The English Classic Original

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

Set in the late Georgian-Early Victorian England

The Original Story

Jane Eyre, an orphan, embarks on a journey of self-discovery that leads her to Thornfield Hall, where she becomes a governess.

In the shadowed hallways and within the confines of her duties, she finds herself drawn to her enigmatic employer, Mr. Rochester.

As Jane navigates her growing affections, she uncovers secrets that threaten to unravel her hopes and dreams. Facing choices that challenge her morals and desires, Jane's path crosses with St. John Rivers, who offers her a different kind of future. Yet, her heart and her search for a true sense of belonging guide her back to Thornfield and Mr. Rochester.

Throughout this tale, Jane Eyre wrestles with themes of love, social class, gender roles, and the quest for independence and identity, making it a timeless exploration of the human condition.

This story invites readers into a world where the pursuit of one's true self and the fight for personal freedom can lead to unexpected places.

An adaptation of Jane Eyre

Our Take on the original

Kim Ji-Su, a young girl who wants to be successful like everyone around her but her age, wealth or power block her from achieving what she wants. Ji-Su learns that the paths she did not expect open up opportunties for her to widen her scope and experiences beyond her imagination.

Focusing on the family aspect of Ji-Su's life, our story shows how Ji-Su handles her family situation and her own independence. This story invites readers into a modern world of Jane Eyre where growing up alone can build bridges with people she had not expected.
