Book Review: There Are No Bad People in the World

The rains are back. 

Summer has ended. 

But with climate change, where do you draw the line between the seasons? I retreat to books and reading to find a constant. I'm sharing a review of one of the books I read this summer.

“There Are No Bad People in the World” by Jae Woon-Hon, translated by Ma. Kristina Carla Rico and Kyung Min Bae (Apop, 2021).

📚 It’s a tender and thought provoking take on the little moments of everyday. The ordinary is elevated unto the divine. The simple joys make life worth living.
💜 There are big life changing questions being asked in each story rendered unassumingly and with care. The stories will comfort you and inspire you to be brave.
✨Therein lies the charm of the book.
🃏 Apparently, BTS member, Jhope read this book too and it is referenced in STOP, the 4th track in his new album, Jack in the Box. Like the book, Stop questions and reflects on the chaos and conflict wrapped around the world today. Like the book, it keeps hope afloat through lyrics that show the inherent goodness of people.
