book introduction

Cho Kyung-hee, who wrote and drew steady sellers "Mom Vending Machine" and "Dad Vending Machine" in the picture book field, came to readers with her third picture book "The Dream of Binter." If the previous works warmed the hearts of children who wanted to play with their busy mothers and fathers with their amazing imagination and pleasant stories of "vending machines," "Binter's Dream" presents the reader with a beautiful dream in which a vacant lot nestled in a desolate city center turns into a dense forest.

The writer's dream of "Binter" contains the artist's hope that "Binter," a space that will one day be filled with anything, will become a place where children can run around and play happily. The 'Vinter Story', which is told in concise and implicit texts and intense and heavy paintings, will also plant grass, flowers and trees in the empty spaces of readers' minds.


About the author and translator

Cho Kyunghee (Jieun)

As an adult, I became fond of picture books, and I am fascinated by picture books that convey stories through writing and painting, so I live as a picture book writer. In the future, I would like to continue to make picture books containing children's voices.
There are picture books "Mom Vending Machine" and "Dad Vending Machine", and I wrote and drew the third picture book "Dreams of Empty Place".

I want to live with nature.
Can Binter's dream come true?

One day, a woodhouse was built in a forest that was dense with grass and trees. Cars carrying trees were in and out of the woodhouse day and night. The tree gradually disappeared. An apartment building was built around the woodhouse, and people started to live together. One dark night, there was a big fire in the woodhouse. The lumberyard disappeared without a trace. And a vacant lot appeared. As the vacant lot opens its eyes, you can see the sky and clouds in the distance. The vacant lot also wanted to see trees, grass, and flowers.

People gathered in the vacant lot. As rumors spread that an apartment would be built and that a shopping mall would be built, more people came and scrambled to put up flags. The empty lot ached here and there. Binter, who couldn't wait to see more of people's greed, closed his eyes as if he had given up.

There are only rumors, and no apartments or shopping malls have been built in the vacant lot. I've been there for so long. And the seasons have changed several times. It's windy, and the warm sun is shining. The vacant lot opened its eyes again. What could be seen in Binter's eyes? Can the vacant lot's wishes come true?

Empty land in a desolate city center turns into a dense forest.
a picture book that presents a beautiful dream

Author Cho Kyung-hee, who wrote and painted the steady sellers "Mom Vending Machine" and "Dad Vending Machine" in the picture book field, came to the readers with her third picture book "Dreams of Empty Place." If the previous works warmed the hearts of children who wanted to play with their busy mothers and fathers with their amazing imagination and delightful stories of a vending machine, "Binter's Dream" presents the reader with a beautiful dream in which a vacant lot nestled in a desolate city center turns into a dense forest.

Artist Cho Kyung-hee saw grass, flowers, and trees grow naturally on land that had been empty for a while because development stopped one day. Also, I saw the happy laughter of dogs and children running around happily there.

"Children have to live in addition to nature like this, but I think adults are living with too much greed. "Binter's Dream" is a story that came to mind when I saw a vacant lot in the city center and children running around there. I wanted to let the vacant lot become a speaker and have a beautiful dream that the vacant lot becomes a forest."

Vacant means empty land. The empty land will be filled with anything one day. The artist wrote and drew "The Dream of the Empty Place" with the hope that it would be a space where nature and people live together and that it would be a space where children could run around happily. I hope that the 'Vinter Story', which is told in concise and implicit texts and strong and heavy paintings, will plant grass, flowers and trees in the empty spaces in our minds.
