The Moon Glow Bookshop

What if you could turn the pages of your own life, like the pages of your favourite book?

Somewhere along the ordinary alleys you pass by every day, a mysterious shop appears between all the other familiar buildings. Surely, you didn’t see it yesterday or the day before. A large sign reads ‘The Moon Glow Bookshop’ but it seems to have a smaller poster on its window saying, ‘If only your life were like a book’.

The faint glow of light from the shop somehow seems to offer you comfort. From just looking at the poster, you can’t really tell if it’s a bookstore, a bar, or a cafe. Upon opening the door and entering, the first thing that catches your eye are the shelves filled with bottles. It seems to be a bar, and as you take a sip of your desired cocktail, you feel yourself slowly entering a different world…

Boreum, a moon rabbit, and Moon, the guardian of a magical library, have abandoned their jobs as celestial custodians and started operating a mysterious shop on Earth called The Moon Glow Bookshop. At the end of a weary day, around the time when the moon rises, people make their way into the shop and choose cocktails to relive their most regrettable moments. When guests choose a drink, they’re served a matching dish as part of the magical experience. The dish that goes well with the cocktail you chose could be a simple egg omelette or perhaps a ripe, juicy tomato that you cannot bear to eat because of its perfect roundnesss. The result could be a coincidence or destiny.

From a musician who lost her mother due to perilous mistake and is fated to lose her lover and father again, to a novelist who has become obsessed with success, and a working adult who, obsessed with making money, completely forgot their childhood dreams – everybody goes looking for answers in The Moon Glow Bookshop.
