愛情 日常
2020
29歲單身、後青春期女孩,工作忙碌、愛情迷惘、還轉不了大人…… 在雜誌出版社擔任編輯的梓淳,過著和同事打鬧的平凡生活。但眼看著昔日同窗、工作同事們紛紛找到各自歸屬,彷彿滯留原地的她,不時閃躲來自社會對未婚子女的目光。 工作遇到瓶頸,被錯認的愛情傷害,歷經社會摧殘後她還剩下多少力氣追逐夢想? 這是她透過工作與愛情,展開自我探索與蛻變成長的都會日常故事。
MENG Zi-Chun, a single female office worker, thought her life was bland and devoid of meaning—until, in her patriarchal and misogynistic workplace, she finds that life isn't as smooth as she thought. Fed up with being meek and submissive, Zi-Chun begins asserting herself in life. As a window into the plight of women in our modern, fast-paced workplaces, this comic explores what it's like to live in a time when things—and people—are seen as easily expendable. People may become busy and lose their bearings, but they never stop pursuing meaning in their lives.

Li Yu-ning's pen name, NIN, is inspired by part of her Chinese name (凝, Ning), which means "coalesce". NIN channels this concept in her art, as well as in her life, by concentrating on and bringing into focus anything worth cherishing. NIN has loved to draw and paint ever since she was little, and she was deeply influenced by Japanese manga and anime growing up. After taking art in high school, she went on to earn a degree from the Department of Visual Communication Design at National Taiwan University of the Arts. Driven by an intense desire to tell colorful stories about life, NIN often experiments with fusing together elements of drawing, painting, and graphic design to create illustrations and cartoons that convey fun and quirky perceptions.
