Within this hallucination, Yoon Min-young spends several tragic days, making various choices. He strives to escape his circumstances, but the choices of others intervene, steering things in an unwanted direction.
The short story A Minor Choice cleverly explores the theme of how our brains can manipulate our senses, blurring the line between truth and falsehood, through the genre of a thriller.
