“When we feel like crying, we should let it all out. Forcing them back only makes the wounds heal slower.”
Hwang Bo-Reum, Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop

Baek Se-hee
“Being imperfect is all right and being awkward is okay. You don’t have to cheer up. I can do well today, or not. It’ll be an experience either way. And that’s fine.”
Baek Se-hee, I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki

Hwang Bo-Reum
“I wanted to write a novel evoking the mood of Kamome Diner and Little Forest. A space we can escape to, a refuge from the intensity of daily life where we can’t even pause to take a breather. A space to shelter us from the harsh criticisms whipping us to do more, to go faster. A space to snuggle comfortably for a day. A day without something siphoning our energy, a day to replenish what’s lost. A day we begin with anticipation and end with satisfaction. A day where we grow, and from growth sprouts hope. A day spent having meaningful conversations with good people. Most importantly, a day where we feel good, and our heart beats strongly. I wanted to write about such a day, and the people within it.”
Hwang Bo-reum, Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop

Hwang Bo-Reum
“Back then, I told myself not to jump to conclusions to figure out what things mean. I decided not to think too deeply about life. Instead, I spent time eating well, watching movies, doing yoga and making coffee. I started to have an interest in other things besides myself and when I turned back to reflect, I realised that my life wasn't a failure after all”
Hwang Bo-reum, Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop

Hwang Bo-Reum
“Books are not meant to remain in your mind, but in your heart. Maybe they exist in your mind too, but as something more than memories. At a crossroads in life, a forgotten sentence or a story from years ago can come back to offer an invisible hand and guide you to a decision. Personally, I feel like the books I've read led me to make the choices I've made in life. While I may not remember all the details, the stories continue to exert a quiet influence on me.”
Hwang Bo-reum, Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop
