Han, 53, was born in 1970 in Gwangju, South Korea. Her father was also a novelist, but much less successful. The family struggled financially and moved frequently. In a 2016 interview with The Times, Han said her poor childhood “was too much for a little child, but I was all right because I was surrounded by books.” When Han was 9, her family moved to Seoul just months before the Gwangju uprising (起义), when government troops fired on crowds of protesters, killing hundreds. The event shaped her views on humanity’s capacity for violence, Han said in the 2016 interview. Han studied literature at Yonsei University in Korea, and her first published works were poems.
