Dalasini is an aspiring writer from the United States. After being offered a chance to work in Korea, she takes the risk and moves there. Unfortunately, the publishing company was very cautious and when she refused to pretend to be a male writer, they wouldn't refund the small amount of savings she had given them.

Despite her misfortune, Dalasini is determined to move past this and try again. With no money or friends to call, she looks for a job to keep the small apartment given to her by the publishing company. She has to prove that being Black, and a woman, won't stop her work from selling.

During her first day of work, Dalasini meets someone who is able to make every day feel less like a struggle and more like life. They even understand her desire to write without a false identity and support her as she stands her ground in the situation.

Dalasini could be discovering more about herself when this individual steps into her life.
