Artificial Intelligence (AI) Use Cases in the Korean Publishing Market

Topic   [Publishing & AI] Artificial Intelligence (AI) Use Casesin the Korean Publishing Market   2023.12.04   At the 75th Frankfurt Book Fair in Germany this past October, a program dedicated to artificial intelligence (AI) was the center of attention. Stakeholders in the publishing industry, including writers, publishers, bookstores, and readers, have entered an era where books are being created and used in a completely different way. AI is shaking up the entire publishing industry. In particular, generative AI, such as ChatGPT and Midjourney, is rapidly being adopted in the process of writing and distributing books. At the same time, the industry is also facing new challenges, such as the need to prevent inappropriate use of AI.

A Special Convenience Store that Mesmerized Japanese Readers!

Export Case   A Special Convenience Store that Mesmerized Japanese Readers! The import case of Uncanny Convenience Store published by Shogakukan in Japan   2023.10.04   It was two years ago, in the fall of 2021, when I first heard about Uncanny Convenience Store (Namu Bench) through an email from a Japanese agent. At that point, the book had already gone through 15 printings in Korea, sold close to 100,000 copies, and had been adapted for drama and theater, which was enough to pique my interest. But it was the title and content of the novel that made me even more intrigued. It’s a “convenience store,” but inconvenient? What a humorous title! My interest in the book grew further. And the story of a tall, mysterious man with no memory becoming a convenience store clerk, and influencing the lives of those around him, was fascinating. As convenience stores are an integral part of modern life in Japan, we knew that this story would appeal to the Japanese public. Th...
