Export Status of Korean Webnovels and Webtoons

Black Ocean, Lee Young-ju, the 2022 Lucien Stryk Asian Translation Prize for Cold Candies 2023.02.20 The idea for doing Moon Country, the contemporary Korean poetry series at Black Ocean, started around the time Janaka Stucky, the publisher, came to Korea for a series of readings and literary events in 2017.

A goal we have is that we want these books to challenge national literature discourses, we want to invite readers to inhabit these books...
