What is The Bad Example of a Perfect Curse about?
The Bad Example of a Perfect Curse (완벽한 저주의 나쁜 예) is a fantasy romance novel by Seo Ji-hyun (서지현). Adrian is dead — all because of a curse. Adrina was Adrian's curse. People began to call Adrina, the curse itself, by her dead brother's name.
Taking her brother's identity, Adrina becomes a knight and is assigned to guard Duke Julius Casphras Woodpecker — a man cursed as a child to remain trapped in a boy's body. When Julius discovers that kissing Adrina can gradually break his curse, he schemes to keep her by his side. What begins as a forced arrangement slowly becomes something neither of them expected — a story of two cursed people saving each other.
The novel is completed and is published on Ridibooks.
