Korean popularity in literature

Hallyu K pop started with music and dancing ,later extended to korean movies and soap operas and korean cuisine.With Han Kangs Nobel prize win,Korean literature translated to English is hot in demand.I thought English translation of Japanese writers like Haruki Murakami n Kazuo Ishiguro were popular but now korean literature is flying off the bookshelves of bookshops.I couldnt find Han Kangs novel The Vegetarian so i may buy it online. This afternoon i bought 2 very intriguing titles by korean novelist kyung sook shin Please look after mother and won pyung sohn Almond.Both are female wtiters and explore the theme of maternal love and adolescent misfits.Even my naughty cat was curious to check out these two novels,sniffing at the book covers.what! this cat likes to read like me .ha ha a cats eye review of korean literature.smartr pussy.Meow these books are totally indigestible.
