[INTERVIEW / KOREAN AUTHORS]

Writer Kwon Jung-Min

Korean Authors Writer Kwon Jung-Min “Picturing” an Ordinary Scene with a Fresh Perspective 2024.01.02 Unlike novels, which use words to create a picture in the reader’s mind, picture books allow the reader to imagine the story using only “pictures.” If you are a reader who needs a break from reading and watching in the midst of flashy digital visual media, a picture book can be a shelter. Kwon Jung-Min finds new aspects in familiar scenes in everyday life and captures the hidden aspects of human beings in a fresh way through the art of drawing. Following is an interview with Kwon, who practices looking into herself through picture books. It’s a pleasure to have you with us on K-Book Trends.

One-Liner Quotes Book-tuber’s Picks Two ways of looking at hope:Kim Eun-Kook’s The Martyred, Park Ji-Won’s The Jehol Diary 2021.10.05 The novel The Martyred (Munhakdongne Publishing Co.) depicts human beings that didn’t let go of hope even in the midst of war. Koreans had to undergo the Korean War, which was a skirmish of the Cold War in the 20th century, only five years after the country was liberated from Japanese occupation. All human beliefs are shattered on the battlefield, where minutes or even seconds determine life and death: evil flourishes, and good dies. Falsehood becomes truth, and truth becomes falsehood – the end of absurdity takes place. The “alternative truth” is common in extreme circumstances such as war. Writer Kim Eun-Kook who immigrated to the United States after participating in the Korean War as an officer, elevates the story of a young man who ...
