Bar Luna at Casa Luna

“What do you do when you are under an oppression that is so powerful and ubiquitous that it feels like an inevitability? History has many people who rose against such forces, heedless of the insurmountable odds. Those are the heroes that I sought to recreate, except with an epic fantasy fighting chance—as well as mummified sorcerers and gigantic war machines.” In this session, South Korean award-winning author, Sung-il Kim, shares insights from his dazzling fantasy trilogy of Blood of the Old Kings, featuring powerful characters in a world unlike any we’ve seen before.

“Apakah yang akan Anda lakukan apabila Anda hidup di bawah sebuah penindasan yang begitu berkuasa dan luas pengaruhnya, sampai-sampai penindasan ini terasa seolah-olah tak terelakkan? Sejarah memiliki banyak sekali sosok yang bangkit melawan kekuatan-kekuatan menindas ini, meskipun dihadang oleh berbagai rintangan yang tampak mustahil dilalui. Mereka adalah para palawan yang ingin saya reka ulang, bedanya terletak pada kisah-kisah pergulatan fantasi yang epik–ditemani para penyihir yang telah menjelma mumi dan mesin perang gigantis.” Dalam sesi ini, penulis Korea Selatan pemenang penghargaan, Sung-il Kim, membagikan berbagai pelajaran yang dipetik dari trilogi fantasinya yang begitu memikat, Blood of the Old Kings, menampilkan tokoh-tokoh yang sangat kuat dalam sebuah dunia yang belum pernah kita lihat sebelumnya.
