Export Case   Enjoy the Taste and Scent of Korea With Genre Literature   2024.01.02   February 11, 2024, will mark exactly 30 years since Korean writer Djuna uploaded his first short story to an online SF community on the PC communication service “HiTEL.” The story was titled A Butterfly that Traveled Back in Time, and it was Djuna’s first official release.

Time to Dive Into Korean History

One-Liner Quotes   Time to Dive Into Korean History Lawyer’s Pick   2024.01.02   Jung Hye-Jin is a Korean lawyer, who wrote the books May It Please the Court (Mirae Books) and When Names Become Law (Dongnyok Publishers).   Just thinking about Korea’s evolved reputation on the international scene makes me giddy. When I first went to the US over 30 years ago, and when I lived in the UK 20 years ago to study, one of the common phrases I heard was, “Where are you from, China or Japan?” Korea is no longer the country it used to be, when it didn’t have a distinct identity in the minds of Westerners.
