Foreword
Hey guys, it's me again with another story. With the pandemic going on lately, I figured I could write something that is relevant in our time today, and that could also give hope to everyone. I sincerely thank Gumgumtara-san for encouraging me to push on with this. You should also check out author-nim's latest completed work, QUARANTINE. It's a great story and timely at this moment.
A little TMI. I was contemplating into which country I would set this in. It'd most probably be Korea, but then I also would like to convey how it is in my country, so I decided I should go with my home, Philippines, as its setting. I know it's kind of unusual since their names are in Korean and Japanese, but more than the name, I hope you would all pay attention to the story and its message. I will try my best to convey this story and the message very well!
As the chapters go by, I hope everyone is safe, doing well, and also, looking forward for better days ahead \(◕◡◕)/
