I Went To See My Father by Kyung-sook Shin
A writer returns to her rural hometown to spend time with her aging father, and through conversations, letters, and neighbors’ recollections she pieces together the hidden contours of his life—his quiet sacrifices, unfulfilled dreams, and the losses he carried. Moving across decades of rapid social change, the narrative illuminates the gap between what children perceive and what parents endure, ultimately tracing a tender, elegiac journey toward understanding, regret, and reconciliation.
