Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The million-copy Korean phenomenon on how to find the strength to be yourself.
As seen being read by BTS's Jungkook on
Bon Voyage, the hit reality TV show following K-pop sensation BTS!

Don’t be kind to those who aren’t kind to you.
Remember that no one lives a perfect life.
Don’t be swayed by what others say.
Don’t try too hard to get along with everyone.


As soon as Kim Suhyun graduated into the adult world, she faced a harsh reality. Everywhere she looked people stepped on each other to get ahead, obsessed over money, and judged others based on the unrealistic standards they saw on social media. It seemed impossible not to compare herself to others and feel that she was ever good enough.

With words of comfort, Kim Suhyun will inspire you on your own journey of self-love, self-acceptance and self-compassion. Blending self-help and memoir, I Decided to Live as Me will help you free yourself from the pressures of living up to other people’s expectations and focus on what truly matters: living not for anyone else, but for yourself.
