About This Novel
Ji Dong's father suffers from bone cancer, and facing sky-high medical expenses, should he be treated or not? As the eldest son and the only one in the family who lives in a big city, he has no shirking responsibility but is hesitant. The family is caught in a contradiction: treatment is the comfort of conscience and a reward for his father, while not treating it is due to practical considerations and financial constraints. As a father, he neither wants to drag down his children, nor does he want to give up his desire for life. The days have to move forward in difficulties... My father finally passed away. What he took away was not the contradiction but the deep sense of security and belonging as children.
