Overview

Tracing the life of the one who turned his life upside down.

Book Intro

One day, a novelist who has not written a novel for seven years stumbles upon an interesting advertisement in the newspaper. A portion of a novel is printed on the front page next to the phrase Searching for the author. After reading a few passages, the novelist is dumbfounded. The piece in the newspaper had been submitted anonymously to a literary contest by the novelist long before his debut, and he had all but forgotten about his work.

The novelist contacts the newspaper and asks that they no longer carry the ad, and he receives an unexpected call soon after. The call comes from a woman named Jin, searching for her husband who went missing six months prior. Jin explains that her husband pretended to be the writer of the novel in the ad. But that was not his only lie: Jin's husband was in fact a woman and lived a life of lies before meeting her. Lee Yu-mi, the person in question, worked as an editor at a university where she failed to be admitted. Never having set foot in a music college, she served as a professor at the piano department, and she even practiced medicine without a license. The novelist becomes increasingly fascinated with the life of Lee and tries to track her down in hopes of writing a novel again using Lee as a sort of muse.
