A Small Revolution by Jimin Han is a powerful literary novel about a Korean American woman caught between two worlds as political upheaval in South Korea forces her to confront her past and her identity.
Yoona is living a carefully constructed life in America, far from the turmoil of her homeland. But when student protests erupt in South Korea in 1987, demanding democracy and freedom, Yoona can no longer ignore the pull of her past. As she watches the revolution unfold from afar, she's forced to reckon with the choices she made, the family she left behind, and the person she's become.
Through Yoona's journey, Jimin Han explores themes of identity, belonging, political awakening, and the immigrant experience. This is a story about finding your voice, confronting your history, and understanding that sometimes the smallest acts of courage can spark the biggest changes.
