Praise

“This motivational book is a favorite of BTS’s Jin. . . . [Its] messages align with BTS’s consistent encouragement for fans to love themselves and pursue their unique journeys.” —Times Now

“The importance of being true to oneself has been emphasized by thinkers across cultures and time. . . . So why are modern readers yearning to be reminded of this centuries-old lesson? . . . Unlike the words of ancient philosophers, [Kim Suhyun’s] are rooted in everyday life, making them especially powerful to modern readers. . . . The insights the book conveys beneath its lighthearted surface seemingly resonate with people from different backgrounds.” —South China Morning Post

“Utterly charming.” —KDAF-TV CW33

“A collection of heartfelt advice to live yourself as you. This self-help book became extensively popular after Jungkook recommended it to the Army.” —Jagran

“This is a great book for anyone who feels as though they’ve been wallowing in sorrow enough or for anyone who needs a soft push to get going again. I Decided to Live as Me is what’ll help, and if you’re looking for a light-reading turnaround, you can’t find much better. . . . You’ll come away from your session with it refreshed, empowered, and clearer minded.” —The Guam Daily Post

I Decided to Live as Me really tries to help—and succeeds. . . . The author’s honesty holds your attention. It’s easy to empathize as she describes her own shortcomings and vulnerabilities because they are our own as well. . . . Kim’s charming and simple illustrations have a way of sticking with you. . . . The problems discussed are universal concerns in the age of information and social media. . . . One wonders if [this book] should be considered essential reading for government social welfare policymakers! . . . Accomplished translator Anton Hur . . . has done an excellent job in maintaining the spirit of the writing which made the original Korean version a bestseller. . . . I enjoyed this book. I feel I learned something, and it encouraged me to learn more and live better.” —Arlo Matisz, The Korea Times

“We live in a highly anxious world, and I can personally attest that this book has helped me in dealing with stress, social anxiety and existential dread—it is comforting, invigorating, and liberating, all at the same time.” —Anton Hur, translator of I Decided to Live as Me
