Book Information & Summary
Written and Illustrated by Seo Hyun
‘Horai Horai’, the rebellion of Horai who flew over to the universe after leaving a bowl of rice
Was there Horai at the beginning of the world?
Under a sizzling hot sun, there appeared a living creature who broke its own egg, which is Horai, who looks like a fried egg. Horai quietly finds his own place and goes up to a bowl of rice. However, just a while later Horai decides to leave the bowl because he does not want to stay in the bowl. Where is he going? In the end, he returns back to his own Horai planet he used to live by self-declaring proudly after finishing questioning himself, ‘Why am I so white and yellow?’, and ‘Why am I so weak which is about to pop out soon?’
In the book of ‘Horai, Horai’, the writer impertinently imagines that there was Horai at the beginning of this world. Horai who opened the beginning of the world as an immature and not yet completed living creature, is commonly eaten by people. Look at this small and weak creature flying over to the universe and what he does to things who eat him. In this part, we can feel how creative the writer is and rebellious to this world. Only with the flow of images with little writings, this cheerful rebellion by Horai in the universe is the very essential part of this picture book.
This book, ‘Horai Horai’, makes us even more expect the next move of the writer who expands the field of picture books.
