THE MULTI-MILLION-COPY SELLING SOUTH KOREAN SENSATION THAT HAS GOT THE WHOLE WORLD TALKING

Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982 is the life story of one young woman born at the end of the twentieth century and raises questions about endemic misogyny and institutional oppression that are relevant to us all. Riveting, original and uncompromising, this is the most important book to have emerged from South Korea since Han Kang's The Vegetarian.
Praise for Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982
'It describes experiences that will be recognisable everywhere. It's slim, unadorned narrative distils a lifetime's iniquities into a sharp punch.' The Sunday Times
'A ground-breaking work of feminist fiction' Stylist
'Along with other socially critical narratives to come out of Korea, such as Bong Joon-ho's Oscar-winning film Parasite, her story could change the bigger one.' TheGuardian
'This witty, disturbing book deals with sexism, mental health issues and the hypocrisy of a country where young women are "popping caffeine pills and turning jaundiced" as they slave away in factories helping to fund higher education for male siblings.' The Independent
'Enthralling and enraging.' Sunday Express
'Cho's moving, witty and powerful novel forces us to face our reality, in which one woman is seen, pretty much, as interchangeable with any other. There's a logic to Kim Jiyoung's shape-shifting: she could be anybody.' Daily Telegraph

    Große Empfehlung - Feministische Literatur

    Gut geschriebenes Buch zum Leben von Frauen* im Patriarchat. Trotz des ernsten Themas hat es sich schnell gelesen. Eine feministische Herzensempfehlung! Ich bin schon gespannt auf die nächsten Bücher der Autorin.

    Buch (Taschenbuch)

    “The fact that they have families and parents,” Eunsil retorted, “is why they shouldn’t do these things, not why we should forgive them.”

    Initially released in 2016, this book just got even more relevant over the course of its existence. Kim Ji-young tells her coming of age story and what it entails to be a woman in a world that doesn’t foresee you as a respected and appreciated member of society. You should never dress too frilly, never be too nice to your male classmates, never talk about your female anatomy or you will be held accountable if someone takes advantage of your body on the bus even though you were just trying to get home from school. How could you be so naive in the first place? He was just trying to be nice. You should take it as a compliment. You should marry soon or it might be too late already. You should take pride in your role as a mother and be a good homemaker. You did not really think a corporate career was even possible, right? You should never look out for your own enjoyment. God forbid you grand yourself an iced coffee while strolling through the park with your child. How could you be so selfish spending your husbands hard earned money on your own pleasure? While you lounge around all day doing presumably nothing. Oh, but if you don’t take care of your aging appearance, you should not be too surprised if he cheats on you with his young co-worker. You should not even question his internet search history. Was there ever a chance for you to do the right thing in the first place? Or were the cards laid out before you were even part of the system? The choice may have never been yours to make.

    Zu empfehlen

    Story fängt einen. Lässt sich auch gut lesen, weil es kurz ist. Es wird nicht langweilig und gibt interessante Fakten zur Ungleichheit zwischen Frau und Mann - Auch sind einige packend in der Story mit eingebunden.

    Ein Must-Read

    Muss man einfach gelesen haben! Das Buch ist fantastisch geschrieben. Die Protagonistin Kim Jiyoung nimmt uns mit durch ihr Leben vom Grundschulalter bis hin zur Zeit als verheiratete Frau und Mutter. Es werden immer wieder die Ungerechtigkeiten und Hindernisse die eine Frau erlebt - ob im Alltag oder im Job - deutlich gemacht und immer wieder durch Studien belegt. Das Buch zeigt ebenfalls deutlich, wie weit man eigentlich noch von der Gleichberechtigung entfernt ist und was eine Frau alles aufgeben muss

    Sollte in der Schule gelesen werden!

    „What is it with you and „helping out“? You‘re going to „help out“ with chores. „Help out“ with raising our baby. „Help out“ with finding me a new job. Isn‘t this your house, too? Your home? Your child? Why do you keep saying „help out“ like you‘re volunteering to pitch in on someone else‘s work?“ Ein so so so gutes und wichtiges Buch! Sollten definitiv noch mehr Leute lesen. Ich fand es total interessant, von Kim Jiyoung gelesen, weil ich nicht viel über die Situation in Südkorea wusste. Wie viel sich die Frauen im Laufe des Buches anhören mussten, fand ich einfach nur erschreckend. Es ist so unglaublich, wie man Menschen so behandeln kann. Das Buch war echt total gut, voller guter Messages und legt einfach sehr gut dar, wie krass Misogynie teilweise war/noch immer ist.
