The Trunk 트렁크: Now Streaming on Netflix by Kim Ryeo-ryeong 김려령

The English language debut from bestselling Korean author Kim Ryeo-ryeong – an edgy, arresting drama about a secret marriage service for Korea’s wealthy elite, and one unlikely couple in the thick of it all.
  Meet Noh Inji: almost thirty years old, with five wedding rings and counting, she's never once been in love.
When Inji first accepted a job at Wedding & Life, the popular matchmaking service that’s taken Korea by a storm, she never imagined her role would be with NM, their secret marriage division that rents out “husbands” and “wives” to their wealthiest clientele. Just like a real marriage, Inji's assignments involve a wedding, some sex and a bit of housework, all tailored exactly to the client’s desires and length of time before they go their separate ways – no legal battles, no fights, no emotional baggage.
   After several marriages, Inji has become an old hand. She certainly isn’t interested in finding real love, despite everyone trying to convince her otherwise (her brazen neighbor Granny, her flirtatious best friend Shi-jeong, and her failed blind date, Tae-seong, who won’t take no for an answer).
   Then one of Inji's old husbands, a mysterious high profile music producer, requests her back for another year. Over the course of their marriage, the secrets of Inji’s past begin to unravel – as well as the dark, sinister underbelly of NM’s management team, who will stop at nothing to preserve their reputation… and their clients…  from AMAZON

김려령 작가의 '트렁크'를 영어로 번역한 작품이다. 원작인 한국어 책을 읽지 않아서 구체적으로 말하기 어렵지만 영어원서만을 보고 말한다면 번역이 잘 된 작품인 거 같다. 한국적인 표현들을 영어로 잘 번역한 거 같고 문장의 구조나 표현등이 난해하지 않아서 읽는데 큰 무리가 없는 거 같다. 다만 내용이 19금이다. 드라마로 제작되었다고 하는데 검색을 해보니 내용이 좀 다른 거 같다.
