Description 작품 소개

This novel by Chung Serang was published in 2016 and won the Hankook Ilbo Literary Award in 2017. It was originally serialized in a blog run by Changbi Publishers from January to May 2016. Following fifty different characters whose lives are in some way centered around a metropolitan university hospital, the novel demonstrates that the pain and suffering one experiences is not only one’s own. The names of the fifty characters were used as titles for the book’s chapters.
