Born in South Korea, Kim is the only writer to have lived undercover in the North Korean totalitarian dictatorship, which she did in 2011, spending six months in Pyongyang during the waning days of Kim Jong-il’s rule. She has reported firsthand on North Korea since 2002 and contributed groundbreaking reporting on the secretive country for publications including Harper’s, New Republic, New Yorker, and New York Review of Books.
