Who Is Hiding in the Classics?

The characters introduced in this book are neither heroes who saved the world nor famous government officials. They are not legendary beauties or wealthy nobles either. Gisaeng (courtesans), beggars, widows, eunuchs, shamans... these are the protagonists of this book. They are people who were looked down upon, shunned, and forgotten in history. In ten classic stories we didn't know, the voices of minorities don't remain as 'the weak' but transcend worldly rules and passionately expose the injustice of social prejudice, impressing readers. This book presents a new perspective on classics.
