Since when did the world become a place where people have to endure and persevere to survive?
_From the text

Through the eight novels contained in 『B's World』, we gradually begin to build a new outline of a world.
The eight works, which cross a diverse spectrum of time and space, including a galaxy train heading to Pluto's boarding school, a medieval-style hotel said to be haunted by ghosts, a rural area where marriages are openly performed, and a high school classroom where entrance exams are considered more important than anything else, each have a different perspective on the world.
The speaker of each work is sometimes B, sometimes A, or someone who does not belong to any of these structures.
As I follow the works, drawn in by the revealed truth and hidden essence of the incident, good and evil, and without being able to be certain of anything, my existing convictions soon crumble.
Even the previously clear boundaries are becoming blurred.
If anything becomes clear, it is that we have been B, are living as B, and can become B at any moment.
Because the 'world of B', made up of round, warm surfaces, faintly disappearing dots, and frighteningly sharp edges, is ultimately the reality we are currently living in.


One day, a cat suddenly jumped onto my lap,
I was very surprised and my heart was pounding.

It felt like I was embracing a warm and soft universe.

I received comfort in the shape of a cat.

I think I want to write a novel like that.

_From the author's note


Forgotten, erased, and painstakingly hidden,
Stories of those who are not called A

Readers of 『B's World』 will not be able to hold back their laughter at Choi Sang-hee's unique humor that strikes at unexpected moments.
When Yuna, who is like the nitrogen in a bag of chips or the radish salad on a plate of raw fish, rolls her eyes like a puffer fish (“Yuna’s Yuna”), or when the alien playing Go-Stop in the living room of Joo-woon’s house says “Okay, I’ll do it” with a shy face (“Visit”).
Then, you may find yourself nodding your head as you see yourself in the children who are moving forward into a world of undecided equations, each with a secret in their heart, yet unable to determine the answer.
However, there may be more times when we face uncomfortable feelings in front of the stark truth that the author shows us.
Yunho from "Red Finger" who was ostracized from the group because he had a red hand and created his own world; Ian from "Ghost Tour" who visits a ghost hotel alone with his father who has a rift after a fire; Joohee from "Bird" who can only watch the situation her mother is in because "her father bought her with money"; an Earth boy who observes "The Boy from Mars" on a galaxy train crossing a frozen world; three families from "Lost Lake" who cannot sleep comfortably for a single day in a house enveloped in the ferocity of men; Joo-woon from "B's World" who watches his friends fade away as a sexual harassment complaint is posted on the school homepage.


The sharpness of its gaze, which observes the world's cracks and contradictions, deeply exposes uncomfortable realities, but that sharpness is also the way in which "B's World" reassures us.
Facing reality squarely, without ignoring or covering it up, and thus revealing that the world of the Bs has always been here.
Because at its foundation there must be respect and love for all beings.
We cannot help but trust the author who captures the landscape of “compassion and love” (in “The Boy from Mars”) to depict a world where “compassion and love were considered useless and disappeared long ago.”
Thanks to this, I feel comforted and at ease, and I once again gain the strength to dream beyond this world.
