Han Seung-won, the father of author Han Kang, who received the Nobel Prize for Literature for the first time in Korea, expressed his disbelief when he first heard the news of the award.

Regarding her daughter's work, she evaluated the sentence as delicate and sad sensibility.

I'll listen to it myself.

[Han Seung-won / Writer Han Kang's father: My daughter may not ride it until a few years later, I thought so, but yesterday's decision was too sudden. I can say it's embarrassing.... Historical trauma, this is the subject of the novel. I can't draw the love story of trauma and tender human beings that well. I was drawing it, and I thought Han Kang's style and sentence were just right. So the translator must have translated the delicate and beautiful sentences of Han Kang and the sad sensibility.]
