Sometimes one chance encounter is enough to set the usual course of life in motion. “Happiness in Good Hands” is a novel about how the most ordinary things can affect human destinies.
At 63, Son Yeohui lives the way many people can only imagine: a spacious house, expensive possessions, and perfect service. But behind the window of prosperity lies loneliness: her son is seriously ill, her daughter is constantly at work, and there is no one nearby with whom she can truly talk.
Everything changes when she accidentally finds the classifieds website “Second-Hand Country.” Taking the nickname Mrs. Fairy, she begins selling what she no longer needs and unexpectedly receives far more than just money—she gains a sense of being needed and a new meaning in life. Each sale becomes not merely a transaction, but a small story about kindness and involvement, about sudden friendship and hope for healing.
