Memories rising from the clouds of steam
A sip of the banana milk I was sipping in the bathhouse!

Do you remember the sweet taste of banana milk you drank in the bathhouse as a child? On a cold, windy winter day, you'd sit in a steaming hot bath, basking in the warmth until your body was numb, then scrub away the grime and leave your body and mind feeling refreshed and refreshed with a refreshing lather.
And finally, I gulped down a sip of banana milk! The "bathhouse" is a magical place, etched with childhood memories, that brings back a sense of nostalgia and a feeling of warmth just thinking about it.

《Banana Milk Bath》 is a picture book that brings back memories of that warm bathhouse.
Jeong-i, the main character of this book, goes to the bathhouse with her mother and older sister once a month.
But for Jeong-i, who is shy and timid, the bathhouse is still an unfamiliar and uncomfortable place.
Having to take off my clothes in front of strangers, the hot steam is stifling, and even the scrubbing is painful.
I can never understand adults who sit in a hot spring and say, "It's cool!"

What helps me endure that kind of affection is a sip of banana milk after a bath.
No matter how much you hate bathhouses, banana milk in a bathhouse is a hundred, a thousand times more delicious.
But on this day, Jeong-i experiences an unforgettable, magical moment at the bathhouse... What on earth happened?

A cozy fantasy where the bath water turns yellow
Dive into a sweet and fragrant banana milk bath!

Unlike Jeong-i, Jin-i, the playful and confident older sister, quickly took off her clothes and jumped into the cold water.
Jeong-i followed her sister's lead and tried dipping her toes in the cold water, but they were too cold, so she immediately took them out.
Then her older sister teased her and called her a 'coward'! Jeong-i got angry and got into a fight with her older sister and fell into the cold water.

As Jeong-i slowly opened her eyes, the water in the bath turned yellow and fragrant.
When they come up, the original bathhouse is nowhere to be found, transformed into a mysterious bathhouse overflowing with banana milk! There, Jeong-i and Jin-i meet the three monkey brothers, Ha-ha, Ho-ho, and Hi-hi, and decide to go on an adventure together.
You can climb on a bucket and cross the banana milk swamp, get splashed by the water under the banana milk waterfall as if you were practicing yoga, and even ride a bucket boat in the banana milk pool.


Doesn't the mere thought of splashing around in warm banana milk all day make you feel good? "Banana Milk Bath" invites young readers into a warm and cozy world of imagination.
On a winter day when you have to blow on your frozen hands, looking at the sight of a bathhouse with bright yellow banana milk flowing makes your heart melt.

'The Heart of a Brave Monkey!'
Jeong-i's adventure and growth story

Jeong-i, who was timid and shy, begins to gain courage and take steps forward little by little as she enters the banana milk bath.
Haha, heehee, hoho The three monkey brothers tell Jeong-i and Jin-i the legend about the 'bravest monkey'.
The story goes that a cowardly monkey became the best martial arts master and bravest monkey after completing three training sessions in a banana milk bath.
Jeong-i decides to train with the monkeys because she is told that she can become brave.
We cross the swamp where banana crocodiles live, we brace ourselves and persevere under the banana milk waterfall, and even if we come in last in the bucket boat race, we persevere until the very end and cross the finish line.

Before she knew it, Jeong-i gained confidence and a 'brave heart'.
Later, he steps forward and helps the monkeys clean their mess, and sits in the hot water and says, "It's cool!"
Unlike when she first entered the bathhouse hesitantly, she is now enjoying her time there more than anyone else, showing that Jeong-i has grown a lot through her time in the banana milk bathhouse.
