520    "Inspired by Yeon-sik Hong's attempt to move to the 
       country with his partner, Uncomfortably happily is the 
       story of a young couple finding their way. Burdened by 
       unmet comics deadlines and high rent, our narrator and his
       wife know they must make a change. Convinced the absence 
       of traffic noise will ease his writer's block, our pair 
       welcomes the idea of building a life from scratch. 
       Deciding on a home atop an uninhabited mountain, they 
       excitedly embrace the charms of their new rural existence.
       From tending to the land and attempting grocery runs 
       through snow, to the complexities of fighting depression 
       in seclusion, the move does not immediately prove to be 
       the golden ticket they'd hoped for, and the silence of the
       mountain poses as much of an obstacle to output as the 
       sirens of the city. Through it all, though, we see simple 
       pleasures seep in and gain prominence over these 
       commercial, and, often, comparatively trivial worries: the
       smell of the forest, the calming weight of enveloping snow,
       and the gratification of a stripped down life making art 
       begin to muffle other concerns. Originally published in 
       Korean to great acclaim and winning the Manhwa Today award,
       Uncomfortably, Happily uniquely explores our narrator's 
       inner world. Hong propels the comic with gorgeously 
       detailed yet simple art, sharing the story of two lives 
       unfolding slowly, sometimes uncomfortably, yet ultimately,
       happily."--|cProvided by publisher.
