8. Please Look After Mother by Shin Kyung-Sook Normally when a mother becomes separated from her family after being disoriented on a train, a family worries a little bit, then meets up at the next station. In Shin Kyung-Sook’s Please Look After Mother, the titular mother’s disappearance sparks a series of self-reflections. As the family searches for her, they each must question how well they know each other. Kyung-Sook’s family tale is a fantastic exploration into the modern Korean family, and the challenges most families face today.
