živi v: Seoul, Južna Koreja

Kim Yideum, born in 1969 in Jinju, South Korea, studied German literature and earned a doctorate in Korean literature at Gyeongsang National University. She writes polyphonic, wild, decidedly feminist poetry teeming with quirky personnel and multiple figures, destroying world orders with their unwieldy language. With eroticism, sarcasm and dissonance, with dirty sentences and a maximum of lyrical energy, she subverts social norms and exposes the encrusted structures of patriarchy, not only in Korea.
