Publishing Industry Full of Consolation and Sympathy in the Post-COVID-19 Era

Topic   Publishing Industry Full of Consolation andSympathy in the Post-COVID-19 Era   2022.07.04   “Since my mother was not loved, I believed she would love more. Since my mother did not have anything, I thought she would fill someone’s heart more than others. I sincerely hope the story of this insignificant individual can give a sense of comfort to someone with a lonely and hungry heart. I was able to find a sense of consolation before others and by a lot. In addition to what I gained, I released my mother’s obituary collection. (Preface written by author Lee Soon-Ja’s daughter)”The above is the preface written to the essay At 60, as I Became a Sage Again (Humanist Publishing Group), released on May 9, 2022. The book is a collection of prose released after the death of the author Lee Soon-Ja, who won non-fiction award in the 7th Maeil Newspaper Senior Literary Awards last year. It may be that this word of consolation by a little known write...

Foreigner Living in Korea’s Pick

One-Liner Quotes   Foreigner Living in Korea’s Pick   2022.07.04   Before coming to Korea for the first time about 5 years ago, I must admit I was not well-acquainted with Korean culture overall. I did see a couple of Korean movies and dramas, and I did become a fan of BTS’ music around the time Hallyu was shyly making its way into my country, Serbia. However, I have never read a single book by a Korean author prior to moving to Korea. The two books I would like to introduce today I thought to be uniquely marked with a deep sense of something specifically ‘Korean’, while at the same time, equally and as deeply reflecting the purest and deepest universal human values, and as such, I believe could evoke true empathy with readers anywhere around the globe. So far, the two books left the greatest, most profound impact on me throughout my years of living in Korea.     When I first typed the word ‘Gwangju’ in the...

On the 100th Anniversary of Children’s Day, How Did the Korean Publishing Industry Spend the Day?

Topic   On the 100th Anniversary of Children’s Day,How Did the Korean Publishing Industry Spend the Day?   2022.06.07   Many say, “The greater discovery than finding a new continent or inventing electricity is coining the concept, children.” Before the concept was recognized, children were merely toys for their parents or tools to use as a means. The discovery of the concept of children is the biggest for Chosun as it did not know the existence of young people. - Bang Jeong-Hwan, A historical study of the Joseon juvenile movement, The Chosun Ilbo, 1929/1/4.   The year 2022 is the 100th anniversary of Children’s Day in Korea. The Children’s Day Declaration, announced by Bang Jeong-Hwan in 1922, is recognized as the world’s first children’s human rights declaration announced even before the Geneva Declaration of the Rights of the Child (the Geneva Declaration) in 1924, which was adopted by the League of Nation...

103-Year-Old Philosopher Kim Hyung-Seok

Special Project   [Korean Scholars ⑥] 103-Year-Old Philosopher Kim Hyung-Seok A Song of Happiness and Hope by a Sage in His 100s   2022.06.07   Living up to 100 years has become common in modern society. We are now preparing for a world in which people live even longer than 100 years. However, a 100-year life might not always be a blessing or joyful experience since how well we spend those years matters as well. This is an overwhelming task since we don’t have any established guidelines on how to prepare for the time when life expectancy exceeds 100. That is probably why we turn to Professor Kim Hyung-Seok, who is leading a successful life in his 100s as an intellectual and a “true grown-up.” Let us explore the inspiring life of Mr. Kim, who is enjoying longevity in his own productive way and teaching us what it is like to lead a happy life as a responsible adult.       A Contemplation on the Journey towards Dying-Wel...

12 Years of Publishing Korean Books in Vietnam

Export Case   12 Years of Publishing Korean Books in Vietnam   2022.06.07   Nha Nam is one of the leading literary book publishing companies in Vietnam, and one of our main goals is to introduce the world's literary works to Vietnamese readers. Since our founding in 2005, Nha Nam has purchased the rights to many works from the UK, France, USA, Germany, Canada, China, and Japan and accomplished certain achievements. However, at the time, although we were keen to publish Korean books, we had quite a few difficulties finding books and contacting Korean copyright owners. Moreover, we did not have much information about Korean literature, nor did we have editors who could read and translate Korean. We could only refer to information through other languages such as English, French or Chinese. At that time, although not many Korean literary books were published, Korean dramas were widely known in Vietnam, so we decided to experiment with the book that had b...
