Hi! Can you please suggest good books by Korean writers? It can be anything interesting or just feel-good, I'd be happy to try new genres! I'm obsessed with the country and would love to learn about its literature too. Thank you:)
I read “Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop” by Hwang Bo-reum earlier this year and it’s easily an all-time favorite now. 🙂

Han Kang, a South Korean author, literally just won the Nobel Prize in Literature this morning, so she would be a great writer to check out!
