I fell in love with the characters- Dong Ju and Sugiyama in more ways than expected. It’s the way they find love in ugliness, light in the darkness, and joy in pain through their love for books and poetry. Despite the differences in language, nationality, status, and life experiences, they are connected by the love for words. They both use poetry as a way to cope in a cold world where war and death linger.
