💨 Abstract

South Korean author Han Kang, the first from her country to win the Nobel Prize in Literature, saw late recognition after the 2016 Man Booker International win for her novel "The Vegetarian." The book's slow international success, attributed to a low readership of literature in South Korea and a struggling publishing industry, has prompted hopes for a revival in Korean literature.
