With over a million copies sold in South Korea, this is a gripping and passionate death row love story for fans of Please Look After Mother, vividly told by a major Korean talent. Yu-Jung - beautiful, wealthy, bright - is lying in her hospital bed, recovering from her third suicide attempt, when she receives a visit that will change her life. Her no-nonsense aunt, a nun, appears by her side, and suggests Yu-Jung might accompany her on a charitable visit to death row. At her lowest ebb, Yu-Jung is resistant. But something compels her to go to the prison. There she meets Yun-Soo, a convicted murderer who will soon be put to death. And, though repulsed by his crimes, something about the depth of his suffering strikes a chord in her. Shaken by their encounter, she returns to visit him the next week. And the next... Through their weekly, hour-long meetings Yu-Jung and Yun-Soo slowly reveal to each other the dark secrets of their pasts, the hidden traumas that have shaped their lives. In doing so they form a deep, unbreakable bond, helping one another to overcome their demons. But Yun-Soo's hands are always in cuffs, the prison-officers are always in the back­ground, and they can never lose sight of the fact that their happy time together is tragically brief. Poetic and vividly told, Our Happy Time is a passionate and heart-breaking love story. It is also an important, hard-hitting and compassionate fable for our times - a story about crime, punishment, and forgiveness from a major Korean talent.… (más)

Jamais un manga ne m'a touché à ce point, ou ne m'a fait autant pleurer. C'est incroyable à quel point, jusqu'à la dernière page, on a envie de s'accrocher à un miracle qui ne peut pas arriver. Je le recommande à tous ceux qui ont le cœur suffisamment bien accroché pour le lire. ( )

Our Happy Time is a wonderful redemptive story, and from a very unusual angle and perspectives. While the author does a wonderful job of connecting the reader to the characters so that their transformations are all that more dramatic, I wish that I was able to feel more. It is very likely that there was something lost in the translation. ( )

This has been the year of delicate, perfect, death-row stories for me. Stories that gripped me and held tight, even when I was crying angry tears and railing against the injustice of it all. OUR HAPPY TIME by Gong Ji-young is the perfect knitting together of the stories of two people who could not be more different: Yujeung and Yunsu. My initial impression is that both of these characters were young, but as the story develops it is revealed that they are, in fact, adults. The rich development and emotional tension of this book depends on that age, so don't let initial impressions fool you.

De film Persona van Ingmar Bergman gaat over twee vrouwen die emotioneel elkaars spiegelbeeld zijn. Maar gaandeweg begin je je af te vragen of het niet over dezelfde vrouw gaat.

Het woord Persona is afkomstig uit de Griekse tragedie en symboliseert het masker dat de toneelspelers dragen. In navolging van Jung gebruikt Ji-Young het woord in haar boek om aan te geven dat er een verschil is tussen de daden van mensen - de reden waarom een rechter ze veroordeelt - en de mens achter het masker. Ook van slechte mensen zijn niet alle handelingen en gedachten slecht.

Het vereist moed en diepgang om een boek te schrijven over onderwerpen als schuld, boete, vergeving en verzoening. Ji-Young schrijft mooie en ontroerende dingen over deze onderwerpen en haar boek heeft diepgang. Het leest makkelijk en snel.

Een probleem is dat de karakters nogal vlak blijven. Het diepe schuldgevoel van Yun-su is niet goed te plaatsen bij zijn feitelijke onschuld aan het drama waarvoor hij ter dood is veroordeeld. Het valt niet mee om in de voetsporen te treden van een illustere voorganger als Dostojevsky. Yun-su is geen Raskalnikov en Yu-jeong lijkt niet op erg op Sonya.
