Writer Minha

Korean Authors   Writer Minha May you find strength and encouragement through picture books   2024.02.19   The 2023 Korea Picture Book Award chose K-picture books that will represent Korea to the world. Among the many winners, my eyes were drawn to a book that showed off unique ideas with a distinctly Korean touch. The book A Round of Tightrope Walking (Gloyeon) won the grand prize in the non-fiction category. As we read A Round of Tightrope Walking, which incorporates various elements of picture books and realistically depicts tightrope walking, we couldn’t help but smile as we imagined how excited children would be to read this book. Minha, the writer, creates a different kind of fun that goes far beyond the limits of books and paper. And since Minha says that picture books are like a shelter for her, we think her readers can also imagine and rest as much as they want through her books. Following is an interview with Minha, who continues to wri...

Writer Kwon Jung-Min

Korean Authors   Writer Kwon Jung-Min “Picturing” an Ordinary Scene with a Fresh Perspective   2024.01.02   Unlike novels, which use words to create a picture in the reader’s mind, picture books allow the reader to imagine the story using only “pictures.” If you are a reader who needs a break from reading and watching in the midst of flashy digital visual media, a picture book can be a shelter. Kwon Jung-Min finds new aspects in familiar scenes in everyday life and captures the hidden aspects of human beings in a fresh way through the art of drawing. Following is an interview with Kwon, who practices looking into herself through picture books.       It’s a pleasure to have you with us on K-Book Trends. Could you please briefly introduce yourself to our readers?   Hi, I’m Kwon Jung-Min, a picture book writer. Picture books speak a different language and follow a different logic than normal books. When you feel ...

Korean Authors   Writer Kim Hye-Jung The Story of Becoming “Me, Different from Yesterday”   2023.12.04   Adolescence is a time of imperfection, making it all the more precious and beautiful because you can envision anything you want in the future.

Listening to the inner thoughts of struggling teenagers and writing their stories with sincerity, Kim hopes that her books will give teenage readers a place to breathe. Her affectionate and warm perspective on the stories of teenagers could be felt throughout the interview.
