This is an essay by novelist and stand-up comedian Soyoon Won on her literary debut. She recounts submitting her novel manuscript to a publisher, waiting for an editor’s response, and her former pride in not having “ascended (deung)” any authoritative “platform (dan),” in either of her fields—comedy and literature—only to later recognize that she stands under the long and storied traditions of these fields.

소설가이자 스탠드업 코미디언인 원소윤의 등단 이야기. 장편소설을 출판사에 투고한 뒤 편집자의 연락을 받기까지의 이야기, 코미디와 소설 분야 모두 등단하지 않았다는 사실에(권위 있는 ‘단’에 ‘오르지’ 않았다는 사실에) 긍지를 느껴 왔지만 지금은 자신이 도도한 ‘전통’ 아래 있음을 인정하는 이야기 등이 펼쳐진다.
