"Normally, people eat rice cakes. But this is a story where the rice cake ate the person."In this episode of Slow Night, Sleepy Stories, we bring you 'Rice Cake' (Tteok), a poignant short story by the master of Korean modern literature, Kim Yu-jeong. First published in 1935, it depicts a day in the life of 7-year-old Oki, who struggles with extreme hunger in a cold, harsh winter.As the cold winds of the story fade away, we invite you back to a warm spring night. May your sleep be as light as cherry blossom petals falling on your pillow. Rest deeply and wake up to a brighter tomorrow.Author: Kim Yu-jeongNarrated by: Slow Night, Ancient Tales#Audiobook #SleepStory #BedtimeStories #KoreanLiterature #KimYujeong #RiceCake #SoftSpoken #SleepAid #HealingVoice #ClassicLiterature #CalmNight #ASMRSleep
