K-BOOK Import Case in Germany

Export Case   K-BOOK Import Case in Germany The start of a new story   2022.04.04   In 2017, when a colleague at our publishing house came across the title The Things You Can Only See When You Slow Down (Suo Books) by Haemin Sunim and suggested we buy the German rights, no one thought that this would be the beginning of a new era. Of course, we assumed that the book would sell well – why else would we want to publish it? Nevertheless, we were surprised how quickly the first edition sold out. In the meantime, over 40,000 copies have crossed the counter and the 7th edition has just been printed. One reason for the great success in Germany was certainly Haemin Sunim's reading tour, which we organised in 2018, as well as his activity on social media, where he has millions of followers. Another is that Korean culture has become increasingly visible in Europe in recent years and interest in Korean literature has also grown in this country.   ...

Successful Import Case of Korean Literature in Japan

Export Case   Successful Import Case of Korean Literature in Japan Publishing status of translated Korean literature   2022.03.07   Hayakawa Publishing has been translating and publishing original novels of Korean dramas that succeeded in Japan since the mid-2000s. For example, we published Physician Janggeum (Greenboat Magics) by Kim Sang-Hyeon in 2004 and Seodongyo (Knowledge Smith) by Jung Jae-In and Kim Young-Hyun in 2006. We have been selling novels of successful Korean history and romance dramas in Japan to Japanese K-drama fans.Then, the mega-hit of Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982 (Minumsa Publishing) by Cho Nam-Joo in 2018, and Almonds (Changbi Publishers) of Sohn Won-Pyung in 2019 worked as a game-changer in the overseas literature market in Japan, transforming and expanding it. These two books were also massively popular in Korea and highly appraised, with fun storylines. So, the reason behind their popularity in Japan can be largely put to two a...

Special Project   [Korean Scholars ➁] Deep Insights into the World from the Great ScholarLee O-Young’s Viewpoint A creative life led by the trinity of reading, writing, and thinking   2022.02.14   A well-educated individual is called a scholar. Today's intellectual, professor Lee O-Young is a representative figure as a scholar.

When authoritarianism was at its peak, he harshly criticized peers who idolized existing literary circles in a publication celebration. His criticism was written as an article Destruction of an idol and was published on a pa...

China Export Case

Export Case   China Export Case Online advertisement and strong sales of children's books during the pandemic   2022.02.14   Recently, I visited an exhibition held in the National Fold Museum of Korea on “Our Lives Beyond Epidemics.” From the period of the Three States, Goryeo, the Joseon Dynasty, to the modern and present-day, epidemics have always been a part of Korean history. Diseases that emerged from wars, changes in the natural environment, or foreign sources have made life miserable for people. Maybe it was our ancestors' persistence to get over hardships that led us to live a life today, accumulating all the knowledge on overcoming challenges. Even in the present day, human beings defeated pandemics several times. However, the recent one caused by COVID-19 neutralized our pride in cutting-edge science and technology. The pandemic has lingered for more than three years now, and this may be the sign that it is time for us to coexist with diseases.For the...
