Alex | 2736 comments From what I understand, when a book in Korean has a title in english, this is put in square brackets. Do such books on GR retain these brackets?
Example: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

I would personally think not, but just to be certain. Also, in the case of that particular book, I'm not sure if there's further information that should be added or not.

Actually, the title should be in the language on the cover. Transliteration (optional) can go in brackets.

In this particular case, the cover also has the title in English, so I put that on the title line as well.
