Summary provided by the publisher:

\n

Kyuri is a heartbreakingly beautiful woman with a hard-won job at a "ro om salon\," an exclusive bar where she entertains businessmen while they d rink. Though she prides herself on her cold\, clear-eyed approach to life\ , an impulsive mistake with a client may come to threaten her livelihood. Her roommate\, Miho\, is a talented artist who grew up in an orphanage but won a scholarship to study art in New York. Returning to Korea after coll ege\, she finds herself in a precarious relationship with the super-wealth y heir to one of Korea's biggest companies. Down the hall in their apartme nt building lives Ara\, a hair stylist for whom two preoccupations sustain her: obsession with a boy-band pop star\, and a best friend who is saving up for the extreme plastic surgery that is commonplace. And Wonna\, one f loor below\, is a newlywed trying to get pregnant with a child that she an d her husband have no idea how they can afford to raise and educate in the cutthroat economy. Together\, their stories tell a gripping tale that's s eemingly unfamiliar\, yet unmistakably universal in the way that their ten tative friendships may have to be their saving grace.
