A Night When I Meet My Sister is the author’s autobiographical story. The narrator, "young me," tells the story of her older sister. Her older sister is strong and healthy, more so than anyone else. Whether it's playing ddakji, marbles, or running, no one in the neighborhood can match her. Then one day, a gray spot appears on her sister’s body. The spot slowly increases in number. Along with this, a secret forms within the family.

This work uses the imagery of the gray spots and the gradually shrinking form of the sister to describe her illness in a way that is visible and tangible. The precise metaphors and symbolism strike the hearts of readers. It’s not just a story about death as a theme but a story told and remembered as "one person’s tale."
