Daegu, Gyeongsangbuk-do

Daegu, Gyeongsangbuk-do A City Infused with the Scent of Books   2021.04.05       Daegu Metropolitan City, located in the southern part of Gyeongsangbuk-do, is an inland basin where mountains, forests, springs, and wetlands make beautiful harmony. Being the epitome of “harmonious coexistence,” Daegu boasts a cordial mixture of fancy townscape and beautiful nature, where the past, present, and future coexist.

Bookkeeper’s Choice - Picture Book

Bookkeeper’s Choice - Picture Book   2021.04.05         The writer of Midnight’s Gift says she reinterpreted her thankful feelings toward nature that she got when she was looking at the evening sunset. Saying that she liked the night sky from her childhood, the picture book delivers warm happiness just like the old fairy tale mom would tell us in bed. The colorful obangsaek (five cardinal colors) expressed in hanji (traditional Korean paper handmade from mulberry trees) collage makes us feel thankful towards nature, and the gift shared among the five brothers of light and darkness teaches us the happiness of sharing. The imaginative story of yin and yang, the Five Elements, and obangsaek begins when the light and darkness give birth to five children. They named their children, Dawn, Morning, Day, Evening, and Midnight. While the children were in bed, Time came and laid a present by their side. Dawn, Morning, Da...

Bestseller Keyword - Money

Bestseller Keyword - Money In 2020, Readers Chased After the Flow of Money   2021.02.08       The Asian Financial Crisis that broke out in 1997 may have sparked the recent publishing trend of “money” and “wealth” in Korea. At this time when all the conventional wisdom of getting a good job, earning money, and pursuing a stable life without debts has broken, books such as Rich Dad Poor Dad (Minumin) that suggest a new perspective that debt can also be an asset claiming that people need to study about money, and Who Moved My Cheese? (Jinmyoung) that gives a lesson that only those that have overcome fear and adapted to changes can go through challenges, caught readers’ attention. Then, the “get rich fever” in 2002, best represented by the commercial copy - “Hope you become rich!” - of a credit card company, strongly struck the publishing market. Readers, who became anxious due to restructuring in their company, early retirement, and the burden of inflation-dr...

Midnight Light: Can Light Become Pollution?

Book Grocery   Midnight Light:Can Light Become Pollution?     2026.06     A Story from an Office Worker Living in Donggyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul:   At some point, massive electronic billboards began taking over the building facades along the streets near Hongik University Station. Saturated with these overwhelming digital displays, Hongdae today is constantly flooded with brilliant, piercing light, even in the dead of night. Passersby often call it spectacular or find themselves captivated by the latest advertisements, but I look at these billboards through a slightly different lens.   “It is so bright that the night no longer feels like night.”   While others merely catch a fleeting glimpse of these screens as they walk past, I am forced to look down at them from my apartment window every single day. From where I stand, these neon monoliths do not e...
