Specification A midnight story that will leave you feeling enriched while you are reading and even after you have closed the book.

On a sleepless night, when you feel anxious, you call out to the moon outside your window, "Let's play," and a string with a star-shaped fishing hook slides by, and friends who can't sleep gather around one after another... This is the latest work by an up-and-coming Korean picture book author, selected for the 2020 international children's book catalog "White Ravens"!

I tried to portray the important feeling of trying to understand others without them having to say it in words.
All the "single people" in the world gather together and play to their heart's content.
I hope that this power helps you sleep soundly. --Kim Sang-geun
