Artificial Intelligence (AI) Use Cases in the Korean Publishing Market

Topic   [Publishing & AI] Artificial Intelligence (AI) Use Casesin the Korean Publishing Market   2023.12.04   At the 75th Frankfurt Book Fair in Germany this past October, a program dedicated to artificial intelligence (AI) was the center of attention. Stakeholders in the publishing industry, including writers, publishers, bookstores, and readers, have entered an era where books are being created and used in a completely different way. AI is shaking up the entire publishing industry. In particular, generative AI, such as ChatGPT and Midjourney, is rapidly being adopted in the process of writing and distributing books. At the same time, the industry is also facing new challenges, such as the need to prevent inappropriate use of AI. In the international publishing market, books written in whole or in part by generative AI are already popping up in online stores. In fact, Amazon’s Kindle e-book store has more than 1,000 titles listed.Since AI i...

What is the future of paper books?A. It’s difficult to predict the exact future of paper books, but it’s likely that they will continue to coexist with digital books in the future. While digital books have become increasingly popular in recent years, many people still enjoy the tactile experience of reading a physical book and the emotional connection that comes with owning and collecting them. Additionally, paper books are often easier to read in certain situations, such as in bright sunlight or when electronic devices are not available.The future of paper books is a subject of debate and speculation. While some people believe that paper books will eventually be replaced by digital books and other forms of digital media, others believe that paper books will continue to exist and be va...

Bringing Korean Literature to Hebrew Readers

Export Case   Bringing Korean Literature to Hebrew Readers Successful import case of Prapanca Press in Israel   2023.11.06   The Hebrew-language book market is paradoxically both large and small. While there are only about two million active Hebrew readers, who read at least once a week, close to 7,000 new titles are published each and every year in Israel. In other words, whereas the book market is rather small in terms of readers, it is considerably large, vigorous, and diverse in terms of contents. Approximately 20% of Hebrew book publications are translations, almost all of which are translations from English, in addition to a few translations from other European languages such as Russian and Spanish.Regrettably, to date, very few Korean titles were able to reach the Hebrew book market. Although the novels of Shin Kyung-sook and Jeong You-jeong, as well as a few others, have been published in Hebrew and received in Israel with some enthusiasm, the translation...

The AI Storm Sweeps the Publishing Industry: Chat GPT

Topic   [Publishing & AI] The AI Storm Sweeps the Publishing Industry: Chat GPT   2023.10.04   In 2016, Lee Se-Dol, one of the world’s greatest Go players, faced off against Alpha Go, an artificial intelligence (AI) program developed by Google’s Deep Mind, which was like the match of the century. Few expected Lee to lose, and Lee Se-Dol was humble enough to say he might lose one out of five games. But a few days later, the internet was abuzz with news of Lee’s shock defeat by Alpha Go. That was the beginning. Lee Se-Dol managed to get one win after a string of losses. His overall score was 1-4. In retrospect, the idea of a human beating Alpha Go, which had learned every recorded move in the game, was almost impossible. It was just that people didn’t realize the immense power of AI at the time.Fast-forward seven years to 2023 in Korea, and AI is being utilized across industries. AI is spreading to various fields, such as mobility, robotics, and the medical...

A Special Convenience Store that Mesmerized Japanese Readers!

Export Case   A Special Convenience Store that Mesmerized Japanese Readers! The import case of Uncanny Convenience Store published by Shogakukan in Japan   2023.10.04   It was two years ago, in the fall of 2021, when I first heard about Uncanny Convenience Store (Namu Bench) through an email from a Japanese agent. At that point, the book had already gone through 15 printings in Korea, sold close to 100,000 copies, and had been adapted for drama and theater, which was enough to pique my interest. But it was the title and content of the novel that made me even more intrigued. It’s a “convenience store,” but inconvenient? What a humorous title! My interest in the book grew further. And the story of a tall, mysterious man with no memory becoming a convenience store clerk, and influencing the lives of those around him, was fascinating. As convenience stores are an integral part of modern life in Japan, we knew that this story would appeal to the Japanese public. Th...
