Overview
During the pre-democracy era when publications were under oppression, some people dreamed of a city for books and some architects came along to dream together. Then, they created an one-and-only ecological city for books in an abandoned swamp in the military border of Paju. This is the story of book and culture that dreams of peaceful unification, and its building process over 30 years.
