Book Intro   Ra Heeduk has put the ordinary landscape of her daily life into words, making them shine as a pearl found in a mudflat. If capturing fleeting moments through one’s own eyes and interpreting all the mysterious things in the world with language is what poets do, they will catch what they see even while walking the trails through their delicate and warm glances.Ra saw the back of an old man walking with a cane, the back of an old woman sitting in the shade, and the back of a couple hugging each other, and thought of the frail back that all humans have....

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ① Literature publication

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ① Literature publication   2020.02.03     Interesting stories from the past will always attract people’s minds; literature was the beginning and the flower of publication in every country. The poems, novels, essays, and plays written in Korean by Korean authors that sublimate their identity, emotions, and critical minds are an irreplaceable pillar of Korean culture. In particular, while undergoing turbulent modern history including the Japanese colonization, the Korean War, military dictatorship, industrialization, democratization, globalization, and informatization, Koreans would reflect the wounds in gemlike poems, novels, and essays, and share them in the form of a book. While not neglecting the pains of the time and standing against unjust authority, literature also played a role as an encourager that gave courage and hope to readers. Korean publication is also a resemblance of literature;...

South Korea's Imprint System in Publishing

South Korea's Imprint System in Publishing   2019.10.07   Most well-known South Korean publishers have several imprints (independent brands under the same publishing house). This number can go up to double-digits for large publishing houses, while smaller publishers' number of imprints is usually in the single-digit range. Imprints are a way for publishers to expand their publishing range as well as the size of their business and improve profits. Around 2005, the number of imprints grew rapidly in South Korea, and this trend was led by Woongjin Thinkbig, which managed more than 30 imprints at one point. They had a publishing system where they would recruit well-known people from the industry, like directors or editors, give them high wages and place them in charge of imprints. After looking at their performance for two years, the company would decide whether to extend their contract or not. In addition to Woongjin, Minumsa, 21st Century Books and Wisdom House, which...

Sales of key South Korean bookstores

Sales of key South Korean bookstores   2019.07.08   Today in many countries, online bookstores are a solid part of their publishing distribution networks. Up until the early 1990s, only physical bookstores of varying scale existed and readers' selection of books was based on book displays and how accessible the stores were. However, following the emergence of Amazon in 1995, online bookstores have solidified their position as key sales channels of the publishing industry in countries around the world. That change markedly took place in South Korea compared to other countries.   After online bookstores first emerged in South Korea in 1997, they grew rapidly due to book discounts, with the fixed price policy largely ignored.   Currently, the market share of online bookstores in the United States stands at 45 percent, France 20 percent, Germany 18 percent and Japan 15 percent. In South Korea, that number is higher than 50 percent. South...
