It's a fast read about a portion of South Korean history of the democracy movement. Although it does not provide a lot of details, it shares a good summary through a fictional story. The briefness and cartoon format allowed me to learn about very violent and painful events without being too triggered. I would recommend this book to anyone who believes in the power of books and the power of collective movement.
