Features: This book is hailed as the "Love Story" of contemporary Korea, making a huge impact on both the Korean film and literary scenes. In just two months, it reached over 2 million viewers (5% of South Korea's population) and sold more than 200,000 copies. The story is based on a true account. Zhao Huanyou, a 27-year-old forestry researcher, met Li Qingren, a PhD in linguistics, on a small spring platform. Their kindness, sincerity, and simplicity deeply attracted each other. Their love story is like a clear, pure stream, untainted and pristine. Shortly after their marriage, Zhao Huanyou suddenly fell ill with a terminal disease and passed away. Just as Qingren was heartbroken, she received letters from her husband, sent from heaven, filled with heartfelt support and deep affection. This book does not rely on a plot to captivate readers but instead moves them with its delicate and sincere emotions, touching hearts and bringing tears.
