In the small village of Jeoji on Jeju Island, Doseon and Jinhee run their cherished bookstore. As true romantics who love books, they have made their passion their livelihood. Throughout their journey—dating, getting married, and living their daily lives—books have always been by their side. They pursued their dream of running a quiet bookstore in a place they wanted to live, and now they reside in Hangyeong-myeon area, enjoying heartwarming days with their neighbors and friends. By focusing solely on selling books and dedicating themselves to thoughtful book curation, Sorisomoon has become a beloved bookstore, admired not only by writers and publishers but also by potential readers who might not typically pick up a book. In 2023, their efforts gained international recognition when Sorisomoon was featured in <150 Bookstores You Must Visit Before You Die>, published by Belgium’s Lannoo Publishers, sparking interest among foreign visitors. As for a book they have published, Doseon and Jinhee are the authors of <Today Is Not the Last Day>.
