Yeah, I did like most of the characters actually.

I particularly liked, oh, he's liked the right word.

I enjoyed it when Ara lost her banana and bashed up this woman at work after everyone else had gone.

I just thought, wow, okay.

Yeah, that was quite shocking, wasn't it?

But you can sure, you know, use your street skills and that gives us a glimpse into what her childhood was like.

Yeah, she's an interesting character and she's got this incredible natural beauty through her hair.

So she doesn't need any fixing up if I've got the right character.

This is part of what I'm saying.

Like I just couldn't quite keep a track of

of the attributes of each of these women.

But I think what makes her interesting is her relationship with yet another woman whose name is Ruby, who was the real true artist, the one who had transcended her wealth and her position to be truly one of life's aesthetic gods.

She just could, everything that you see through her eyes is reborn.

And

and Miho worshipped her until her death, and that I thought was one of the interesting parts, particularly interesting parts of the novel.

There's a lot in it.

I mean, there's the lives of each of these women and their backgrounds, but then we're also learning about, you know, Korean culture, Korean history.

Yeah, no, I really liked it too.

But I think some of the characters just shouldn't have been there.

Like, I'm going to say it, Wanda.
