Spanning 60 years, four generations of ordinary families on the Korean Peninsula struggled to move forward in the torrent of history. From the fishing villages in South Korea during the Japanese colonial period in 1920, to Osaka, Japan, through World War II and the Korean War, to Yokohama, Tokyo and even New York in the Japanese bubble economy era in the late 1990s. Against such a complex historical background, the book focuses on describing the relationships and conflicts between generations on a series of issues such as family and hometown, integration and belonging, money and faith. The heroine, as the daughter of an illiterate boat owner from a small fishing village, tried her best to survive with her family in an era that she could not understand. There are many characters and plots, countless stories unique to the era, the tragedies of the fate of small people in the great era, and a grand epic of 300,000 words.

It is very difficult to live in a very complicated history, and you have to be on tenterhooks every day just to survive. Even if life is difficult, you still have to persevere tenaciously in order to get better.
In such a big era, the lives of little people seem insignificant, but every little person is working hard to survive. Even if the conditions are difficult and the world is difficult, they are like weeds, growing and growing.

Why doesn't the context pick up? What's going on? The page numbers are correct.
The book introduces and describes the lives of several generations of people under the background of that time for decades, showing the dark side and the real side of the society at that time in front of us, so that we can better understand the society at that time.
I feel so uncomfortable, I really can't calm down...
The TV series was not very good, I don't know how the original novel is...
