No Koreans would hesitate to pick Kim So-wol's poems if asked to choose the poems which are the most universal and the most individualistic in the history of Korean poetry, the most Korean and the strongest international appeals, and the easiest and the most deepest, the poems that both South and North Korea readily agree as the greatest lyric poems. It is simply impossible to talk about Korean poetry, and Korean literature for that matter, without mentioning Kim So-wol. This book is an easy explanation of Kim's literature by the author, who has wrote and studied poems for scores of years, with his sharp insight and keen literary sensitivity.
