Yi Kwang-su had been a man of letters more than a writer of fiction, probably the most distinguished, if controversial, Korean man of letters from the mid-1910s through the 1930s. During these years he not only produced a stream of full-length novels and short stories but also a large number of newspaper columns and powerfully argued provocative essays on some of the most critical issues of his time, such as the custom of early and arranged marriage, filial obligations, the place and rights of women in family and society, and the need for educational reform. It may indeed be the case that his writings on these issues were far more important than the body of his fiction, even though he has often been called the father of the modern Korean novel. It has been exactly 90 years since Mujông, Yi’s landmark first full-length novel, was serialized in Maeil Sinbo in 1917. And in 2005 an English version translated by Yi’s grand-daughter, Ann Sung-hi Lee, was published.

Yu Kwan Soon was a young teenage girl who led the March First Movement demonstrations in 1919. She was one of the strongest activists to rally the people to protest the Japanese rule of Korea. She was only 18 at the time and was arrested and imprisoned by the Japanese for her role in the anti-Japanese activities. After suffering for almost two years in a Japanese prison in Korea, she died from barbaric tortures by the Japanese savages. Today, she is considered as Korea's Jean d'arc.
