Sung-il Kim was born in Seoul in 1974. Despite his lifelong dream of writing fiction, he only got around to it in his forties. He writes science fiction, fantasy, Lovecraftian horror, or some blend of those. In South Korea, he is known for Star of Mercia, I Will Go to Earth to See You, and “The Knight of La Mancha,” the last of which earned him an Excellence Award in SF Awards 2018. He spends most of his time in his downtown Seoul apartment, with his wife and two cats.

Brighter than Scale, Swifter than Flame (2025)
Neon Yang
"Brighter than Scale, Swifter than Flame is a beautiful story of reclaiming one's heritage to arrive at a new, unimagined place. At times exciting and at times measured, it has both a fast pace and deep characters."
