In the Land of Kim has been selected for the June 2025 edition of Publishers Weekly Select, among independent books from across the world.

Publishers Weekly has been one of the industry’s most established voices since the 19th century, and being included in this curated list is a quiet but meaningful moment of recognition. It comes from the professional world of books — and that matters.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the book’s journey so far. And a special thanks to PW for spotlighting stories that don’t always fit the mold, but still find their way.
