Our Story
Gooseapple Books is a small business founded by Katarina Kettle and Chelsea Guerra in Houston, Texas. As long-time Korean learners ourselves, we know how difficult it is to find great material for intermediate and advanced learners. We tried to find books for Korean language learners based around prompts - and discovered they did not (yet) exist.
​
So we teamed up with Yujin Kim to help bring our ideas to life.
As a Korean native living in the United States, Yujin was very excited to help those learning Korean and contributed her invaluable knowledge of Korean language and culture.
