Hwang was born while Korea was under Japanese colonial rule in Taedong County, South Pyongan, in modern-day North Korea.
Hwang Sunwon made his literary debut as a middle school student with the publication in 1931 of his poems “My Dream” (Naui kkum) and “Fear Not, My Son” (Adeura museowo malla) in Eastern Light (Donggwang).[1] Hwang graduated from Waseda University in Japan with a degree in English.
During his time at Waseda he founded a theater group called Tokyo Students’ Group for the Arts (Donggyeong haksaeng yesuljwa), along with fellow students Lee Haerang and Kim Dongwon.[1&#
