李晛瑞为朝鲜脱北者、人权维护者,曾只身一人逃离朝鲜,随后引导家人经由中国和老挝逃离。现为国际策略和研究中心年青领袖,拥有韩国外国语大学英文和中文学士学位。因其2013年2月在TED大会演讲而广受瞩目,该演讲到现时为止已获得1600万观看次数。李晛瑞曾为《华尔街日报》、《纽约时报》、LSE Big Ideas 博客和韩国政府统一部撰文。她最𣈱销的著作《拥有七个名字的女孩:一个北韩叛逃者的真实故事》于2015年以英语出版,于22个国家发行。

Hyeonseo Lee is a North Korean defector and human-rights activist who later guided her family to freedom from the country through China and Laos. Ms Lee is a Young Leader at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, has a degree in English and Chinese from Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, and spends much of her time campaigning for North Korean human rights and refugee issues. In February 2013 she gave a TED talk that received an overwhelming and positive response, with 16-million views received to date. Hyeonseo has written for the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, LSE Big Ideas blog, and for the South Korean Ministry of Unification. Her bestselling memoir, The Girl with Seven Names: A North Korean Defector’s Story, was published in English in July 2015, with rights sold for publication around the world in 22 other languages, so far.

金淑姬是一位美籍韩裔女作家。曾潜入朝鲜做卧底的她,向世人揭露了朝鲜独裁统治的可怖真相。其著作《The interpreter》(译员)一经出版便广受赞誉。她曾在朝鲜的精英学校教授英文,并将其在朝鲜骇人的生活经历写入她的新书《Without You, There is No Us》(没有你,就没有我们)。总所周知,朝鲜是一个十分封闭的国家,金淑姬的著作使我们难得一窥这个孤立国家的真实样貌。她在访谈中分享了卧底生活的细节,强权统治下的朝鲜,充满了恐惧,禁锢,与超现实色彩。我们都或多或少听说过朝鲜当局营造的繁荣假象背后百姓真实的生活面貌,而她详尽入微的刻画大大拉近了读者与这个神秘迷人却遥不可及的国度之间的距离。

As for Suki Kim, she is an author with an undercover edge and an incredible story to tell. Having released her widely-acclaimed novel The Interpreter, the Seoul-born, New York-based writer took a new assignment, moving to North Korea to teach English to children of the elite. She then turned her harrowing experiences into a book, Without You, There Is No Us. North Korea is notoriously closed-off, and Suki’s story gives us a rare glimpse into a silenced nation. Her talks share details of her experiences – which are equal-parts chilling, surreal, and captivating – under the watchful eye of the regime.

「Inspector O」(O侦探)系列小说的作者詹姆斯·丘奇,曾供职于西方情报部门多年,并数十次深入朝鲜。撰写全系列共六部小说对他而言是极大的挑战,因为从未有人尝试去写设定于朝鲜背景下的侦探小说。他认为这是一个极大的缺憾,也是刻不容缓的使命。在写作前夕,他意识到将普通的朝鲜人民作为小说角色不够鲜活立体,只能描绘出一个世人对平壤的刻板印象。作品的人物和背景设置必须是真实的,而不应单纯显露出毫无政治隐喻的奴性。作品应更似一幅画,而不是一张照片,其所揭示的本质应远胜过表面的呈现。作者以小说里的主要角色O侦探这一虚构北韩警察的视角,向读者无比详尽的刻画了自己在朝鲜这个神秘国度的所见所闻。

James Church, author of the Inspector O series, served for many years as a Western intelligence officer, and has been in, around, over, and under the Korean Peninsula for decades. He started writing the first of six books as a challenge to himself – since no one had written a detective story set in North Korea, he decided this was a serious hole in the universe that needed to be filled. Early on he realized he couldn’t write the story with the normal two-dimensional North Korean characters in a stereotypical portrayal of Pyongyang. The characters and the setting had to be real, but not slavishly so and without political overtones. It had to be more like a painting than a photograph, with the essence of each if not every single detail. Fortunately for the enterprise, Inspector O – the main character – emerged almost as if he had been perched on Church’s shoulder for years, and in a sense, he had.
