LES PETITES ÉPICERIES DE MON ENFANCE – Lee Mekyeoung

The small country grocery stores that dot South Korea are precious souvenirs for telling the story of this country, which Lee Mekyeoung has been visiting for over twenty years. Here, we learn how to prepare dalgona, those delicious sweets cooked over a wood fire; we recall the bench by the door, the smell of barley tea and persimmons. We marvel with her at these small, discreetly beautiful stores that have stood the test of time, contemplating the world without moving. These are places where the modest everyday scenes that make life so sweet are played out, awakening nostalgia for pleasures we no longer pay attention to.
