I was very surprised by her win too, and immediately went off to checck her age. I have a feeling that winners have typically written more than 5 books (or 5 in English I think she has at least).
I didn't like The Vegetarian at all, but the rest of the world did, so I know I'm the problem 🤣 I will definitely pick up something else by her and hope I can connect with it! 🎉
Would be very interested to know if any of the committee members or anyone else associated with them received some sort of FINANACIAL support from the CPC. Am I trying to put forth some sort of CONSPIRACY THEORY? No just innocently ASKING QUESTIONS as the saying goes.⚛️❤
Human Acts is an extraordinary book. Good news.
Yay looking forward to your han kang video!
Congratulations to Han Kang !! I would recommend reading The Vegetarian first.

HOLD ON is Disco Daddy Scottish?
That explains *everything* about your sense of humour 🏴
She's no Alexis Wright, but I do like Han Kang's work. Overall I'm happy with the choice
I approve. Good choice.

Is your father the DiscoEmperor?
Can’t believe the Nobel Committee didn’t get Han on the pitch scoring a goal as she was announced as the winner. ⚽️
Ok STRIKE my last comment. Forgot she’s Korean NOT Chinese. Guess that makes it alright!⚛️❤
They're not just dogs, they're christmas dogs
I'm quite surprised. I've only read the vegetarian by her and it didn't really stick with me. Maybe I need to dive deeper
Intro song?
They really don't wanna give it to Atwood. 🙄
Rudyard Kipling was 41 when he won, so she isn’t THAT young to have been awarded.
I wasn't expecting that, but I'm happy with Han Kang. It's better than yet another old European man.
Bizarrre choice
HAN KANG?! Eh?

I have read two of her books and don't feel particularly impressed. Better things out there.
I DNFd The Vegetarian and have no desire to read any more of Kang's prose. It was tepid and unimpressive
