Jung Young Su was born in 1983 in Seoul, Korea. He made his literary debut in 2014 when his short story “Nights in Lebanon” won the Changbi Prize for New Figures in Literature. He has gained a wide readership for his astute depictions of discord between people and the world—based on his unique lyricism and deft humor. He won the Mukhakdongne Young Writers’ Award for two consecutive years—firstly in 2018 and then in 2019. Jung has published two short story collections: Aficionados and Tomorrow’s Lovers.

郑映秀(1983-)，韩国小说家。2014年短篇作品《黎巴嫩之夜》（《레바논의 밤》）获创批新人小说奖后，开始创作活动。其作品诙谐地再现了实存的虚无和人生的悲哀，尤以对失落和挫折的写实性感性描写而备受瞩目。曾于2018年、2019年获青年作家奖。


小说集《爱好者》（《애호가들》，2017）、《明日的恋人》（《내일의 연인들》，2020）
