Ji Seok had to read the book, titled ‘Moby Dick’, which was the gift from Sae Bom as soon as possible, because only then, he could spend the time together with Sae Bom until she transferred to the school in Je-ju island. Sae Bom had to personally go through hard time because the date of her mother’s funeral fell on the same day when the tragedy of Ship Se-Wol happened. And she felt attached to her own life after accidentally reading the book, ‘Moby Dick’, at school where she went back after four years. Sae Bom had mental illness related to death for a long time while the death of her mother and the death of society overlapped together. She felt something from her homeroom teacher that the life-changing event, which changed our whole life all of sudden like the tragic event of Ship Se-Wol, could be told as ‘transfer’. Since nothing could go back to the past before ‘transfer’ event, she had to realize the change and leave for the right direction. To do so, she had to remember well.

This innocent and beautiful love story between a girl and a boy connected with a book is far fresher and more sensational than any other love stories. In this book, there are more stories other than ‘Moby Dick’ as well. These other stories also make readers feel that they experience how the act of ‘reading’ itself have impact on real life of readers, and they are also read as a perfect manual book on ‘Moby Dick’. However, this book well shows us how we should act and think of while living with many different species in the earth through their true and genuine love provoking such a great change in both of their life.
