Choi In-hoon’s A Grey Man is a relentlessly realistic depiction of the dilemmas and disillusionments inherited by the generation of Korean intellectuals who came of age in the late 1950s, a generation born before the country was liberated from Japanese imperialism and who as adolescents endured the irrational obscenities of the Korean War.
