Author Bio 작가 소개

“In the heat that never cooled even with the arrival of night, I wedged myself, skirt pulled up, among kids my sister’s age like a rat, and breathed in the inscrutable warmth seething insidiously through the night streets and the sickly-sweet air filled with dense passions.” (Yunyeonui Tteul [The Garden of My Childhood], Moonji Publishing co., Ltd., 1981) Oh Jung Hee is a writer who portrays anxiety, fear, and the abyss of the human psyche through the lens of a woman.
