Powerful story about a South Korean teenage girl lured into sexual slavery in the United States in order to pay off a huge financial debt.
Fascinating read. A sordid world I would have never known if it hadn't been for this graphic novel. Thanks Shimon!
This was such a cool and moving project. Also a great use of the graphic novel medium.
