Suro

The First King of Gaya

By Lee Hye-sook; Illustrated by Kim Dong-sung; Translated by Christian J. Park
Seoul Selection, Seoul Selection USA, Inc.

The book is based on an original story from the “Samgukyusa (Memoirs of the Three Kingdoms)” by Iryeon.

The beautifully illustrated “Suro” tells the tale of King Suro, the legendary founder of Geumgwan Gaya, the ruling city-state of the ancient Gaya Confederation. All details of the story have been proofread and edited by the Academy of Korean Studies, and the authenticity of the story is guaranteed. This book also includes a brief section introducing South Korea, which can help foreigners develop a better understanding of Korea.
