Country forums / North-East Asia / South Korea

Hello I am looking for a book called "I'm Monique, From Pyongyang". About this one lady and her siblings from Equitorial Guinea growing up in North Korea.

More on it here.... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2442059/Monique-Macias-Daughter-African-dictator-tells-life-growing-North-Korea.html

Apparently the book was published in South Korea. I couldn't find any links to purchasing the book or the publisher in English and wanted to see if someone could help me find site to purchase the book and the publisher's website Korean. Thanks in advance for your help!

It's a book published IN KOREAN.

The link above sends you to one of the biggest online booksellers in South Korea. As you should be able to confirm from other media reports regarding the book, the original text was written in Korean by Ms. Marcias.

Thanks Jake! Questions. Does the publisher of this book have a website if you know? I wanted to email them and see if they are working on an english translation. Also on this site link you sent me you can order the paper version of the book right? Thanks.

YES24.com is selling both paperback and e-book of the book in question, assuming you can set up your account through Korean interface. Overseas shipping is also offered.
