Which Han Kang Book You Should Start With

Now that Han Kang has won the Nobel Prize in Literature, readers everywhere might be wondering where to start with her works. In this video, I break down why Human Acts is the perfect starting point for general readers. While The Vegetarian, The White Book, and Greek Lessons are incredible in their own right, Human Acts offers a more accessible entry into Han Kang’s profound storytelling and her style. With its emotional depth and historical grounding in the Gwangju Uprising, this novel connects readers to the themes of trauma, resilience, and humanity, making it an ideal first read.
