It was great to be able to see the history of Korean women's golf, which has developed dramatically, at a glance. It reminded me of Se-ri Pak's fighting spirit during difficult times, and it is a good book that vividly portrays the "Se-ri Kids" active on the world stage. The arduous and regrettable behind-the-scenes stories of their struggles that we were unaware of were even more impressive.
Seong Ho-jun: From barefoot fighting spirit to the Grand Slam
The Great Challenge of Korean Women's Golf: *From Barefoot Fighting Spirit to the Grand Slam*. This book records the living reality of the LPGA, based on what Sung Ho-june, a leading golf journalist in Korea with the most extensive and in-depth coverage of the sport, actually saw and heard while covering the tour in the United States for a year starting in 2012. It captures the vivid voices of Korean professional female golfers at the center of the LPGA Tour, including Park In-bee, Choi Na-yeon, Kim In-kyung, Choi Un-jeong, and Lydia Ko. It faithfully conveys the players' seemingly insurmountable slumps, scenes of arduous rehabilitation and recovery, the invisible rivalry and deep friendships that exist among them, and their subtle emotions.
