This photo shows the cover of the novel American Hagwon by Min Jin Lee. The cover of American Hagwon features a deep blue background with the title in large, stylized gold lettering at the top and the author's name, Min Jin Lee, in matching gold at the bottom. The central graphic is a large, bright red apple. Inside the apple, there is an illustration of a cityscape, and several small figures of people are shown walking along the top edge of the apple's lower half, as if walking up a hill toward the city. The sprayed features a series of blue illustrations set against a backdrop of stylized mountains. From top to bottom, the scenes include traditional Korean architecture, a suspension bridge resembling the Golden Gate Bridge with palm trees, the Sydney Opera House alongside another building, and a modern city skyline with skyscrapers

용기가 없어 시작도 못하고 있던 이민진 작가의 소설 파친코 읽고 있다. 영문 원작 첫 문장의 임팩트와 최근 황석영 작가의 철도원 삼대를 재미있게 읽은 덕에 호기심과 용기가 생겼다.
