Overview

This book is about a boy who became a special customer of mysterious home shopping company that sells weird items. A mysterious and beautiful story of growth and friendship!

Book Intro

Something unfamiliar happens in Dokggak county, where goblins are said to live! What the heck is this strange home shopping channel that appears on the old TV? 

Due to family situation, Chani gets to live in his grandfather's house in the country town of Dokggak. Away from busy city life of looking at smartphone and attending academy after school every day, it feels too quite and lonely. When the night comes early, there is nothing to do and nothing to play with, so he even wants to read books. School life is also boring, nothing to expect. Usually parents send kids to middle schools in a city. But Chani transferred to the school in a country... It may be natural for other kids to think of him as abandoned.

But Chani gets used to the country life. One night hearing the acorns falling on the roof, he happens to turn on an old, fat TV and watch a "Mysterious Home Shopping" channel. Two show hosts, with strange faces, shout "Magical ~ Mysterious ~ Home Shopping ~!" and whisper to him to buy products that seems to have magical powers.

A goblin hat turns you invisible, a leaf wallet turns leaves into money, the fox tail turns you into whoever you want. The items sold by the show hosts grabs Chani's heart and attention. They also represents Chani's desire and growth, living lonely in the country without mom and dad. The goblins just sell products and whisper to people's minds. Where and how to use them depends only on the mind of the user. During the period when the acorn season begins and ends, the story shows  through a beautiful narrative, the process of a child growing up to care about the heart of others instead of lingering on what he lacks.
