This is the amazing story of a camera that doubles the number of every subject.
- Book Intro
-
This book expertly deals with the theme of parent-child conflicts through a novel device called a magic camera. As the magic camera doubles the number of parents from two to four, the conflicts between them and their children become amplified.
Although 2X Magnifying Camera is full of unexpected twists and turns, it's not entirely a humorous book. Two mothers means twice the nagging, and four fathers means no room for any of the children in the house. The exponential growth in the number of parents magnifies every problem to be clearer than ever. Hyun-jung Sung, the author, links reality and fantasy to deliver a different and fantastic literary world. Although there are many stories about family in Korean literature, this is the most unique and realistic story yet.
