À propos de ce contenu audio

Two young women. Two unwanted pregnancies. Two different worlds.

Set against the backdrop of the 2002 World Cup and rising anti-American sentiment due to a deadly tank accident involving two young Korean girls, The Korean Word for Butterfly is told from three alternating points-of-view:

  • Billie, the young wanna-be poet looking for adventure with her boyfriend, who soon finds herself questioning her decision to travel so far from the comforts of American life.
  • Moon, the ex K-pop band manager who now works at the English school struggling to maintain his sobriety in hopes of getting his family back.
  • Yun-ji , a secretary at the school whose new feelings of resentment toward Americans may lead her to do something she never would have imagined possible.

The Korean Word for Butterfly is a story about the choices we make and why we make them. It is a story, ultimately, about the power of love and redemption.
