did not expect to like this book so much , simply bc i knew nothing abt it . although “like” probably isn’t the wrong word , maybe i mean appreciate . incredibly complex in its sadness as it’s relatable to probably every woman on earth , it isn’t a tearful sadness but an angry frustrating sadness that the world still moves like this . it was also very intriguing as i knew little abt korean life , and this book v clearly goes through the generational impacts of feminism and treatment of women in korea to the present day </3
