Light, Even in Darkness

One-Liner Quotes   Light, Even in Darkness     2026.07             The Anxiety of “Securing a Safe Home of One’s Own”   I have a long-standing habit. Upon finally reaching the very last sentence of a novel, I flip the pages backward with a rustle to return to the first sentence once again, a method I call the Möbius strip reading technique. When the end and the beginning of a novel are stitched together inside the mind, the story grows even more intense, leaving no exit. Everything, absolutely everything, becomes amplified.   Yeom Seung-sook, The Future Where Everything Has Already Happened &n...

A New Vision Rooted in Tradition: The Evolution of Korean Picture Books

Topic   A New Vision Rooted in Tradition:The Evolution of Korean Picture Books     2026.05     Who is searching for Korean picture books?   The Korean Pavilion at the 2026 Bologna Children’s Book Fair was consistently bustling with publishing professionals from around the world. In addition to those visiting the booth for pre-scheduled copyright consultations, it was not uncommon for visitors to be drawn in by the on-site author talks or workshops and request a meeting on the spot. On the second day of the fair, at the Networking Day hosted by the Publication Industry Promotion Agency of Korea, participants were asked about the strengths of Korean picture books. They remarked that the books are not only delicate in their expression but also diverse in their thematic approaches, providing readers with a "challenging reading experience." This is a remarkable turnaround compared to the early ...

Imagination Beyond Borders: The Whole New World in K-Picture Book

Export Case   Imagination Beyond Borders:The Whole New World in K-Picture Book     2026.05     Imagine a world where borders require no passports, thoughts have no ceilings, and the impossible becomes real. You might find yourself drifting on a cloud of cotton candy or catching fruit-flavored rain to make a bowl of shaved ice. That world, tucked inside a picture book, is simply waiting for a hand to reach out and a story to unfold. It is an essential place where imagination first ignites for the smallest of readers.

TWO WOMEN LIVING TOGETHER by Hwang Sunwoo and Kim Hana

Export Case   TWO WOMEN LIVING TOGETHER by Hwang Sunwoo and Kim Hana     2026.04     I am the proud American editor of TWO WOMEN LIVING TOGETHER, thebestselling Korean memoir by Hwang Sunwoo and Kim Hana—two single women in their late thirties, who’ve chosen to buy a home and live togetheras non-romantic life partners. In the United States, the term "roommates" tends to have a very particular connotation, often conjuring young twenty-something-year-olds who are forced to live in close quarters out of thrift, and who may or not become close friends, though they rarely reach the familial intimacy of domestic partners. Typicallythe arrangement is seen as a temporary one, until each roommate reaches the financial freedom to live alone, or to start a household with their romantic partners.   But Hwang Sunwoo and Kim Hana have fundamentally unsettled this Western convention, as two friends who ...

Transcription: The Rising Star of the K-Education and Parenting Market

Knowledge   Transcription: The Rising Star of the K-Education and Parenting Market     2026.04     Why Transcription is Returning to the Forefront of Education   Transcription books have consistently expanded their readership within the Korean publishing market. While they once primarily served adult readers seeking self-improvement or emotional healing, recent years have seen a distinct shift: transcription books are now merging with child education to form a prominent new trend. Parents no longer view transcription as mere copying. Instead, they embrace it as a profound method of reading—one that involves slowly digesting high-quality sentences, tracing them by hand, and anchoring those thoughts within oneself. By shifting away from the fast-reading habits where content is quickly consumed and forgotten, transcription has gained new educational significance as a practice of deep focus, f...
