My 2026 buzz list for Korean literature

  • *The Memory Bookshop (*memory + identity)
  • The Legend of Lady Byeoksa (fantasy + folklore)

Opinion on Han kang ?

Korean books are now top translated fiction globally , Nobel Prize momentum boosted attention , I had seen " the vegetarian" movie which wasn't typical mainstream , before I read her novel in 2023, I don't know how I stumbled upon it but I did . At that time I relate to internal conflict more than external chaos.
