Books with Discourses on the Post-COVID-19 Era in Korea

Books with Discourses on the Post-COVID-19 Era in Korea The world after the pandemic   2020.08.03     Now, we can no longer live in the way we lived before. With the outbreak of COVID-19 across the world, people have begun to divide the era into two: BC (Before Corona) and AD (After Disease). This new infectious disease did not just kill innocent people , but is severing physical movement and interpersonal interaction. With the emergence of a contactless society, a massive shift is taking place in the society, economy, and politics.In the face of the pandemic, publishers are busy planning exclusive books about the COVID-19 era. Since March this year, books featuring the virus have been newly filling the shelves, adding new lines to the discourse so-called “post-COVID-19.” For faster publication of books, publishers chose to make them in the omnibus style, where writings of several specialists are combined in a single book.   The unprecedented spread of the vi...

Why K-Books are drawing attention from across the world

Why K-Books are drawing attention from across the world   2020.06.01     Amidst the time when countries are closing gates due to the spread of COVID-19, Korean literature is taking a step closer to overseas readers while drawing attention from the US, Britain, Germany, and Japan.

Writer of the Year Award

Writer of the Year Award The first fruits of the rookie authors of this year   2020.02.03     If overseas publishers have one yardstick that they choose to adopt when they encounter Korean authors and works, it is whether the work received a literary award in Korea. Winning a literary award in Korea does not guarantee success in the international market, but it can be a reference that the work’s value and popularity among readers are recognized. Therefore, whether a work has won a literary award in Korea has become a criterion for overseas publication companies for assessment.There are many literary awards in Korea. Each of the awards has different characteristics and standards for awardees depending on the aim and host of the award. Special Project of the webzine K-Book Trends introduces each of the unique literary awards in Korea. This part answers questions from overseas readers about the “K-Book Award”, by providing information on the authority, cha...

Writer Kang Hwa-Gil

Writer Kang Hwa-Gil Careful Call for Things that Should Not be Taken for Granted   2020.10.05   Author Kang Hwa-Gil writes about things we can easily find around us. If there is one thing that differentiates her stories from others, it is that her works are delicate, or rather chilly in the sense that she seems to be living a different life from ordinary people. In her book Eumbok (which means to partake of sacrificial food and drink) that features ancestral rites, and in Gawon and Hand that mainly describe our daily life, she talks about psychological violence, hatred, suppression, and horror that women experience.Kang Hwa-Gil points out the sense of displacement from people’s attitude of taking things for granted when they shouldn’t.       Hello, it’s a pleasure to meet you. Please say hello to our subscribers.   Hi, I am Kang Hwa-Gil, and I write novels. It’s good to be meeting you.   Is there a reason for you to choose hatr...
