The “Most Korean” Features Penetrate the World

Topic   The “Most Korean” Features Penetrate the World   2023.01.02   I met Kristen Vida Alfaro, CEO of Tilted Axis Press, in the UK last September. Tilted Axis Press is the publisher set up by Debora Smith, who won the International Booker Prize with Han Kang. The company introduced Love in the Big City (Changbi Publishers) written by Park Sang-Young and translated by Anton Hur to the UK, and the book put its name on the Booker Prize Longlist this year. Also, translated by the same translator, Chung Bora’s Cursed Bunny (Arzak) was selected for the Booker Prize Shortlist. As such, Korean literature ? or K-literature ? has recently been creating a sensation in English-speaking countries. If you take a closer look at the phenomenon, you will realize that diaspora literature written by Korean-Americans is at the center of popularity, such as Lee Min-Jin’s Pachinko and Michelle Zauner’s Crying in H Mart.   * K-Book Trends Vol. 47 ?

Export Case   Korean Books Published in Thailand through Nanmeebooks K-Book Promotion Strategy in Thai Publishing Market   2023.01.02   Around 10 years ago, Thai children reading educational comics, whether in bookstores, libraries, or school areas, became familiar to Thai people.

Elementary School Teacher’s Pick

One-Liner Quotes   Elementary School Teacher’s Pick   2023.01.02   Children’s books heal not only children’s hearts, but adults’ hearts as well. The first children’s book I would like to introduce today is a picture book titled Magic Candies (Bear Books Inc.). Have you ever imagined reading other people’s minds? Have you ever been upset by your parents for not loving you? The first appearance of Dongdong, the main character in the book, starts with a scene where he plays alone.     Dongdong tries to pretend he’s alright, but he’s not alright. He could go up to his friends and ask them to play with him, but he is shy and is not familiar with thinking about others’ minds or expressing his thoughts. One day, Dongdong goes to a stationery store to buy some marbles, and he finds sweet candies that are different in color and size. Oh, no! After eating one, he starts to hear weird things ? he could hear what ot...

Korean and Japanese Publishers Join Hands

Export Case   Korean and Japanese Publishers Join Hands The Joy of Working Together   2022.12.05   Jinbocho, located in Tokyo, Japan, is famous for being the center of bookstores. About 130 old bookstores are lined up, and bookstores ? both big franchises and independents ? can be easily found in every alley. Old bookstores on the first floor set out a little table in front of them every morning to display books, and the alleys are soon crowded with people looking to buy books. This place has many publishing houses as well. People say Jinbocho has become famous as a hub for bookstores because there have been many educational institutions in the area since the 1600s.
