After the passing of her mother, Aram leaves behind her job as a social worker, and the weight of her past in Seoul - to seek meaning in the unfamiliar streets of Beijing. There, she meets Siyu: a quiet, kind-hearted rickshaw driver with a past he rarely speaks of.
Their encounters are brief, their words few - but in each silent moment, something gentle begins to grow. As Aram finds solace in the new rhythm of her life and the challenges it brings, Siyu begins to reclaim a long-abandoned part of himself through a cross-continental journey.
Set against the backdrop of a city steeped in history, culture, and quiet beauty, this novel is a soft, luminous tale of grief, healing, and a love that arrives not with thunder, but in stillness.
For readers who believe that even the most delicate connection can change a life - and that sometimes, the most meaningful journeys begin with loss.
