Summary, Etc. "It's summer 2008, and Seoul is no place for a teenage girl. While the city gets devoured by new wealth and shimmering high-rises, our unnamed narrator is trapped and suffocating in her meager home. After years of enduring her alcoholic father's abuse and her mother's cowardice, she decides to leave. ... Her escape lands her at a cheap boarding-house for single women. There, she is pulled into the orbit of an older girl named Juju. Once a teen runaway hardened by years of getting by on her own, Juju's beauty and grit are irresistible. But when a global financial crisis reaches Korea, fears of a wider economic collapse bring the city to a standstill. ... As businesses close and winter sets in, our narrator must confront her deepening fear for Juju's future and her own uncertain path. Will she stay on the run or go back home to her heartbroken mother?"-- Inside dust jacket flap.
