This debut book of poetry treats translation as play, performance, and embodied sound. Across seven interlinked sections, Stine An stages a fabulated K-pop universe, complete with boy band LIL BANG and girl group The Pink Blossoms, alongside lyric poems and prose meditations that code-switch between Korean and English. The book situates K-pop as both pleasure engine and cultural archive, asking how language survives colonial history, migration, and spectacle without resolving into easy consumption.

Join us for a poetry reading for the closing reception of Suki Seokyeong Kang: Our Spring | 12 March – 25 April 2026 featuring Stine An, Yoo Heekyung, Hua Xi, and Paloma Yannakakis. Organized by Soje.

Across Languages: New Voices in Korean Poetry brings together acclaimed South Korean poets Lee Jenny, Yoo Heekyung, Oh Eun, and Shin Hae-uk with award-winning literary translators Archana Madhavan and Stine An, for a Korean–English bilingual reading and conversation to share the dynamism and innovations of language in Korean poetry culture.

Come experience the poetry of two contemporary Korean poets in this bilingual reading: Lee Jenny, who has pushed Korean poetry to new horizons by shaping waves of language into poetic, auditory rhythms that go beyond meaning; and Yoo Heekyung who is well known for revealing the strangeness of the world through the unfamiliar feelings and sensations found in our daily lives.
