K-drama and K-pop have put South Korea on the cultural map, and there’s more to explore in Korean culture. In this episode, we give you a quick look at the literature that the Koreas — both South and North — have inspired. Grab your ramyeon and listen up as we talk about books with strong women protagonists, plastic surgeries, fever dreams, family sagas and more.
