When Korean author Baek Se-hee self-published her first book, I Want to Die But I Want to Eat Tteokbokki, she did not expect sales to go through the roof. The book became a cult classic, especially among Korean culture enthusiasts. Now, six years later, she is back with another therapy memoir. The recordings of Baek’s therapy sessions were meant to be a personal guide for her. But the book, which was essentially a transcript of her counselling sessions, became an international bestseller. It resonated deeply with those struggling with anxiety and depression. As Baek continues her battle with dysthymia, she reaches out once more to her readers.
