Description:

"New Normal Zine" centers on Cha Ji Min, a single woman dedicated to a slow living lifestyle. Her professional path takes an unexpected turn after the current affairs magazine she worked for as a local news reporter is shut down. She transitions to a new role as an editor for the digital magazine New Normal Zine, which operates under the same parent company. This new chapter places her under the direction of Chief Editor Song Ro Ji.

Cha Ji Min and Song Ro Ji share a history, having started their careers with the parent company in the same year. However, their personalities and work ethics couldn't be more different; Song Ro Ji is a relentless workaholic, a stark contrast to Cha Ji Min's more measured approach. The narrative explores Cha Ji Min's efforts to navigate and survive in this demanding new environment, where she must balance her personal philosophy with the high-pressure realities of digital media. Her struggle to adapt and find her footing forms the compelling core of "New Normal Zine."
