Description 작품 소개

Published in 2014, Central Station by Kim Hye-jin deals with the love between a man and woman, both of whom are alienated from society and possess nothing. By removing all references to the past and present and focusing entirely on the present day, the novel gives a heightened description of the body’s emotions and sensations.

Author Bio 작가 소개

Kim Hye-jin김혜진

Born in 1983, Kim Hye-jin debuted with a short story “Chicken Run” in 2012 and received the 5 th Joongang Literary Award for Central Station in 2013. Unlike young writers her age, Kim does not go into exile in a virtual space or hides herself among probable episodes. She does not leave her world to look for hope, but instead she finds love in people at the cusp of desolation. She tells us to come take a look here with her. A world that people turn away from because of its stench, noise, and ugliness is for Kim a world to explore to find people who thrive in the darkest place. She tells us that here, you will also find an ageless soil called love that these people till. This is what makes the love story in Central Station particularly special. The more they become abstract, tainted, and pitiful, the higher their story of love rises above the world of senses to grab our attention.
