Description 작품 소개

This book tells the life stories of four families who "luckily" moved into a government-subsidized "Dream Future Experimental Apartment" for young couples. The four women—Yo-jin, Dan-hee, Hyo-nae, Gyo-won—sacrifice and dedicate themselves to their families and children, but the inequality of obligations and labor becomes increasingly severe.

Can the four women in this apartment break free from the shackles of the "table" and find the life they want?
