(Korean) 이미 타계 16년이 되던 2002년에 모아서 한차례 책을 출간했었다. 이번 것은 개정증보판 제목을 <당신이 유명한 건축가 김수근입니까>로 달았다.....말년의 그를 만난 일본 사진작가 무라이 오사무의 회고는 가슴을 찡하게 울린다..... 책 표지 사진은 오사무씨가 찍은 것이다. 1985년 일본 교토통신사 의뢰로 완성 직전의 잠실올림픽경기장을 배경으로 사진을 부탁했는데 병중의 김수근이 쾌히 응한 것이다.

There was already a book on Kim Swoo Geun published in 2002, 16 years after he past away. The title of the revised and expanded edition is <Are you the famous Kim Swoo Geun?>....The recollection of a Japanese photographer, Murai Osamu, who met him in the late period of his life touched my heart....The book cover was taken in 1985 by Mr. Osamu as a commission by Kyodo News. He asked Kim Swoo Geun to be taken a picture of him against the nearly finishing Jamsil Olympic Stadium. Although his health was grave, Kim was pleased to accept it.
