Book's Kitchen
Yujin used to be completely immersed in work for years after starting a company on her own. When she visits Soyang-ri by chance, as if by magic, she decides to shut down her life in Seoul and open a book café there. The Kitchen of Books in Soyang-ri becomes a place where people can get recommendations for good books just like good food, eat delicious food that complements their books, and leave with a sense of being healed. What kind of stories will the 9 customers of the Kitchen of Books tell? At a moment when they needed a break in their lives, they happen upon the café, take a new look at themselves through rest and conversation, and leave with a lighter heart than when they arrived. The Kitchen of Books is just this kind of a secret hideaway for moments when you are lost in life, when you want to open your heart and share it with someone
