Love in the Big City

Love in the Big City is a novel by Sang Young Park made up of four interconnected short stories, published in South Korea in 2019. Anton Hur translated it into English. It was longlisted for the International Booker Prize in 2022. Kim Ho-Yeon calls it a thoughtful exploration of the challenges, love, loss and mortality faced by Korea’s young people, and says it is more than a queer narrative. It has also been adapted into a film and a series.
