A Special Convenience Store that Mesmerized Japanese Readers!

Export Case   A Special Convenience Store that Mesmerized Japanese Readers! The import case of Uncanny Convenience Store published by Shogakukan in Japan   2023.10.04   It was two years ago, in the fall of 2021, when I first heard about Uncanny Convenience Store (Namu Bench) through an email from a Japanese agent. At that point, the book had already gone through 15 printings in Korea, sold close to 100,000 copies, and had been adapted for drama and theater, which was enough to pique my interest. But it was the title and content of the novel that made me even more intrigued. It’s a “convenience store,” but inconvenient? What a humorous title! My interest in the book grew further. And the story of a tall, mysterious man with no memory becoming a convenience store clerk, and influencing the lives of those around him, was fascinating. As convenience stores are an integral part of modern life in Japan, we knew that this story would appeal to the Japanese public. Th...

Fiction is a Journey Into the Complexity of Human Identity

One-Liner Quotes   Fiction is a Journey Into the Complexity of Human Identity A Newly-Debuted Korean Novelist’s Pick   2023.09.04   Kim Ki-Tae has been publishing a number of short fiction stories depicting contemporary Korean society since he won the Dong-A Ilbo Shinchun Literary Prize in 2022. He is currently writing full-length novels based on world history.   The world is a jumbled mess, and humans cannot be explained by a single identity. I began to have a sense of this as I read Korean novels from the 1940s. From the mixed landscape at the end of the Japanese occupation to the rather abrupt independence and ideological conflict, the 1940s may be the most chaotic period in Korean history. The novels of this period portray human beings wandering in the midst of various crisscrossing powers.     Kim Nam-Cheon (1911-?) began his writing career in t...
