The Meaning Behind Korea’s “Copybook” Craze

Topic   The Meaning Behind Korea’s “Copybook” Craze The Analog Comeback in a Digital Age   2025.05.07   The Return of Analog Sensibility with “Text-Hip” Culture   Professor Kim Nan-Do, author of the book Trend Korea 2025 (Mirae Books), picked the “appeal of materiality” as one of the consumer trends in Korea this year. It is the power to make people not only appreciate content with their eyes, but also want to touch it physically. This is manifested in the “materialization of content” phenomenon. Kim explains that in the age of immateriality, where everything is digitized, people still crave something they can experience with their hands. This explains the recent craze for “transcription books” in the Korean book and publishing market. It is an era where all information is reduced to images and videos. People exposed to all kinds of digital content are now seeking the pleasure of holding a pen, touching paper, and seeing the contents of a book in ...

Trends and news in South Korea's book design

Trends and news in South Korea's book design   2018.01   Despite there being very limited space on a book for design, we've seen many changes in book design both experimental and diverse. Up to the early 2000s, it wasn't clear what the concept of book design entailed and at many times people would ask what it was exactly 'book designers' did.   Book designers are one of many people who are involved in making books and not only do they design the covers, they need to understand the font and contemplate how to connect readers with the materialistic characteristics of the book. In the 1980s, the form of books was quite simple and there were limitations as to how books were designed. Looking back, the unique designs from then had influenced book designs to a great extent, when book designers had to work with film by hand in designing the books(See image 1). With the development of programs, it now takes a very small amount of time to get what's inside your head onto the cov...
