Seoul International Book Fair 2020

Seoul International Book Fair 2020 New Attempts and Experiments in the Era of COVID-19 2020.12.07 Official poster of the Seoul International Book Fair Early this year, the Seoul International Book Fair organizers had been busy preparing for the next fair set to be held in June as usual. However, as the first big wave of the pandemic crisis hit Korea in February and persisted into March and April, most cultural art events that amass a big audience had to be canceled or postponed until the second half of the year. As such, the SIBF could not be held in June, as unforeseeable circumstances curtailed the freedom of movement.

Physical isolation, non-contact, and online platforms accelerated the changes and made the Book Fair think of a new para...

And the major players that strongly supported the trend were novels and TV dramas “Winder Sonata”, “Gaeul Donghwa” and “Jewel in the Palace”. The wave then moved to the British and American markets, and the first field to penetrate those markets among the Korean publishing areas was literature. However, an interesting phenomenon can be easily witnessed today that recalls the past days - the publication of non-fiction books in the Asian publishing market is showing an upward curve.
