About
Ham Jeung Im (Korean: 함정임; born 1964) is a South Korean writer, professor, and former literary editor. She began writing articles on Korean literature for the journal Monthly Literature & Thought when she graduated from university, and went onto become the editor-in-chief of the journal Writer’s World and the publisher Solbook. She made her literary debut in 1990 when her short story “Gwangjangeuro ganeun gil” (광장으로 가는 길 The Road to the Square) won the Dong-a Ilbo New Writer's Contest and has written prolifically since. In 1993, she married Kim So-jin, a leading realist writer in South Korea. She stayed with him until his death in 1997. Her experience as a writer, editor, and spouse of another writer gives her a unique perspective on 1990s Korean literature.
