Publisher Reviews

Today too, Dongdong is playing marbles in a corner of the playground, hoping that his friends will talk to him first. However, the friends do not seem to be interested in marbles or Dongdong. He says, ‘It’s not bad to play alone,’ and he tries to pretend to be calm, but there is a limit to holding out.
Somewhat shy, Dong-dong sneaks away with the excuse that he needs a new bead. Then he stops by the local stationery store and buys a bag of candy. At first, he thought it was marble and picked it up, but fell for his grandfather, who was a very sweet owner.
But this is no ordinary candy. Among the candies of various sizes, shapes, and colors, there was a pattern that caught my eye, and I immediately put it in my mouth... You hear a strange voice. "dong… Dong Dong... Dong Dong... Dong Dong-ah... here it is... here… .” The old sofa is the owner of the voice calling Dong-dong anxiously. On the sofa, I complain that the remote control is stuck in my side and it hurts and that it is difficult to breathe when my dad farts sitting on top of me.
The egg candy then tells the story of the old dog Seulgi, who is being dragged around by Dongdong's hand all day, the father's innermost heart, who constantly nags at Dongdong whenever he makes eye contact, and the happy regards of his grandmother, whom he misses so much but cannot meet. After learning about his heart that he had never thought of even in his dreams, Dongdong now has a clear piece of candy left in his hand. Whose heart will this candy tell Dongdongi?


"love you!" "I miss you." “Do you want to play with me?”
Magical candy that gives you the courage to say the easiest and most difficult words in the world!
Dongdong is a child who is not good at expressing his feelings or understanding the feelings of others. Considering that Gong Cha has three friends, he doesn't seem to refuse to ask to join first, but he doesn't say that until the end. Then, the friends criticize, not criticize, such as saying that they don't know how fun marbles are and that they only play among themselves. In the eyes of his friends, Dongdong will look like a kid who has no interest in soccer, but he can't even guess what those friends are looking at, so it's frustrating.
Friends came to Dongdong’s mind first and said, “Hey, what is that? sounds fun! Join us too.” There is only a scenario that says, “Please include me too.” There is no scenario to say. Maybe it's because of shyness, but it's also because they don't know how to understand the other person's position.
Egg candy tells Dongdong the 'heart' of other beings. The uncomfortable situation on the sofa, the difficult situation of Gu-gi, Dad's sincerity, Grandma's regards... After listening to the various voices of the heart, Dongdongi finally understands the hearts of others, even a little bit. It's like seeing a friend who appeared like a new season at the place where a season left after a splendid greeting, saying a word that he hadn't been able to say to anyone.
I hope that <Roll Candy> will bring the same magic that happened to Dongdongi to countless children who are probably not much different from Dongdongi. The magic of empathy, the magic of courage, the magic of growth.

P.S. In this book, two people who appeared in the author's previous works appear as cameos. Among them, the stationery owner's grandfather may have known about Dong-dong's situation and suggested magic egg candy. Even if you were at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, you had a face that would suit you very well. Guessing who the other cameos are should be left for the reader's pleasure.

Measuring Your Body

Find our detailed how to measure inseam and how to measure waist size here.

  • Waist: Place the tape measure around the narrowest part of your waist, usually around your belly button or a little above it, and measure the waist circumference in inches or centimeters.
  • First Hip/Low Waist: Locate the point between your hip and your waist and place the tape measure around it.
  • Hips/Second Hip: Following the guide for chest measurement, make sure the tape measure is wrapped around the widest area of your hip. No need to add room for movement if you are trying to buy stretchable jeans with a close or slim fit.
  • Chest: Stand straight, with arms relaxed on your side, ask any adult at home to help you wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of your chest area. Allow a little room for movement, maximum of 1 inch. If you are buying a jacket, use this measurement and add a few inches depending on how loose you want the jacket to fit you.
  • Height: Measure from your head to toe without any footwear on. You can use a door frame as a measuring point, stand up straight against it and make sure to properly mark the highest point of your head.
  • Arm length: Measure your arm length from the shoulder to the hand wrist. Don’t forget to stretch your arm.

That looks easy, doesn’t it? But that’s only the beginning. Women’s sizes are far more diverse than that for men and children. Those whose measurements are not included in a typical standard guide will need to wear apparel that fit better in sections labeled as petite, curvy, and tall, depending on their body type. There are also plus sizes and maternity sizes, and as if that’s not enough, there is also “vanity sizing”, which can really confuse consumers.

What is Vanity Sizing?

Technically referred to as a size inflation, vanity sizes are a common trend in fashion where a size number increases its corresponding measurement, often in an attempt to make buyers feel skinnier than what they would normally be. If anything, this also shows how clothing sizes have changed through the years. To avoid being confused by this trend, keep in mind the following tips, especially if you are buying online:

  • Always check the online store’s size guide
  • Read product reviews, comments, and ratings
  • Make sure to read all product information and details
  • Talk to the seller if possible

Are there clothing sizes based on height and weight?

As you would have guessed by now, this would be impossible because of the high diversity of women’s sizes when it comes to dimensions. To put it simply, a specific weight can come in different heights and body types, making it complicated, and even if you manage to match a height and weight, the body measurements can be entirely different from one person to another. If you want to ensure proper fit, always go by your specific body measurements.

Can we really rely on clothing sizes?

Doesn’t that outfit look perfect on the mannequin? But wait, you try it on yourself, and you only get disappointed! Any woman can definitely relate to this shopping experience. Now imagine shopping online, where the challenge in finding that perfect fit is doubled since one can only rely on photos and online information before deciding on a purchase. Another factor to consider is that online shops vary in sizes depending on their location, with many stores even using their own measurements that go beyond the usual “Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large” sizes, which is why consumers must be very careful when it comes to buying clothes.

Those on the extreme sides of the standard measurements will often find themselves questioning possibly every guide available out there. Published sizes can be really confusing, especially if you are looking at a size guide that you are not familiar with, so it will always help to keep your updated sizes handy and compare it against the chart you are looking at. Keep in mind that you should also adjust your body measurements depending on the type of fit you want. While we may all have an idea how clothing sizes are determined, it will still pay to be extra meticulous if you want to reduce or eliminate the chances of having to return that item you purchased online.

Dressing for Your Body Type

  • Tall – if you stand 5’8” or above, you are most likely to find a good fit in the “Tall Section” especially if you are buying bottoms like jeans, trousers, and skirts.
  • Petite – for heights 5’3” and below, the “Petite Section” is a good place to shop from whether you are buying dresses or tops and bottoms.
  • Curvy – the “Curvy Section” ideally caters to women whose waist measurements are at least 7 inches smaller than their chest measurements, and hip measurement that are 10 inches greater than their waistline.
  • Plus Size – this term may vary per country, but in general, this refers to those above the sizes 10 and XL, although some brands often use the term “curvy” as well to avoid sounding offensive. Not all brands carry plus sizes, so if you fall on the larger size of the chart, keep an eye on brands that offer plus sizes.

To help you find that perfect fit whether buying online or not, you can refer to the guides below, created for each clothing type, just convert as needed from the standard table above. For dresses, sweaters, and suits, you can use the table above as well.

Tips to find the right clothing size

Tip 1: Measurements
It is best to take the trouble to measure your body measurements with a tape measure. It is decisive: Chest, waist and hips including buttocks. The neck circumference is still interesting for men. Write down your values and put the note in your wallet for your next purchase. Most sellers should be able to do this and advise you accordingly.

Tip 2: Manufacturer tables
When shopping online, it turned out that many manufacturers and brands have their own measurements. The corresponding tables are often offered in the online shops to click on. Use them to make sure! If you are shopping in a store of the same brand, printing this table can be helpful.

Tip 3: Read ratings
Also, often useful: the comments and ratings of other online shoppers on a garment. Many people state in their ratings whether the garment has fitted as expected, or whether they recommend a number smaller or larger to others. You can also often find references to quality and material in the evaluations.

Tip 4: Your figure type
In addition to body dimensions, the figure type is also relevant: Some have narrow shoulders, others have a slender waist and the next one has a wider pelvis. Look out for brands or cuts that cater to your figure type.

Figure types

Figure type H: Upper and lower body are the same width or narrow, barely waist
With this type of figure, you should take care to emphasize your femininity and create unavailable curves visually through clothing. For example, with highly waisted, flared skirts or waist belt. Statement chains and generally jewelry can also help.

Figure type V: Wider shoulders, the body becomes narrower towards the bottom
In the case of sporty shoulders, one should take a back seat and emphasize the slender legs and cuffs. Uni-colored tops with V-neck create a good balance. Trousers and skirts may gladly stand in the focus and show off with colors and patterns.

Figure type X: Shoulders and hips are equally wide, narrow waist
The most feminine of all figure types should skillfully stage his curves. For example, with narrow pencil skirts, high waistbands and waisted tops. However, the clothes should definitely fit well to achieve the wow effect.

Figure type O: The center of the body is slightly wider than the rest
If you are rather roundish and would like to conceal this, it is best to wear long blazers or longer cardigans, combined with slender trousers and skirts. A V-neck is more flattering than a round neck. Basically it should be a bit purer, rather wear darker colors on the stomach and tan trousers. Patterns and colors rather “outside” than jacket or cloth. Even long chains are good for stretching.

Figure type A: Top narrow, wider hips
A clever choice of clothes can make this type of figure look more balanced: The slender upper body and shoulders can be accentuated by eye-catching tops, colors or patterns, shoulder flaps or shawls, while the legs and hips can be set to more subdued colors. Straight trousers and skirt cuts stretch optically.

Pro Tip: For quick conversions, always keep updated measurements as close to your body as possible without any clothes in the way. Keep this information handy by saving it on your phone or securing it inside your wallet.
