Summary
*THE HEARTWARMING KOREAN BESTSELLER*
*A new transaltion from Shanna Tan, translator of Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop*
Situated at the heart of a rapidly gentrifying district of Seoul, the Yeonnam-dong Smiley Laundromat is a place where the extraordinary stories of ordinary residents unfold.
It is already a haven of tranquility and reflection for locals, but when someone leaves a notebook behind, the laundromat becomes a place that brings people together. One by one, customers start jotting down candid diary entries, opening their hearts and inviting acts of kindness from neighbours who were once just faces in the crowd.
But there is more to the diary than first appears, and before long the laundromat's regulars are teaming up to solve a mystery and help the notebook's former owner find peace.
A heartwarming, healing debut that instantly captured the hearts of Korean readers, this is a novel about the preciousness of human relationships and the power of solidarity in a world that is increasingly cold, fast-paced and virtual.
Translated from the Korean by Shanna Tan

Poignant and honest.
I really appreciated the chapters The Umbrella in particular.
Some chapters can seem a little sappy and in other a little dramatic, but this story is told well!
