Love as a Foreign Language

Edition excerpt from Love as a Foreign Language Deluxe Anniversary Edition (2026): Now celebrating its 20th anniversary, read J. Torres and Eric Kim’s seminal Love as a Foreign Language—collected from start to finish for the first time in one deluxe hardcover edition, remastered with new colors and letters, and featuring brand-new cover art and exclusive bonus content. Joel hates Korea. When he agreed to teach there in an effort to pay off his student loans faster, he had no idea how much he’d hate it. He can't wait to go back home to Canada and return to normal life. His year-long contract is almost over and then he'll finally be free. But Joel's life is about to go from dark dreams to cotton-candy kisses, and it's all because of Hana, the new school secretary. Maybe this job isn’t so bad with his dream girl beside him. (If he works up the nerve to talk to her, that is.) The very sight of Hana sends Joel flying straight to cloud nine, but won't another year in Korea send him crashing back down? Traveling back to Seoul in the 2000s, and perfect for fans of K-drama romcoms, fans old and new can relive Joel and Hana’s love story—now in color!
