'Let's dive into this surreal world" (KBS World Radio)
A collection of short stories now adapted into movies.
Don't try to escape this ghost neighborhood, don't waste your energy tearing off that plant, and don't even think about catching Korea's most elusive shaman: you just can't shake off death. So let this fictional Seoul claim your soul.

Auteur et concepteur né à Paris en 1967, Stéphane Mot privilégie les formats courts et décalés pour ses chroniques comme pour la fiction. Avant 'Seoul Villages', sa première collection consacrée à Séoul, il a concocté une série de bouchées au goût étranges ('dragédies') et un hommage aux légendes du football n'ayant pas eu la chance d'exister ('La Ligue des Oubliés'). Cet observateur de la société coréenne intervient dans de nombreux médias internationaux ainsi que dans son blog SeoulVillage.com, fondé en 2007.
Stéphane et Séoul se hantent mutuellement depuis 1991.
