AsemconnectVietnam -  A Vietnam-Republic of Korea (RoK) literature exchange was held in Ho Chi Minh City on November 18, giving an insight into the literatures of the two nations.

The exchange saw the attendance of Vietnamese writer Do Tien Thuy with a novel titled “Con chim Joong bay tu A den Z” (Bird Joong flies from A to Z) and her RoK colleague Eun HeeKyung, the author of “A Gift from a Bird.” The writers shared their views on the life, especially in the post-war time. 

Speaking at the exchange, Eun HeeKyung said RoK readers have found it hard to access the Vietnamese literature as there are only few Vietnamese literal works are translated into Korean. 

The writers expressed their hope that the Vietnamese and RoK literal sectors will come closer to each other in the time ahead through experience exchange.
