Flowers of the Orient – Bringing Korean Gems to Polish Readers

Export Case   Flowers of the Orient– Bringing Korean Gems to Polish Readers   2023.05.02   Sixteen years ago, immediately after a fellow Korean Philology student and good friend, Edyta Matejko-Paszkowska, and I decided to establish a publishing house that was centered around Korean literature, people were perplexed. ‘Why?’ they asked. Few believed it was a great idea at the time, and some attitudes could now be considered mocking. However, now that the Korean wave (Hallyu) has reached Poland, they are no longer laughing. The popularity of Korean cuisine, language, dramas, and K-pop has extended to Korean literature.Up until around 2007, a total of seventeen titles of what could be classed as modern or classical literature had been translated from Korean into Polish - extremely low compared to the likes of Japan or China, which both ran into the hundreds. Several key factors explain why Korean literature translations weren’t widespread. Firstly...

The Uncanny Convenience Store’s Magical Journey in Taiwan

Export Case   The Uncanny Convenience Store’s Magical Journey in Taiwan   2023.04.03   Popular Korean novel Uncanny Convenience Store (Namu Bench) has experienced a very magical journey in Taiwan. Before publishing the book in Taiwan, Solo Press (寂寞出版社) had published Please Look After Mom (Changbi) with a relatively serious and heavy topic as well as Dallergut Dream Department Store (Sam & Parkers), a bestselling novel in Korea.   * K-Book Trends Vol. 46 – Go to the article about Dallergut Dream Department Store’s successful import into Taiwan   Unlike Please Look After Mom, the two books, Dallergut Dream Department Store and Uncanny Convenience Store, are relatively simply-written, talking about things close to our daily lives.

Export Status of Korean Webnovels and Webtoons

Topic   Export Status of Korean Webnovels and Webtoons   2023.03.13   Status of Korean webnovel and webtoon market   Korea’s webnovel and webtoon market has been growing rapidly, representing the “K-content” category. The business has been expanding into other countries as well, such as other Asian countries and the US. Derivative works based on webnovels and webtoons are generating income through various channels. As can be seen in the success of the recently-aired drama “Reborn Rich,” IPs (intellectual property) based on publishing content such as webnovels and webtoons are expanding into other industries such as drama, film, animation, and games, securing the original content with relatively less investment. According to the research conducted by the Publication Industry Promotion Agency of Korea (KPIPA) and the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA), the size of the webnovel market grew from 741.5 billion won in 2020 to 1.85 tril...

Korean Books Published by Haru Publisher Indonesia

Export Case   Korean Books Published by Haru Publisher Indonesia   2023.03.13   Twelve years ago, there were only a few translated Korean books in Indonesia. Most of them were literature books and project books (Project books are usually published with the budget from the author/institution (sometimes it's 50:50 with the publishers, depending on the agreement). It's not only textbooks/study books, but every book needed by the organization and they reach out to the publisher asking to publish their books.) from certain institutions, for example, collections of poetry or collections of literary studies. So Haru Publisher, which was founded in 2011, saw this as an opportunity, besides that the editors had a great interest in Korean culture.Our first book, So, I Married an Antifan (Terrace Books), was published in 2012. A few months before this book was published, we started promoting it on social media. We partnered up with communities to promote thi...
