노벨문학상을 받은 미국 여성, 펄 벅이 평생을 묻은 곳은 한국이었습니다

There was a woman born in the United States in 1892 and raised in China. The loneliness of not fully belonging anywhere during her childhood kept her hands moving throughout her life. Pearl Buck, the first American female writer to win both the Nobel Prize in Literature and the Pulitzer Prize for *The Good Earth*. However, her true life began not with a pen, but with holding small hands. After her first visit to Korea in 1960, the place she reached after walking her entire life was a small hill in Bucheon. Where did she place most of her Nobel Prize money and royalties, and all of her last 13 years? In the spring of 1973, a single photograph left by her bedside quietly reveals the answer.
