Synopsis "Molka"

From the award-winning author of The Eyes Are the Best Part, praised by The New York Times Book Review as “violent, smart, gruesome and wildly original,” a provocative journey into a perilous world of voyeurism, scandal, female rage, and vengeance . . . pursued with a very sharp kitchen knife.

Molka: an abbreviation of molrae-kamera, a “sneaky camera” hidden to capture covert images and videos for voyeurs.

In an unassuming Seoul workplace, IT technician Junyoung’s network reaches throughout the entire building. He sees every entrance. Every lobby. Every bathroom. The women in this building may be cold and dismissive, but he can always pull up his favorite images of them and remember who holds the real power. Until one, Dahye, sets herself apart from the rest.

Dahye, ever the romantic, yearns to be cherished after years of living in the shadow of her perfect older sister, who tragically drowned years ago. Only her boyfriend seems to appreciate Dahye. He’s rich, handsome, and generous—and she’d do anything to hold on to the happiness he brings her.

But when a hidden camera scandal rocks the city’s elites, Dahye’s dreams of a fairy-tale romance twist into a grotesque nightmare. Her boyfriend abandons her. Her parents reject her. Her grip on reality begins to shatter as visions of her dead sister suddenly appear. And as Junyoung’s interest in Dahye turns to obsession, and the truths of their troubled lives are revealed, Dahye must go to extreme lengths to bring the truth to light . . .

Monika Kim es una escritora coreano-estadounidense contemporánea, licenciada en Comunicación por la Universidad de California-Davis y residente en Los Ángeles. Antes de su incursión literaria, ha desarrollado su carrera profesional en el ámbito medioambiental, lo que contrasta con el tono oscuro y visceral de su narrativa. Su debut, Los ojos son la mejor parte (2025), la posiciona rápidamente como una voz emergente dentro del thriller psicológico y el terror contemporáneo.

La novela combina crítica social, horror corporal y tensiones familiares, siguiendo a una joven atrapada en un entorno opresivo que deriva hacia una obsesión perturbadora. La obra ha sido destacada por medios como TIME y The New York Times como una de las más relevantes del año, consolidando a Kim como una autora a seguir. Su estilo se caracteriza por una prosa directa, inquietante y sensorial, donde lo cotidiano se deforma hasta volverse profundamente incómodo —y ahí está precisamente su gracia.
