About This Novel

His last memory started at the train station. He woke up with only his pants and shirt on him. He never left the station again, and gradually he couldn't even remember his own name. Until one day, because he took back a stranger's wallet from a thief, he was dragged to work as a night shift clerk in his convenience store. This small store called "Always" suffers from a shortage of Always products and insufficient staff. Community residents complain that it is an "inconvenient convenience store." He turned from a homeless man to a worker by accident. Not only did he help a college clerk transform into an Internet celebrity in the convenience store industry, but he also helped the fake detective who monitored him to find a new job. Even the venomous aunt with a temper as bad as her mouth also let go of her guard in front of him... The secret weapon behind it is seemingly ordinary convenience store food--·Wrapped with worries. Triangular rice balls, lunch boxes of delicacies from the mountains and seas that can summon inspiration, corn silk tea that makes drunkards become more and more addicted, "Golden Triangle" set meal that can quickly recharge late-night workers... The convenience store is warm on a winter night, and every piece of food is steaming. A person stands on the edge of his own life, salvaging one falling soul after another, and taking in countless wandering hearts.

Life is like a sea, crossing people and crossing yourself

Everyone we meet is going through something and has personal sorrows. We must be kind to them, including ourselves. This book is about mutual healing, companionship, understanding, communication, love, and role exchange. It explores the causes of estrangement between people from another perspective and the corresponding solutions. There are people who understand, people who feel pain, and people who listen to what you say. Whether adults or children, they all need recognition and communication. Give someone a rose, leaving a lingering fragrance in your hands. Those who leave well will return well, those who love others will love to return, those who have gone have been blessed, and people have healed each other.

After reading the whole book, I felt that the rhythm was fast and slow. The story is good, the ideas are clear, and the expression is very mature, but the wording is a bit jerky. It is a difficult challenge to translate Korean literary works to fully adapt to our reading "taste". I would like to thank all those who have contributed to this effort and express my heartfelt gratitude and respect for your efforts.
