I Went to See My Father

The instant Korean bestseller
An instant bestseller in Korea and the follow up to the international bestseller, PLEASE LOOK AFTER MOTHER, this is a story of one woman's efforts to reconnect with her aging father and a sweeping family saga that charts Korea's tumultuous history

'A powerful, elegant page-turner' J.M. Lee

'Gentle yet piercing' Kirkus Reviews

After losing her daughter in a tragic accident, Hon returns to her childhood home in the Korean countryside to look after her elderly father. There, the discovery of a chest of letters compels her to piece together the violent, vibrant story of his life.

More than just a portrait of one man, I Went to See My Father asks us to look at the ones we love, uncover the secrets they keep, and finally see who they really are.

Affectionate, epic, joyous and lasting, this is the perfect follow-up to beloved classic Please Look After Mother.
