Fans of Im Kwon-taek’s Taebaek Mountains will be pleased to hear that soon you’ll be able to read an English translation of Jo Jung-rae’s epic novel on which it was based, 태백산맥. More details on the Knowledge Pen website. (Via KTLit). But it could take a while – it’s 10 volumes long.
Hello Philip,
Thank you very much for sharing the news with Korean enthusiasts in the UK. My name is Natalia and I am representing an independent English publisher that is undertaking the translation and publishing of Jo Jung Rae’s work. If you would like to know more about the project, please let me know. I would be happy to share.

Really interested to know when the first volume is available.
