Jessie Kim has reached a low point in her life. Laid off from a high-powered Wall Street bank, despite her skills and hard work, she returns home to Nashville, Tennessee, with no idea of what to do next. Annoyingly, her childhood nemesis, Daniel Choi—now a successful and wealthy lawyer—is also back in town. Soon, living at home and cooking traditional Korean food with her umma gives Jessie the idea for a business to help home cooks bring some Korean flavor to their meals. And the more she sees Choi, who always seems to be around and even offers to help her with her business, the more she likes him. So We Meet Again by Suzanne Park tells the story of a relatable young woman working to find her place in life.
