The Tiger: The Origin of Korea’s Symbolic Story

Image of K-Book   The Tiger: The Origin of Korea’s Symbolic Story   2025.05.07     Tigers (called ‘호랑이(horangi)’ in Korean) symbolize Koreans’ strong spirit     In the “What animal best represents Korea?” poll, the tiger received an overwhelming 83.1% of the vote. Tigers have long been deeply rooted in Korean history and culture, with Koreans referring to them as Sangun (山君; the king of the mountain), symbolizing the majesty and authority of nature. The Legend of Dangun is a classic example of the symbolism of the tiger. The legend explains the origins of the founding of Korea, where Dangun, the son of Hwanung, the god of the sky, founded Gojoseon.

However, the tiger leaves halfway through, and the bear, who persev...

South Korea’s Literary Awards

South Korea’s Literary Awards   2018.07.31   Authors of South Korea usually start their careers by writing short stories. Every January 1st, South Korea’s key newspapers print literary works that have snagged awards, like short novels, poems, reviews and fairy tales. These contests by the papers are called “sinchunmunye”, which would translate into “spring literary contest”. This tradition began in 1925 by DongA Ilbo newspaper and for the next near century, South Korea’s key writers would first meet readers through this method. South Korea’s literary editors read these works at the beginning of the year, assess the literary potential the writers have and start contacting the new authors. The writers usually win around 5 million won per prize and winning an award at these annual competitions is considered a great honor. For many, a long time is spent honing their craft.Prominent literary magazines like Literature and Society, Munhakdongne (Literary Neighborhood), Creat...

Through these detailed examples from agencies, readers will even be able to find tips they would not have found out about without having gone through the export process themselves.     Table of Contents   1.
