4.5⭐️

i LOVED this book. the story is based off of the authors’ grandparents and how they met/loved but thrown into fiction/fantasy!
Seung and Eunji are such strong characters in their own way and came from incredibly different lives so learning how they come together (and how it is written so) is amazing
the plot itself with a government trying to take over the entire place and having a rebel group and people are terrified to say no to anyone in power??? i hate it but i LOVE it
the ending chapter seemed to tie some things together so i get that an epilogue was a good idea, however, im not totally sure how i feel about it. are we getting a second book? do we get anymore of our favorite characters??

overall, definitely something i would recommend to people who enjoy books with fiction/light fantasy, injustice but overcoming it, mild friends-to-enemies-to-lovers, and Korean history.
