[The Globalists] Author of ‘Pachinko’ Min Jin Lee: Exploring the Identity of the Korean Diaspora

Ep. 01 Author of ‘Pachinko’ Min Jin Lee: Exploring the Identity of the Korean Diaspora
We are joined by Min Jin Lee, the author of the New York Times bestseller Pachinko, the second novel of her Koreans trilogy. Min Jin Lee announced her arrival in 2008 with the award-winning Free Food for Millionaires, and created waves once again in the US and the rest of the world with her second novel Pachinko in 2017. As Min Jin Lee works to finish American Hagwon, the last novel in the Koreans trilogy, she shares with us her thoughts on how the Korean experience in her novels has resonated with readers across the globe.
Ep. 01 파친코 작가 이민진, 이주 한국인 정체성에 대한 탐구
뉴욕 타임즈 베스트셀러 소설 ‘파친코’의 저자인 한국 이민자 1.5세대 이민진 작가가 출연해 그녀의 집필 활동을 꿰뚫고 있는 '한국인 3부작‘에 대한 의미를 전해준다. 2008년 ‘백만장자를 위한 공짜 음식’을 발표, 다수의 수상을 통해 세상에 이름을 알린 이민진 작가는 2017년 ‘파친코’를 통해 다시 한 번 미국을 포함, 각국에 큰 반향을 일으킨 바 있다. 현재 집필 중인 ‘아메리칸 학원’까지 ‘한국인 3부작’ 시리즈를 완결하고 싶다는 그녀가 전 세계에 전하고 싶은 한국 정서의 보편성과 특수성은 무엇인지 들어본다.

fascinating conversation between two thoughtful women

[@debbievandyke2275]

Thank you, great interview. Pachinko came to me by accident, and I haven't seen the TV series. I was blown away. Like Min Jin Lee said, this is a story that needs to be told. It was an honor to read this book! Looking forward to reading more.

Pachinko is a fantastic read. Min Jin Lee is very thoughtful and a true role model for Asian Americans.

I'm so glad this American women is here to explain Korea and Koreans to other Americans...

It is a lack of consideration about what is love. They send their child to 학원 because they love them. but lack of consideration means that at 학원, 학교 they destroy child's self esteem and result in the twist of personal character who prioritize the competition first. One ward that they make monster like Frankenstein.
