Welcome to our second and final discussion of **Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982** by Cho Nam-Joo! Thank you, [u/chronicallylatte](u/chronicallylatte), for taking us through the first half with a lovely discussion that can be found here, if you already haven’t checked it out.
For this discussion, we'll be talking about the second half of the book, starting from page 85, in the "Early Adulthood, 2001-2011" chapter all the way to the end of the book. Since this discussion will complete the book, there will be spoilers for the entire book here!
Don't forget to check out the Marginalia, too.
I will get us started with some questions but please feel free to share anything you’d like! Comments, quotes that stood out, thoughts and feelings about the book and its topics are all welcome :)

I thought I had missed something, too! I guess nothing unusal occurred in their early relationship, so it was not relevant to the psychiatrist, but for us readers it would have been interesting to learn more about how they got to know each other and why it was Daehyun whom Jiyoung chose as a long-term partner.
