Description 작품 소개

"From the Gaze" topped the comprehensive bestseller lists at major Korean bookstores. The work brought a hopeful vision of a matriarchal society through the character Shim Shi-seon and created a fresh breeze in literary circles.

The protagonist is Mrs. Shim Shi-seon. After the Korean War, she went to Hawaii to get married through a matchmaker. There, she met a French painter named Matthias Mauer who tormented her. She escaped with Joseph Lee and eventually became a famous artist in Korea.

Later, on her birthday, Mrs. Shim Shi-seon had lunch with her children and passed away at dawn the next day. In the tenth year, her family members go to Hawaii for a unique memorial where each person brings a special item to grandmother's memorial table.
