Old Wrestler by Jeon Sung-Tae

A retired wrestler struggles with amnesia and anxiety after he is invited to return to his home town for an event. Back in once-familiar surroundings, he wrestles to make sense of things as he is confronted by faces, scenes and smells recalled from a celebrated past.
Jeon Sung-tae was born in 1969 in South Korea. He studied creative writing at Chung-Ang University and started his career in 1994 by winning the Silcheonmunhak New Writer’s Award. His published works include the short-story collections Second Self-Portrait (2015), Wolves (2009), Over The Border (2004), and Burying Incense (1999); the novel The Female Barber (2005); and the book of essays Big Brothers of the World (2015).
