Into the book
Suddenly, I saw a bookshelf behind him.
Because the lights were turned on only a limited amount of time, the inside was covered in deep darkness.
She had no idea what was inside.
Things like this usually stimulate people's imagination.
Yeonseo felt as if she was being watched by some formless things.
I got goosebumps.
The bookstore owner who was choosing the story then said.
“Let me tell you one of them.
A country that flourished and fell a long time ago, so long ago that no records remain.
“The one who lived there… … .”
The light on the table flickered faintly as if in response to his words.
“It is the story of a poor boy who had a dream that was out of his league.”
--- p.34
She packed her bags and headed straight to the bookstore entrance.
Yeonseo strongly refused the bookstore owner's offer to take her to the main road.
Whose fault is it all?
If you walk with someone who surprised you, your heart may not calm down any more.
In front of the bookstore entrance, Yeonseo bowed and greeted me.
As she turned her back, the bookstore owner standing at the door muttered to the air.
“Please take good care of me.” It was a request I didn’t know who I was asking.
Yeonseo didn't hear those words because she was only thinking about going home.
It was the moment when she was walking away from the bookstore at a brisk pace.
A voice called her from behind.
I looked back and saw a man leaning against the door, smiling playfully.
“Please come back again, sir.
“I will wait.”
--- p.106
Yeonseo stared blankly at the bookstore in the rain.
How long has that old thing been here?
Suddenly, this bookstore felt like a buoy in the sea.
I pictured a day when I would be alone, waiting for a guest who might or might not come, in this place where no one would come, amidst countless things drifting and shaking.
--- p.135
He opened the book.
There was a lot of writing everywhere.
I closed it again, and this time opened the front page.
It was a blank sheet of paper.
It was only after turning five more pages that the content came out.
There were only three letters that meant that it was too painful to write down.
Soon the letters turned to ink and melted away.
It flowed down the pages like honey, dripping down the pages.
The flowing ink gradually increased and soon poured out like a waterfall.
More than all the letters in the book melted away.
It overflowed endlessly and poured into the bookstore.
In an instant, Seoju was submerged from head to toe.
He closed his eyes in the thick ink.
It was hard to tell whether my body was sinking or rising.
It felt like it was either squeezing in like a swamp or floating like a feather.
I couldn't even tell if it was a dream or reality.
It was a familiar feeling to him.
He was immersed in the black sea and recalled the past.
There had been countless waves, but now only three letters remained.
--- p.172
“It is true that we have been waiting for our guests.
He just fell asleep because the wound was deep.
Even if I wanted to die, I couldn't.
Yes, I knew you would come back.
It seems like you've learned too much, but that's okay.
There are still stories I haven't been able to tell you.
This is the last of the things I have prepared.
What should I say, it’s not even written in the book… … .”
He spoke in a distant voice.
“A shabby story.”
--- p.225
It was clearly a choice for her happiness.
I didn't know I would get this result.
Why does fate not move according to human wishes?
He hesitated for a long time, even though he was holding the woman in his arms.
Her life was finite and his was eternal.
The two people lived in different times.
He wasn't sure he could be with a woman.
There was nothing to see.
If you are God.
If there is a god who manipulates human lives as he pleases, would he know our ending?
The man finally spoke, having finished his hesitation.
"Let's run away.
"I will get you out of this hell."
--- p.248
One day, one night, one road.
There is a bookstore you can reach when you lose your way.
There is unlimited time to rest.
There is no need to buy the book, and you can enjoy the bookstore owner's reading if you wish.
All you need to get in is a little determination and a bit of tiredness to relax.
That's all.
All you need is the courage to deal with the ever-changing attitude of the bookstore owner.
He tells terrible and gruesome stories in a very gentle voice.
Then they add things like feeling fear is proof that you are alive, which is either meant to provoke or appease you.
Sometimes he talks about God, and other times he talks about science, so it's hard to keep track.
It is best to just ignore it as a storyteller's prank.

Publisher's Review
A spin-off of the #1 audiobook bestseller from Millie's Library, "Fantasy Bookstore"!
The e-book "Fantasy Bookstore: I hope you have a sleepless night" immediately reached #1 in the overall bestseller list upon its release!
The audiobook "Fantasy Bookstore," which became a hot topic and immediately rose to the top of the bestseller list upon its publication in "Millie's Library," was turned into a novel and published as an e-book, and later as a paper book.
The publication of an audiobook as a novel is unprecedented. Rather than simply switching between media, it creates an organic connection of worldviews that takes into account the characteristics of each medium, creating the first reverse craze and marking a new era in the publishing market.
In response to requests from audiobook readers who say things like, “I want to read it as a book,” and “I’m waiting for a sequel,” we’ve added a narrative to the original “Fantasy Bookstore,” creating a fantastical yet warm story about a bookstore owner who tells strange stories and a customer who returns to the bookstore even after spending sleepless nights listening to those stories. This has been published as a completely new e-book.
As it ranked first in the overall bestseller list as an e-book and there was a flood of requests for a paper book, it was published as a paper book with unpublished episodes added.
The audiobook "Fantasy Bookstore," in the style of a cruel fairy tale, is clearly a chilling and terrifying story, but for some reason, readers' reviews have been explosive, saying that after listening to the entire book, their hearts are filled with sadness and lingering emotions.
Finally, through the novel, we can encounter a vague sense of longing amidst an inexplicable fear, and a poignant story between a bookstore owner and a customer.
Today too, the owner of 'Fantasy Bookstore' is waiting to tell you a story.
As always.
“You’re here.
“I was waiting.”
I have been watching over the bookstore for countless hours,
I've been missing someone for countless days.
One day, one night, one road.
There is a bookstore you can reach when you lose your way.
There is unlimited time to rest.
There is no need to buy the book, and you can enjoy the bookstore owner's reading if you wish.
All you need to get in is a little determination and a bit of tiredness to relax.
That's all.
The owner of this bookstore, whose opening and closing times are irregular, tells customers a clearly eerie story, but for some reason, his voice is tinged with sadness.
The bookstore owner, with his ghostly white and transparent skin, looks like he's about to radiate cold air, but he says he's waiting with a gentle smile and asks what story you want to hear.
He had been waiting and missing someone for countless hours, and since when did he start waiting for a guest in this place?
There are customers who want to hear a heartwarming story, but they keep coming to the bookstore even though they are listening to the sad and strange stories that the bookstore owner tells them without permission.
While hiking with a heavy heart, I followed the bookstore owner I met by chance to a fantasy bookstore with an old tree covered in moss.
It has a gloomy and strange atmosphere, but for some reason it comforts me, so I visit it on gloomy days.
The bookstore owner, with his warm smile and gentle speech, seems somehow familiar and makes me want to visit him.
I wonder if I like him. I'm confused about whether I want to hear his story or just see him.
