Trilogy by Gina Kim - Comfortless

The last part of the trilogy takes a trip to American Town. In 1969, a brothel was built specifically for the American soldiers stationed at the airbase in Kunsan, South Korea. Women were brought to the town from all over the country, and a small, independent, self-sufficient town was established: American Town. The virtual reality experience begins with the town’s present-day emptiness and silence, but as night falls, old sounds and ghosts roam the streets, reminding us of the terrible fates that befell the inhabitants of this place.
