Special Project   [Korean Scholars ④] Professor Lim Jie-Hyun’s Realistic andReflective View on Korean History The New Paradigm is a Nation-state Developing into a Desirable Society   2022.04.04   History does not stop progressing.

It is natural for the historical paradigm to become diverse and change as it applies different judgments and value standards. Therefore, the view on history needs to progress in the right direction while embracing diversity and maintaining its realistic attitude.

Topic   The Comeback of Best-selling Books is Thanks to Youtube   2022.03.07   “Try this.”It’s not some random street vendor tempting tourists to try Dalgona using Squid Game’s popularity. Winter Bookstore, one of the most popular BookTubers (Book + Youtuber) with 230K subscribers, posted a video introducing a book. Her influence is truly colossal.The book she introduced was Why Fish Don’t Exist, a non-fiction book written by US science journalist Lulu Miller. Let’s go back to the starting point to see how it became popular. The book was published on December 17, 2021, and it did not gain much popularity in Korea at first.
