Writer of the Year Award

Writer of the Year Award The first fruits of the rookie authors of this year   2020.02.03     If overseas publishers have one yardstick that they choose to adopt when they encounter Korean authors and works, it is whether the work received a literary award in Korea.

Special Project of the webzine K-Book Trends introduces each of the unique literary awards in Korea. This part answers questions from overseas readers about the “K-Book Award”, by providing information on the authority, cha...
