I immediately browsed it. Looking at the Interview menu, I searched particularly for Ms. Hwang Sun-mi, the author of The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly (SAKYEJUL), the only Korean literature book I have read so far. In her interview, she said, “I hope they think reading a book is like practicing a certain wish.” What she uttered is so true and meaningful because after reading The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly, I was in deep thought and felt a sense of achievement.

The Growth of South Korea's 'Genre Literature' Minumsa Publishing Group's Imprint "Golden Bough" Specializing in Genre Literature   2017.8.18   Genre literature refers to novels that deal with a number of subjects, like horror, science fiction, chivalry, fear, mystery, fantasy and romance. Not only can they be read in physical books but in e-books and online series as well, making it easy for these genres to secure a fan base. In the case of online novels, it has acted as a driving force for genre literature and transformed into a gateway for budding novelists. Perhaps this is the reason why these works show much variety in subject matter and entertain readers with their fresh, creative content that sometimes throws messages at society. This month's 'Korea publisher' corner has sought out two publishers specializing in genre literature and spoke to them about the now and future of Korea's genre literature.   A series of overseas genre...

But this is not the only consequence: After the tsunami, animal diseases regularly broke out, which eventually led to the extinction of all livestock and cattle. Scientists then created a new animal called “the thing,” whose meat is unpalatable...
