Hmmm... i really wonder about the moral of the story. It feels anti-disability, either in the way Yun "overcomes" his alexithymia or the way it is questioned if he ever had it. I also thought he would die, and the ending made me wonder if the book is actually made for younger audiences. Other than that, I enjoyed the pondering of human expectations from Yun's point of view.
