Manila Express
Description
On a solitary, fortuitous Busan night, Myungsoo finds himself the owner of a small, red journal belonging to a displaced Korean teenager, Gyu. In the midst of Metro Manila’s garishly mechanical glare, eighteen-year-old Kim Sunggyu narrates his tale through the pages written in ten-peso ballpoint ink and Myungsoo rediscovers his life by discovering a life that is both inspirational and tragic.
Foreword
Hi! So, this is the beginning of a chaptered work called "Manila Express". It is heavily inspired by Japanese pop literature and personal experience and I hope that both you and I will have an interesting time reading through this together. It's a story about chances, about life, friendship, the ties that bind us to the people around us, and to the unknowable future and the fear that it brings.
This is the beginning, and I hope I'll see you at the end.
