Suncheon, Jeollanam-do

Suncheon, Jeollanam-do A Place Full of Peace and Literature   2020.12.07       Suncheon, Jeollanam-do, boasts a God-given natural landscape where the mountains, sea, and lakes make a beautiful mixture. With people calling the region "sogangnam (meaning the second Gangnam in Chinese, which refers to the prosperous region on the southern Yangzi river), the city, nature, and people live in peaceful harmony. The Jeolla Line and Gyeongjeon Line railroads cross to connect Youngnam and Honam regions, making Suncheon a popular tourist site for many people.

Writer Kim Lily

Korean Authors   Writer Kim Lily   2021.12.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hello. My name is Kim Lily, a children’s author as well as a rice cake shop owner who wrote My d’Artagnan (Changbi), Puff Snacks are Here (Munhakdongne), and Manbok’s Rice Cake Shop Series (BIR).   Did the memories from your childhood influence your works?   When I was young, I was a skinny, not pretty to look at, and not a bright girl. I think that is why I went through some difficult times. But whenever those times hit me, I survived by imagining things. At the time I remember desperately wishing for my wishes to come true. I do write many stories about wishes by reminiscing on those days.   Why did you dream of becoming a children’s book author?   I had this idea that a children’s book author is someone who ‘grows the flower garden of the imagination’. Since I had many siblings, I was sent to the countryside alone and spen...

Writer Park Yeon-jun

Korean Authors   Writer Park Yeon-jun   2021.12.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hello, my name is Park Yeon-jun. I write poems and prose, and now I am writing novels, too.   Why did you decide to become a writer?   I think I have always loved stories since I was young. That is why I was interested in writing, reading, and listening to others. Among those, I found that reading interested me the most and I think that led me to become a writer.   What do you think is the most important thing when you write?   The reason empathy is vital is that you need to think from the perspective of a chair when you are writing a poem. Not how men would view an ordinary chair. The sadness and the form of the chair from its perspective; the people who stay for a while and leave the chair must think about various ideas like how the chair would feel. Even things in this studio, these small cables, lights, three of you sitting...

Writer Yi Hyeon

Korean Authors   Writer Yi Hyeon   2021.12.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hello, My name is Yi Hyeon, author of children’s books and youth novels. Nice to meet you.   Why do you write youth novels?   People often talk about middle schoolers’ 'puberty', 'youth', and 'the young generation' as if they were disorders, and always look at the young in such a way. Also, there seems to be a tendency to generalize about young people. Such is the world of youth. So, I wanted to write youth’s stories. That's also why I have recently been meeting with some students.   Do you remember any young adults?   I heard the “dating story” of a child in the third year of high school. It was a love story that hadn’t yet started. I listened and I was thrilled. And through his concerns he showed different thoughts. It was very nice to see the way he is being nurtured and developed.   How do you decide the story for your...

Image of K-Book   Hallasan: A Peak Shaped by Nature and History   2026.01.05     Korea’s representative mountain, Hallasan     About 70 percent of Korea’s land area is mountainous. One of the most prominent ranges is the Taebaek Mountain Range (태백산맥; 太白山脈), which stretches from the northeast to the southeast and includes many famous peaks such as Geumgangsan, Seoraksan, Odaesan, and Taebaeksan. However, the highest mountain in Korea is located on Jeju Island at the southernmost tip of the country: Hallasan, which topped this month’s K-Book Trends poll as “Korea’s representative mountain.” Rising 1,947 meters above sea level, Hallasan is an active volcano formed by repeated eruptions of basaltic lava. It was designated a Natural Monument of Korea in 1966, and in 2007, it was recognized as a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site, gaining recognition as a natural treasure of global sign...

2nd Week, February 2021

2nd Week, February 2021 Bestseller Trends in the Four Biggest Online Bookstores in Korea   2021.03.08   When we look at the top 10 bestsellers analyzed by major online bookstores in Korea for the second week of 2021, half of them were from Economics & Business Administration. This implies that it has not lost its strong influence in the Korean book market. For example, My First Investing Lesson Vol 1, 2 scored high from the moment of its pre-order period. Investor Kim Jung-Hwan, the writer of this book, is a major value investor in Korea. He has been gaining public fame across the nation, which is well-reflected in his Youtube performance of recording 450K subscribers in 5 months. The book turned into an issue in the market as the news spread that he has put secrets to investment, which he said he only taught his daughter, in two volumes of a book rather than in a video. While books about economics and business administration are at the center of the bestsellers, th...
