South Korea has always fascinated me and earlier this year I became deeply interested in their culture, food and language. In collaborating with Adina of Let's Talk About Books, she introduced me to the Korean Dramas, which I've become super obsessed with but due to school I haven't gotten a chance to watch any new show.... at all... like nothing at all!
I recently came across this book series called Gilded Trilogy written by Christina Farley. It's three books called Gilded, Silvern and Brazen that is about a Korean-American teen with a family curse that awakens when her father decides to move back to Seoul, South Korea.
She battles an evil demigod, Haemosu, who wants to take her soul and make her his princess. The legend of Haemosu is an actual Korean myth. The main character was pretty awesome since she had learned the art of tae kwon do and archery.
These books definitely added to my hopes of visiting South Korea soon. I recommended these books to Adina who also read them and did a review on them. You can head over to her channel and check it out.
