“I had to write the story hidden in my heart.
“The story behind it.” (From the author’s note)

The author's honest and groundbreaking message about the relationship between teenagers clearly touches on that 'it' that is buried deep in everyone's heart, just as light carves a pattern in the darkness.

“I’m going to tell you a story I’ve never told anyone before.
“A story that only you and I know.”
The Return of Lee Kkot-nim, the Ultimate Page-Turner in Youth Literature

The new work of author Lee Kkot, who has never disappointed her readers and who receives a passionate response from teenagers with every work she publishes, 『Of Course I Am You』, has been published.

From works that warmly touch the heart like “I’ll Cross the World to You” to problematic works that powerfully delve into the abyss of absurd daily life and relationships that clearly exist in the world of teenagers like “The Child Who Wants to Kill,” author Lee Kkot-nim has now come to us with another problematic work that sharply delves into “the feeling of liking someone.”

Intricate plot, chilling twists, and overwhelming immersion.
A dangerous story that will have you breathless and immersed in it.

A girl's white sneakers are found neatly placed in a reservoir in the middle of the night, and the boy who was with her goes missing...
Haerok, the boy who disappeared, and Haeju, the girl who doesn't want to be hurt anymore.
A surprising secret that is finally revealed after mounting questions and deepening suspicions.
Author Lee Kkot-nim's unique and elaborate plot takes readers on a breathless reading spree, rushing to the ending the moment they open the book.

I've heard countless stories at schools, libraries, and bookstores about teenagers who don't want to read any other books, but who finished Lee Kkot-nim's previous work, "The Child I Want to Kill."
The power of author Lee Kkotnim, who leads young people who have thrown away books back to books.
That power is none other than the power of the story itself.
"Of Course I Love You" is also a work that adds provocative questions and a chilling twist to a mysterious disappearance case that deceives readers until the very end. Readers who have read it first should keep in mind the "No Spoilers" warning.
This novel, which is as good as a psychological mystery, will make young readers who have finished the book go back to the beginning and turn the pages to find the foreshadowing of the ending.

“I had to write about the heart that loves someone and the story hidden within it.
“The story behind it.”
The author's sharp message about how teenagers relate to one another.

An ordinary meeting between an ordinary girl and boy in an ordinary classroom.
However, even in relationships that seem to be full of affection and where the two people seem to give their all, there is a deep, endless longing and obsession hidden underneath.
Those raw emotions intertwine with mysterious events and explode with tension.

Loneliness, longing, obsession, possessiveness, psychological manipulation, emotional violence… .
Why are some children's "loves" so fragile and bitter, unlike others? The author painfully shows how the distorted "real" love of a tilted world is transferred to the world of teenagers just beginning to express their feelings, causing them to scratch and wound each other's "first" loves.

How far can we go invading someone's life just because we like them? A mysterious plot and a dark romantic atmosphere, combined with the author's honest and unconventional message, gave birth to the controversial work, "Of Course I Love You."
Anyone will be drawn into this special story, which vividly touches something buried deep in the heart, just as light carves patterns into the darkness.
