Three Korean women in 1918 make a life-changing journey to Hawaii, where they will marry, having seen only photographs of their intended husbands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDifferent fates await each of these women. Hong-ju, who dreams of a marriage of 'natural love', meets a man who looks twenty years older than his photograph; Song-hwa, who wants to escape from her life of ridicule as the granddaughter of a shaman, meets a lazy drunkard. And then there's Willow, whose 26-year-old groom, Taewan, looks just like his image ...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReal life doesn't always resemble a picture, but there's no going back. And while things don't turn out quite as they'd hoped, even for Willow, they do find something that makes their journey worthwhile — each other.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Scribe Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48224836518123,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":47.57,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781913348861-1.jpg?v=1781710631","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9781913348861","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
