Gu Byeong-mo
구병모
Gu Byeong-mo is known as an author that moves freely between the genre and techniques of fantasy and the style of traditional realism. Throughout her career, she has either depicted the fantasies of daily life or intermixed fantasy with daily life. Her light-hearted fantasy stories, in which magicians appear, people transform, and time runs backwards, also carry the shocking weight of issues like incest, child abuse, and filicide.
