Book
A terminally ill old man returns to his hometown, Cherry Village, to live out the remaining days of his life. Kang Dae-su grapples with his childhood demons and feelings of bitterness about the past but, eventually, his ice-cold heart starts to melt as he reluctantly begins to interact with those around him. In Hwang's graceful, gentle prose, Kang's story unspools as he encounters the inhabitants of Cherry Village and begins to face his childhood demons.
