This story follows two friends who meet on a dark street at night to keep a promise they made twenty years earlier. But time changes people, and the choices they make lead them down different paths. Their reunion is both welcome and bittersweet, and though brief, it raises profound questions about human nature, responsibility, and the meaning of justice.

This book includes both the Korean translation and the original English text, so you can compare the two as you read. The Korean is easy to understand, and the English lets you feel the original style and nuance. As you read, your vocabulary and reading skills will naturally grow.
