HAPPINESS IS ALWAYS A CHOICE
Youngah is a warm-hearted schoolteacher - always smiling, always yielding. She bends her life to everyone else's rules. But deep inside, this endless restraint is killing her. An unending sense of despair festers.
Desperate for relief, she turns to a cutting-edge, four-week emotion regulation programme, which promises to sculpt her into a better version of herself.
The procedure works a little too well.
Unburdened at last, Youngah embraces her raw, unfiltered self, dismantling the weight of the exhausting expectations and ideals imposed upon her.
WHO WOULD EVER CRAWL BACK WHEN FREEDOM FEELS THIS GOOD?
** Translated from the Korean by Slin Jung **
