(English) To Us, Who Live as Women
Here, there are two very different women like a "Camel” and a “Penguin." One woman is honest and cool. The other woman thinks that she has a lot of pretense about what she says and does externally.
However, these two women are fun and interesting to each other. They start writing an “exchange diary” like young girls with a friendship no one else could invade. The two women who exchanged diaries that recorded everything they saw, felt, and experienced in their lives as female adults, were Yozoh and Lim Kyung-sun.
Lim Kyung-sun, is a vetran “author.” She began living as a writer since 2005, and she has published her 20th book including a revised version. And Yozoh, is a woman who connects stories and herself in many ways, ranging from musicians, writers, host of book podcasts, and owner of bookstore “All-Right”.
How did these two women’s secret stories end up in a book beyond the fence of chatter? What made them continue recording their own chats about ‘living as a woman, laughing and crying and laughing again after crying?’
The book started out from a project on Naver Audio Clip called the “EXCHANGE DIARY BETWEEN LIM AND YOZHO,” which two writers exchanged and shared their recording diaries. Recently in Korean publishing industry, audio-book production and distribution are becoming increasingly more active, but the two authors boldly chose to produce audio contents first and then publishing it as a book.
With Lim’s low and hard voice and Yozoh's slow and soft voice, they created a dialogue of friendship and sympathy, which gathered many positive responses from women who actively listened to them, even though they didn’t have time to read a page during their busy lives.
While the two authors released the series of exchange diary on the Naver Audio Clip, audiences repeatedly asked them to upload a script. There were many good phrases used and it was difficult for listeners to write them all down. Six long texts were added to the 30 recorded files, which finally became a book.
From work to love, life, menstruation, sex, travel, money, freedom and the daily pains and battles they had to endure to get all of these, their writing as women without boundaries finally released to the world.(Vietnamese) Gửi tới chúng ta, những người đang sống là phụ nữ
Cuốn sách này bắt đầu từ một dự án trong đó tác giả Yo Jo và Lim Kyung Sun đã ghi lại nhật ký trao đổi với nhau trên audio club của Naver với tựa đề "Nhật ký trao đổi của Yo Jo và Lim Kyung Sun". Điều gì đã khiến hai người họ liên tục nói về chuyện 'sống như một người phụ nữ' trong một thời gian thật dài, cười rồi lại khóc, khóc rồi lại cười ồ lên như vậy.
