Yoon Se-jung (1912-1966) was a North Korean novelist who published short stories such as “Geuneulmit sarang” (그늘밑 사랑 Love Under the Shade) (1937), “Myeongnang” (명랑 Cheerfulness) (1937), and “Nobyeon” (노변 Roadside) (1939) prior to the liberation of Korea from Japanese rule. Post-liberation, Yoon became more active as a writer, publishing short stories “Seonhwari” (선화리 Seonhwa-ri) (1947) and “Angoldongne” (안골동네 The Village in the Valley) (1948), and communicating detailed depictions of the changed lives of farmers in North Korea after liberation. Following the Korean War, Yoon wrote largely on the struggles of the proletariat class.
