Jung Mi-Kyung (Korean: 정미경; 4 February 1960 – 18 January 2017) was a modern South Korean novelist.[1]

Life

Jung Mi-Kyung was born on February 4, 1960, in Masan, South Gyeongsang Province, South Korea.[2] Jung graduated from Ewha Womans University with a degree in English literature and in 1987 made her literary debut by winning the drama category of the JoongAng Literary Award. After this, however, she withdrew from literary work for over a decade, re-entering the scene as a novelist, debuting with the short story "The Woman With Arsenic" in the Fall volume of World Literature. Thereafter, she has concentrated on her literary career with great success.[1]

Work

Korean critic Kim Kyung-Yeon has referred to Jung's work as, "(portraying) a deceptive society full of absurd spectacles, where truth and falseness are intertwined, appearances define nature, and values are destroyed. She shows us the dark side of post-capitalist society through those who struggle to live amidst these absurd spectacles.[3]
