Frank Li, a boy of many names, is the kind of guy who looks for love in all the wrong places; specifically, he gets a crush on a fellow student who isn't Korean like his parents want.
The experience of first love is as sloppy, frenetic, and chaotic as you would imagine, but Yoon takes this a chance to create a constellation of wonder, interconnecting to Frank's heavily divided heart.
As Frank falls deeper in love, he's struck by his parents' past, his ideas of the future, and the inevitable conflict of his present.
FRANKLY IN LOVE is an astounding debut with no easy answers but enough soulful discussion to make one lose one's head and heart.
