.” Kwon…-
