Episode 6 - A Dream Built by Bricks and Chance Encounters

A chance encounter with a stranger. An unexpected romance that rivals a romantic comedy. A dream that grows from the pages of a discarded newspaper. In the moment, it’s hard to explain these experiences. We might call it luck, fate, a freak accident, or a coincidence. But over time and with a bit of reflection, when we find meaning in those special events, we call it serendipity. Join your host YeSeul Kim, on a journey to discover the moments of serendipity that forever changed the life trajectories of our guests. Expect stories that are full of irony and whimsy, love and tragedy, and despair and hope.
