One evening, Sewol, the library director, discovered a monster named Hye-seong who was eating a book in a corner of the library. She was startled for a moment, but Sewol, who doesn’t feel emotions well, focuses more on the fact that she caught a book thief than the fact that she saw a monster at that moment. To prevent further loss of books, Sewol creates a counseling department and suggests that Hye-seong eat the students’ worries instead of books.
As the counseling department officially starts its activities, Kim Hae-won, who wants to give up his dream, Seo-byul and Kwon Da-kyung, who want to forget a self-harm incident, and Yu Hae-ram, who wants to forget an unrequited love, come to the counseling department one by one with their own worries. They want to solve or forget their worries forever. As they see their complicated dreams, pains, and wounds, Hye-seong and Sewol fall into an unexpected dilemma. Can we just erase their worries…?
The characters in <I’ll Eat Your Story>, who try to solve their worries by forgetting them, are a portrait of the lethargic Z generation who are tired of excessive competition such as career path, entrance exams, and grades. If the existing growth novels captured the struggle to solve even unsolvable worries, the characters in <I’ll Eat Your Story> consistently take a ‘cool’ attitude towards their worries.
The Z generation, familiar with solving problems with fantasy narratives, and the teenagers who have given up worrying about their worries. What does their innermost feelings look like? Through <I’ll Eat Your Story>, you will be able to discover the sincere hearts of teenagers here and now.
