WELCOME TO THE HYUNAM-DONG BOOKSHOP

by Hwang Bo-Reum​

If you are after something warm, wholesome, and comforting which doesn’t slide into cheesy or ‘same old-same old’ but is instead original, very Korean and utterly poignant, I can heartily recommend a visit to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop. If we didn’t already work at the Mary Martin we might all be heading to Seoul!​
