Book Signing
Book Signing | Kyobo Book Centre Gwanghwamun | June 20 (Sat) | 3:00 PM
To celebrate the release of my new transcription book (필사집), I have set aside time to greet you face to face. If there is one reason I came to publish this copybook, it is the deep meaning of solidarity in reading, being read, and writing together with you, my readers. I hope this signing becomes a chance to affirm the comfort and encouragement we offer one another. I will also sign every one of my earlier works, so if you have any of my books, please feel free to bring them along. I will be waiting for you in Gwanghwamun.
* Participation is open only to those who purchase the book on-site. (First 100 people / books bought via Baro Dream or other bookstores are excluded.) Numbered tickets are handed out from 9:30 AM at the JK Desk. On-site photography is allowed.
