Kyoko and Kyoji

A collection of short stories from Han Junghyun.

A short story by Han Junghyun published in pamphlet form as part of the IYAGI (meaning: story) series and translated from Korean by Emily Yae Won. From the people who brought you KESHIKI and YEOYU.

"My name is きょうこ, Kyoko, I am Korean ... I have something important to tell you."

A subtly disorienting story of reminiscences between a mother and daughter as they each in their own way struggle with the effects of the mother's encroaching dementia. As they each try to piece together the fragments of a traumatic history, through doing so they tell a wider story of Korea itself.
