here is another part i highlighted that i found profound:
“Mom, do you even know what that character means?” “Of course!” Granny glared at Mom, then in a deep low voice, she said, “Love.” “What does love mean?” Mom asked mischievously. “To discover beauty.” After Granny wrote the top part of the character , then the middle part, (meaning “heart”), she said, “These three dots are us. This one’s mine, this one’s yours, this one’s his!”

Extra points goes out to the beautiful translation. While I know no Korean, it’s always obvious when the translator has done an excellent job at translating the flow of writing and the dialogue between characters. The original voice of Won-Pyung Sohn seems to flow effortlessly here. Almond is a big recommendation!
