Topic   “Trend Forecasters” Dominate Bookstores in Korea   2022.12.05   When the new year is just around the corner, something unique happens in bookstores in Korea ? they all put out various “trend books” that provide predictions for the new year on the most conspicuous shelves they have. The consumers who are curious about what will happen in the new year ? or even tomorrow ? all have their eyes focused on those books. This attention pushes “trend books” up the list of best-selling books. For example, when you search “trend” on any online bookstore you can find, you will get roughly 1,200 books.
