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 ?

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. In addition, many prominent universities still exist in this region. As such, Jinbocho is a town of 100-year-old bookstores and publishing houses.I myself am writing books, running a bookstore, and working as a book broker in this town where writers, producers, and readers all naturally gather around....

K-Book Trend in Latin America Seen Through the Chilean Publishing Market

Export Case   K-Book Trend in Latin America SeenThrough the Chilean Publishing Market   2022.11.07   When people make a general analysis of Korea, they often use words like “turbulent” and “dynamic.” This is closely related to the modern history of the country. Korea is located in the most unique geopolitical region in the world, and such a condition made Koreans go through many miserable moments in history; its modern history was as if it had been dropped in the middle of the turbulent sea.It is true that the historical and geopolitical environment has made Koreans experience bitter times in history. Still, just like how shells produce beautiful, precious pearls after long years of perseverance, the pain and sorrow gave Korea a rich and profound cultural heritage and a unique sensibility. As a result, you can truly find so many priceless literary works and writers in the country. However, unlike how Korea boasts many novels, stories, and poem...
