    My acquaintance with him began when he and three classmates rented a room in my house during high school, and I lived under the same roof as him. However, he was glib, womanizing, and extremely rude. He was cunning and manipulative, flirting with girls everywhere and writing love letters to different girls, which I found extremely repulsive and disgusting. Unexpectedly, he used his cunning to invite only me to accompany him to his military service, effectively positioning me as his girlfriend. Although I didn't agree to be with him, being labeled his girlfriend prevented his other friends who liked me from pursuing anything further out of loyalty to him. During this time, he maintained an ambiguous relationship with me, exchanging letters. Unexpectedly, a year later, when he went back to his hometown on leave to visit relatives, some of his friends, unable to bear seeing me being deceived by him while he was seeing several girls, warned me. In the end, our breakup wasn't a romantic one, because we never even started anything; we severed ties, not even becoming ordinary friends.

    The author based this novel on their own life, using their real diary entries. It's not a rural story, and the author didn't categorize it during the writing process; it's a coming-of-age, school-themed novel. The female protagonist lived in a family that favored sons over daughters. During junior high school, she suffered from severe depression due to unwarranted beatings and even abuse from her mother. However, limited by her social status, she couldn't escape the control of her family of origin, struggling for half her life in a quagmire of suffering. The novel depicts the youth, school life, and everyday moments of the 1990s, capturing the anxieties and struggles of growing up.
