Kim Hongshin (1947~) is a South Korean novelist. He made his literary debut in 1976w with the publication of “Bonjeondaek” (본전댁) in Hyundae Munhak. Published from 1981 to 1989, Ingansijang (인간시장 Human Market) enjoyed widespread popularity for the way it highlighted the harsh lives of the petit bourgeois as well as the contradictions and corruptions of modern society.

김홍신(1947~)은 한국의 소설가다. 1976년 <현대문학>에 <본전댁>을 발표하며 작품활동을 시작했다. 작가는 1981년부터 1989년까지 <인간시장>을 출간했는데 소시민들의 열악한 삶과 현대사회의 모순과 비리를 파헤쳤다는 점에서 대중들의 인기를 얻었지만 동시에 재미만 추구했다는 혹평을 받기도 했다.
