Madam Can’t Sleep

Sojin, the widowed daughter-in-law of the well-known Kim family, had always been the image of grace and restraint in the village—her name often spoken with quiet admiration for the way she carried herself after loss. Having lost her husband at a young age, she lived a life bound by tradition and silence. But behind closed doors, another story begins to unfold. A whispered request. A forbidden moment. “If you don’t… fulfill this,” came the quiet voice, laced with tension, “then I won’t be able to hold back.” And just like that, Sojin found herself standing on the edge between duty and desire—questioning everything she thought she knew about who she was… and what she truly wanted.
