From the ancient times of Gojoseon to the Goguryeo kingdom
China’s Northeast Project assimilates the entirety of Korean history
However, the truth unveils when Goguryeo’s powerful history is brought back to life!
Since his first debut in 1993 with “The Rose of Sharon Blooms Again,” Kim Jin-myung always had a story that he envisioned writing some time in his life. Keeping this goal in his mind, he has worked tirelessly for 17 years to craft the masterpiece of his lifetime, which finally made its debut as “Goguryeo.” This novel series features stories revolving around five kings—Micheon, Gogugwon, Sosurim, Gogugyang, Gwanggaeto the Great—who lived through the most tumultuous eras in Northeast Asia’s rapidly changing landscape, much like the one today.
Despite being the most powerful kingdom in Korean history, the Goguryeo kingdom has never been properly discussed in the literature. In other words, we have been hiding the most glorious part of our history that deserves to be honored and widely acknowledged. It is truly fortunate to have “Goguryeo” published during this chaotic time, in this contemporary society where the Liao civilization is claimed to have originated from China, and people are busy admiring only the history of the Three Kingdoms. Kim Jin-myung’s new novel is a carefully written piece that acknowledges the importance of historical responsibilities; it is an absolute must-read for our current Korean generation that is obliged to protect Korean history from the ruthless attack of China’s Northeast Project.
“Goguryeo” breaks the traditional mold of historical fiction; it hooks readers with its fast-paced writing style, structured narrative with meticulous details, unique characters with distinctive personalities, and compelling battle scenes that are as spectacularly vivid as those seen in movies. Unlike other historical novels, more than half of the readers are women, which easily proves that the “Goguryeo” series is full of captivating stories that can be enjoyed by anyone, anywhere.
