About the productJapanese

A best-seller in Korea with 40,000 copies sold! A full-length historical novel

We bring you a sophisticated translation of a full-length historical novel written by a female author, depicting the Korean independence movement and communist movement from the 1920s to the 1950s from women's perspective.
The film vividly portrays three women who spent their youth together in colonial Korea - Heo Jeong-sook, Joo Se-juk, and Go Myung-ja - and the men around them who have made their mark in history, including Park Hon-young, Yo Un-hyung, and Kim Il-sung.
Wartime Seoul, Pyongyang amid a storm of purges, and Moscow where her beloved daughter lives - this is the story of three women who share the history of the Korean Communist movement throughout their lives and reach their respective final destinations. It is an excellent work of literature, a new must-read for modern East Asian history, and feminism.
Commentary by Sato Masaru (author and former chief analyst at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs).

===Volume 1===
A black-and-white photograph brought from the Soviet Union shows three women chatting in a stream under the summer sunshine. The "new women" of colonial Korea - Heo Jeong-suk, Joo Se-juk, and Ko Myung-ja - dedicated their lives to the communist movement and lived through a turbulent era across the world.
A solid historical novel in which a female author vividly brings to life the incredible women buried in the history of the Korean Communist movement!
