О Чонхи родилась в 1947 году в Сеуле. Первая публикация в газете, рассказ "Женщина в магазине игрушек" (1968) был признан главным литературным дебютом 1968 года и удостоен престижной корейской премии "Чунган Ильбо". В течение следующего десятилетия О Чонхи активно публикуется в литературных журналах, оттачивая стиль короткой новеллы.В 1977 году вышел в свет первый сборник её новелл "Огненная река". Сборник состоит из двенадцати новелл, в которых противостоят друг другу две стихии - успокаивающая, всё смывающая вода и разрушающий огонь. Жизнь - это река, в которой скрыто пламя - страсти, пороки и сжигающие всё на своём пути желания, которые зачастую ведут к чудовищным поступкам... Издательство Гиперион, 2012 г.

O Chonghui is an immensely accomplished author, having won both the Yi Sang and Tongin awards, Korea's most prestigious prizes for fiction. Translations of her works into Japanese, English, French, and other languages have earned her international acclaim, generating comparisons with Joyce Carol Oates, Alice Munro, and Virginia Woolf. O Chonghui crafts historically-rooted yet timeless tales imagining core human experiences from a female point of view. Together with Pak Wanso (Park Wan-suh), she formed a powerful challenge to the conservative literary establishment in Korea, becoming one of the most astute observers of its society and the place of tradition within it. These nine stories range from O's first published work in 1968 to one of her last publications in 1994. Her early stories are compact, often chilling accounts of family dysfunction, reflecting the decline of traditional, agrarian economics and the rise of urban, industrial living. Later stories are more expansive, weaving eloquent, occasionally wistful reflections on lost love and tradition together with provocative explorations of sexuality and gender. O makes use of flashbacks, interior monologues, and stream-of-consciousness in her narratives, developing themes of abandonment and loneliness in a carefully cultivated, dispassionate tone. Her nameless narrators stand in for the average individual, struggling to cope with emotional rootlessness and a yearning for permanence in family and society. Arguably the first female Korean fiction writer to follow Virginia Woolf's dictum to do away with the egoless, self-sacrificing "angel in the house," O Chonghui is a crucial figure in the history of modern Korean literature, on par with Kim Sowol, Hwang Sunwon, and Yi T'aejun.
