Korean Picture Books Today

Topic   Korean Picture Books Today Closing the 2023 Korea Picture Book Award   2024.01.02   In November 2023, the winners of the first Korea Picture Book Award, organized by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism and the Publication Industry Promotion Agency of Korea (KPIPA), were announced.
