Two worlds collide in a changing Korea—and neither will ever see things the same way again.
In 1929 Korea, Arisa Jo is a wealthy merchant's daughter who embraces the modern world with glamorous Western fashion, bold opinions, and an independent spirit. Her life takes an unexpected turn when her father asks Jun Seomoon, a traditional young man from the countryside, to escort her through the bustling capital of Gyeongseong. As these two very different teenagers clash and grow closer, they begin to see their rapidly changing world—and each other—in a new light.
