    Sukhyang's Tale, known as one of the masterpiece women's narratives in the 17th century of old Korea, evolves around the love story of Sukhyang and Yi S¿n, which takes place in heaven and again on earth. It deals with stories from Sukhyang's ordeals of being separated from her parents during a bandit riot to her reunion with, and marriage to, Yi S¿n before ascending to heaven together. A dualistic world-view, in which the real and the surreal elements coexist, is portrayed through the close bond between the lovers under the context of predestined ordeals and happiness. Sugy¿ng's Tale, a love story between Sugy¿ng and S¿n'gun - being categorized as a romance novel with features and basic plots similar to Sukhyang's Tale - has a tragic twist. Sugy¿ng's Tale does not formalize romantic love of happy ending but portrays more the anguish of the times while taking the form of a fantasy. Nevertheless, the two novels commonly explore the difficulty of finding true love and how a woman, left at a disadvantage in society, faces severer ordeals as she has to face the absurdities of a medieval Chos¿n society defined by gender discrimination and Neo-Confucian ethics. Sohn Tae-soo, who is teaching translation at Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul, is a Korean-to-English translator, specializing in the sector of the Korean studies and academic papers, among others. Won-Chung Kim is a professor of English Literature at Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul, Korea, where he teaches contemporary American poetry, ecological literature, and translation. Christopher Merrill has published seven collections of poetry, including Watch Fire, for which he received the Lavan Younger Poets Award from the Academy of American Poets.

    A master of one liner, Shin Dal-Ja begins another remarkable volume of verse, Bukchon, with two one-liners, and no stanza break. Adopting this simple yet hard-to-master technique, she achieves uncommon concentration and musicality. The village called Bukchon is depicted as a regional utopia. Therein are multitudes of beautiful things: age-old trees, artwork traditional and modern, totally Korean-style houses and buildings, and most of all, lovable fellow citizens who breathe together the living past in present. This is the authentic identity of the poet and her village, ultimately of her country Korea. Shin's verse is a pleasure to the eye, a transformative force to the mind. To top it all, her lyrical strength, with ample display of subtle wit, often shines beyond imagination. Shin Dal-Ja has published several poetry books including Ardent Love, Paper. For her elegant and gorgeous verse she was awarded the Gongcho Literary Award, the Jeong Jiyong Literary Award, and the Daesan Literary Award, among others. She served as the president of the Society of Korean Poets, and is a member of the National Academy of Arts. A recipient of numerous grants for her English translation of modern Korean literature, Cho Young-Shil has translated seven contemporary poetry books including Paper by Shin Dal-Ja (Codhill Press, 2018) and Invisible Land of Love by Chonggi Mah (Homa & Sekey Books, 2022).
