韩江 / Han Kang

韩江 / Han Kang appears in 117.诅咒兔：怪谈文学也要上桌吃饭 as the opening literary context rather than the episode’s main subject. The host starts from her Nobel Prize recognition and from works such as 《素食者》 and 《植物妻子》 to show that Korean women writers can move between realism, magic realism, bodily estrangement, and literary prestige.

Her role in the source is connective. Han Kang makes the discussion of [[BoraChung|郑宝拉]] and [[CursedBunny|《诅咒兔》]] easier to place: if magic-realist and bodily strange writing can be welcomed into serious literature, then openly怪谈 material should not be excluded simply because it looks like genre fiction.
