Nareul Jugil Aireul Kiunda

Synopsis

Medusa, a monster known for her grotesque appearance but who in truth loves children, comes across a child destined to kill her inside a chest that has washed ashore. Determined to avoid her fate of death, she resolves not to kill the child but to raise him instead. She gives him a name and lovingly brings him up. Carefully dodging the potentially fatal crises caused by the child’s every little action, Medusa does her best at childcare. However, a group of humans searching for the child eventually appears before her. Medusa soon realises that they have come to kill him… Will Medusa be able to escape her destined death and live happily with the child? A reinterpretation of Medusa—the widely known monster of myth—as a warm, heroic protagonist, along with a newly imagined relationship with her nemesis Perseus. A work intended to be easy to read even for those unfamiliar with the original myth. (Source: Ridibooks, translated)
