The child in the book is often scolded by his mother. He gets scolded for breaking a vase and lying, for not eating a balanced diet and for not being asleep by 9 o'clock. Every time, his mom threatens him by saying, "Here comes the bogeyman." Through images of children caught by the bogeyman becoming owls or getting locked in cages, as well as the attitudes and expressions of children, this book criticizes adults who use force to make their kids good and the right.
This book won Illustrator of the Year at the 2007 Bologna Children's Book Fair. The author, Park Yeoncheol, is in charge of both writing and illustrating this book.
