SOUND OF THE RAIN

Kim Soo-ah X Mun Kang-dae

Some people search for success.

Some people search for love.

They were only searching for peace.

Kim Soo-ah, a twenty-seven year old medical student who never got to become a doctor, spends her days moving between a coffee shop and a convenience store, working endless shifts to pay her uncle's hospital bills. Haunted by the death of the brother who sacrificed his life for her, she carries a grief too heavy to speak about. Alcohol was never a habit she wanted-it simply became the only thing that could silence her thoughts.

Mun Kang-dae has everything people dream of and nothing he truly needs.

At twenty-seven, he is the newly appointed CEO of a once-bankrupt company, admired for his intelligence and determination. Yet behind the expensive suits and luxurious lifestyle stands a lonely man abandoned by his own mother. After being thrown out of his home without explanation, he spent years trying to become someone worthy of her love. But just as he reached the top, his life began falling apart once again.

One lost her future.

One lost his family.

One lives with guilt.

One lives with unanswered questions.

As their paths cross unexpectedly, two strangers burdened by pain begin to discover something they have never found on their own-that peace is not always found within yourself.

Sometimes, it is found in another person who understands your wounds without asking you to explain them.

A story about grief, loneliness, sacrifice, healing, and the quiet love that grows between two people who have spent their entire lives surviving.
