Author Han Kang attended the Pony Chung Innovation Awards ceremony as her first official event since winning the Nobel Prize in Literature.
At the award ceremony, writer Han Kang expressed his gratitude to readers, saying, "I was particularly moved that many people were happy to win the Nobel Prize in Literature as if it were their work."
I'll listen to it myself.
[Han Kang / Novelist: When I was just notified of the award by the Nobel Committee, I didn't actually feel realistic, so I just wanted to talk calmly. When I hung up the phone and checked the media reports, it was only then that I felt a sense of reality. I was very happy and grateful, so I quietly celebrated myself that night. Since then, many people have congratulated me sincerely. I think the past week, when so many people were happy like their own, will be remembered as a special emotion to me.
