Korean Literature in the American Market

Export Case   Korean Literature in the American Market   2024.04.01   I began translating Yun Ko-eun for a literary translation workshop in 2015, as an undergraduate at Princeton University. Little did I know at the time that ten years later, I would still be translating Yun’s work.

Publishing Industry   MCST Announces the 2022-2026 PublishingIndustry Promotion Plan Fostering K-Culture through Books and Building a Cultural Powerhouse through Publishing   2022.11.07   “Books” are the core content that has been with humanity for a long period of time.

People now prefer video services like TV, YouTube, and Netflix rather than books. The average annual percentage of Koreans reading books is 47.5...

Such efforts can be seen through major terms commonly used in news outlets, such as “endemic” and “post-COVID.” Also, in early June, the Seoul International Book Fair was held at COEX on a large scale after a three-year absence, attracting approximately 100 thousand visitors. What’s more, lectures and autograph signing events of writers that had halted due to the social distancing policy have begun to take place again. It also seems that publications, book sales, and book-related programs are beginning to revitalize.Books related to “endemic” include From Pandemic to Endemic (Dongasia Books), written by researchers at the Institute for ...
