Announcing the tour of Crying in H Mart, Zauner wrote on Twitter:
“Crying in H Mart is finally out in paperback on March 28th, and I’ll be heading out on my first book tour to celebrate! Very excited to roll up to your city for the first time with a tote bag and a book instead of a giant trailer of gear. ”
She also held limited in-person pop-ups for the memoir, which was a full virtual book tour in 2021. This is for her debut book, which was published on April 20, 2021, by Alfred A. Knopf. The memoir is an extension of the musician's essay of the same name, which was published in The New Yorker on August 20, 2018.
Meanwhile, Zauner has a packed schedule before her book tour as she will be seen participating in The Piano Recital at NYC's Carnegie Hall on February 25 with Kevin Morby, Eric D Johnson, Courtney Marie Andrews, Craig Finn, Uwade, Phil Cook, and Johanna Samuels.
