French writer Werber to appear on Korean radio show

French science-fiction writer Bernard Werber will appear on a Korean radio show, according to a press release by broadcaster MBC.

Werber recently visited Korea to celebrate the success of his book "Us, Gods", which sold one million copies in Korea, and dropped by popular radio show "Bae Chul-soo's Music Camp" to talk about his books and music.

He said that he believes artists should try to satisfy all five senses of the audience and that is the reason he tells readers about the music he listens to while writing his books.

The 47-year-old writer has written numerous science-fiction bestsellers including "Empire of the Ants", "The Ultimate Secret" and "The Tree of Possibles".

Being the son of a pianist mother, Werber, who enjoys playing the piano and guitar, also played a short piano medley of movie soundtracks during the show.

Werber's guest appearance on "Music Camp" will air on Friday, from 7 to 8 p.m.

"Music Camp" is a twenty-year-running radio show which is hosted by former singer Bae Chul-soo. It airs on MBC FM4U 91.9MHz every evening starting at 6 p.m.
