Hakuda Photo Studio by Taeyeon Heo

Discover Hakuda Photo Studio, a heartwarming novel by Taeyeon Heo, translated by Shanna Tan. Set against the tranquil backdrop of Jeju Island, this book invites readers into a story of self-discovery, new beginnings, and the healing power of community.

After feeling burnt out by city life in Seoul, the protagonist Jebi escapes to Jeju for a summer holiday. On the final day of her trip, an unexpected accident leaves her stranded without her phone, credit cards, or plane ticket. Wandering along the coastal road, Jebi stumbles upon a small, two-story photography studio perched on a cliff. Seeking help, she enters the Hakuda Photo Studio, unaware that this encounter will change her life.

Jebi accepts a job offer from the studio’s owner, Seokyeong. Together, they capture the lives and stories of the island’s residents—from a young couple facing wedding jitters, to an ex-cop haunted by his past, and a geologist making a rare discovery. Through these encounters, Jebi finds a sense of belonging and the chosen family she never had.

Praised for its gentle storytelling and evocative setting, Hakuda Photo Studio is perfect for readers who love novels about small-town life, personal growth, and the magic of unexpected connections.
