The professor's father had left his family behind in the South during the Korean War and eventually had another family in the North. The story includes the professor's negotiations with the go-between who arranges the meeting, his participation in a tour group (the necessary excuse to travel to the area in China where the meeting takes place), his interaction with other tour members and Koreans living in the area, and finally his meeting with his brother. The story includes different positions on reunification and illuminates many of the reasons that make reunification difficult. In this new translation the author has added a new vignette that does not appear in the original."Weatherhead books on Asia.BrothersKorea (North)FictionFamiliesKorea (North)FictionKorean War, 1950-1953FictionBrothersFamiliesKorean War, 1950-1953895.73/4Yi Mun-yŏl1948-636842Fenkl Heinz Insu1960-Chang YoosupMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910809317203321Meeting with my brother3919890UNINA
