Best Sellers   3rd Week, January 2022 Bestseller Trends in the Four Biggest Online Bookstores in Korea   2022.02.14   With the presidential election in March coming up, political and social books have been gaining much attention in Korean society since the first day of the new year. People’s heightened interest and expectations – or perhaps concerns – about the candidates seem to be reflected in the books. For example, Yoon Seok-Youl X File, which topped the bestsellers’ list of four major bookstores’ online markets, is a book that verifies candidate Yoon based on factual grounds. As a result, it has been at the center of readers’ attention, ranking first, even though the book is scheduled to be published in the third week of January. Also, Longing Doesn’t Happen to Anyone, an autobiography of former president Park Geun-Hye, and Goodbye, Lee Jae-Myung, a book about presidential candidate Lee Jae-Myung, joined the top 10 bestsellers.Meanwhile, the script bo...

Writer Minha

Korean Authors   Writer Minha May you find strength and encouragement through picture books   2024.02.19   The 2023 Korea Picture Book Award chose K-picture books that will represent Korea to the world. Among the many winners, my eyes were drawn to a book that showed off unique ideas with a distinctly Korean touch. The book A Round of Tightrope Walking (Gloyeon) won the grand prize in the non-fiction category. As we read A Round of Tightrope Walking, which incorporates various elements of picture books and realistically depicts tightrope walking, we couldn’t help but smile as we imagined how excited children would be to read this book. Minha, the writer, creates a different kind of fun that goes far beyond the limits of books and paper. And since Minha says that picture books are like a shelter for her, we think her readers can also imagine and rest as much as they want through her books. Following is an interview with Minha, who continues to wri...

Observing the Stature of K-Literature Through Foreign Literary Awards

Topic   Observing the Stature of K-Literature Through Foreign Literary Awards   2021.10.05   Korean literature was first introduced to foreign countries in the late 19th century. However, it wasn’t until after works of Korean literature started receiving literary awards abroad that they were translated and published full-scale in foreign countries, attracting foreign readers and grabbing the interest of major publishers and publishing agencies in foreign countries.Some awards have been given to works of Korean literature since the early 2000s, but ever since Please Look After Mom by Shin Kyung-Sook received the Man Asian Literary Prize, works of Korean literature have continuously been winning literary prizes, and the number of those prizes have been increasing as well. Since 2012, when Castella by Park Min-Gyu received the Japan Translation Award in 2015, and The Vegetarian by Han Gang was the winner of the Man Booker International Prize in 2016, interest in Korean li...

Writer Kwon Jung-Min

Korean Authors   Writer Kwon Jung-Min “Picturing” an Ordinary Scene with a Fresh Perspective   2024.01.02   Unlike novels, which use words to create a picture in the reader’s mind, picture books allow the reader to imagine the story using only “pictures.” If you are a reader who needs a break from reading and watching in the midst of flashy digital visual media, a picture book can be a shelter. Kwon Jung-Min finds new aspects in familiar scenes in everyday life and captures the hidden aspects of human beings in a fresh way through the art of drawing. Following is an interview with Kwon, who practices looking into herself through picture books.       It’s a pleasure to have you with us on K-Book Trends. Could you please briefly introduce yourself to our readers?   Hi, I’m Kwon Jung-Min, a picture book writer. Picture books speak a different language and follow a different logic than normal books. When you feel ...
