Round Ground Where dreams of a world full of well-rounded lives exist 2019.10.07 How does play begin? There are times when one ponders whether play has turned into learning. So much educational material and the media rarely think twice about directing children how to play, and caregivers are always eager to lead and interfere when children play. One may think there are right and wrong ways to play, but play will always be play. Playing is enough when it's enjoyed no matter the process, with fun materials and tools.

It is the story of writer Lee Seula, who came up with a clever idea to continue securing stable finance through writing.

Writing a story and making a book. They are different in many aspects by nature except one thing that they are all for readers.
