I treat text like a mysterious treasure, cherishing it like a miser. It is in my heart, my mind, my blood and my soul. I always hear it forever calling to me, and I must answer it with gentle affection.
I touch it, feel it, read it, write it, and am entangled in it for 365 days a year.
Text is not part of my life. It is my life.
This book is not a character study. It is a love story.
—You Jin
