The theme of KLN Vol. 56 is “Polarizing Properties: the Story of Real Estate in Korean Lit.” This issue examines how Korean literature addresses the real estate issue, which is closely connected to the political and social context over a century. The Featured Writer section presents the firm world of works by the Featured Writer Kim Seung-hee through an interview, an essay, and 10 poems including poems published in her poetry collection The Truthful Human of Pickled Radish and Bacon. Starting with this issue, the Bookmark Section, which presents works of Korean literature, has been expanded. This issue provides an opportunity for the readers to get to know several young authors who are active in the Korean literary world through the entire text of stories by Kim Mella and Jung Jidon, as well as poems by Heo Yeon and Eugene Mok. Inkstone has also been revamped to carry a work of classical Korean literature instead of essays; this issue features the translation of The Wang Sibung giu gi (The story of a fortuitous encounter of Wang Sibung).
