  In the bustling market district of Seoul, where the sounds of merchants calling their wares mixed with the rhythmic clicking of looms and the gentle hum of daily life, lived a young tailor named Dong-su. His shop was small and modest, squeezed between a rice seller and a pottery maker, but his needlework was renowned throughout the city for its extraordinary precision and beauty.

  Despite his skill, Dong-su struggled to make ends meet. The wealthy nobles preferred to patronize the grand tailoring houses in the palace district, leaving him to serve the common people who often couldn’t afford to pay much for his services. Still, he worked diligently from dawn to dusk, taking pride in creating beautiful garments even for those who could only offer a handful of coins.

  In the bustling merchant town of Nishiki-machi, where silk traders from across the empire came to buy the finest fabrics in all of Japan, there lived a humble tailor named Jiro whose shop was tucked away in a narrow alley far from the grand marketplaces. While wealthy merchants displayed their luxurious wares in elaborate storefronts, Jiro worked quietly in his small workshop, mending clothes for poor families and creating simple garments for those who couldn’t afford the expensive silks sold in the main district.
