About This Book
A novel by Yang Gui-ja. Upon its first publication in 1992, it immediately sparked feminist debates and became the center of public attention, quickly becoming the year's bestseller. In 1986, with Wonmi-dong People, the author captured the precarious lives of 1980s Korean society, and in 1990, her first full-length novel Hope portrayed the conflicts and contradictions of a rapidly changing era, leaving a deep impression. Her second full-length novel is I Wish for What Is Forbidden to Me.
The novel depicts a young woman kidnapping, imprisoning, and manipulating a popular male actor, which drew intense attention from readers and critics alike immediately after its release. The bold and audacious actions of the protagonist Kang Min-ju, along with the novel's unconventional plot, marked a striking transformation in Yang Gui-ja's literary world, which had previously embraced the struggles of contemporary neighbors with empathy and subtlety.
