Stepping into the pages of ‘The Tale of Goldiluck, the Black Kitten’ transported me to a rich tapestry where fantasy weaves through historical motifs with seamless elegance. Gongsam captures an era infused not merely by text but layered within vibrant illustrations that evoke nostalgia and curiosity alike. The interactions between Geum Bok—the whimsically transformative feline—and Ui-Gyun create dynamic chemistry grounded in both enchantment and emotional resonance. Each panel unfolds delicately like a flower blooming at dawn; thus, my heart swayed amid melodies captured on parchment from eras long gone.
Han So-Young from Busan, South Korea –
As I first skimmed through ‘The Tale of Goldiluck, the Black Kitten’, skepticism bubbled within me. A story rooted in Korea’s Joseon Dynasty featuring a lonely scholar and an unusual cat hybrid seemed like just another predictable tale recycled for modern audiences. Yet, by the final pages, my doubts crumbled like fragile hanbok fabric under too much strain. The rich layers of metaphor unveiled kinship between two souls lost in their worlds—the elegance of both vulnerability and resilience strikes profoundly! Geum Bok’s enchanting transformation is not mere gimmickry; it symbolizes inner growth forged from kindness—so necessary in this often grim age. Simply delightful yet soul-stirring!

La narrazione incanta con un tono nostalgico, rievocando la fragilità e la gentilezza in un’epoca segnata dalla superstizione. Illustrazioni di grande impatto che danno vita a emozioni profonde.

A heartwarming tale that combines history with the endearing relationship between a cat and scholar. The illustrations are beautifully done, capturing every emotion.
