Sales of key South Korean bookstores

Sales of key South Korean bookstores   2019.07.08   Today in many countries, online bookstores are a solid part of their publishing distribution networks. Up until the early 1990s, only physical bookstores of varying scale existed and readers' selection of books was based on book displays and how accessible the stores were. However, following the emergence of Amazon in 1995, online bookstores have solidified their position as key sales channels of the publishing industry in countries around the world. That change markedly took place in South Korea compared to other countries.   After online bookstores first emerged in South Korea in 1997, they grew rapidly due to book discounts, with the fixed price policy largely ignored.   Currently, the market share of online bookstores in the United States stands at 45 percent, France 20 percent, Germany 18 percent and Japan 15 percent. In South Korea, that number is higher than 50 percent. South...

Reading: Sorting Out the Unchanging from the Changing

One-Liner Quotes   Reading: Sorting Out the Unchanging from the Changing Sportsperson’s Pick   2024.02.19   Jeong Ji-Hyeon has been climbing for 21 years. She served as a national athlete and as a coach for the national team. She still hasn’t forgotten the joy of competing and now works as a referee for Sport Climbing Asia. She also runs a center for people who enjoy climbing as a lifestyle sport.   Although I am currently doing sports as a career, it was not my major. My major was Korean language education. I became a sportsperson by chance, but I also used to teach writing to elementary school students. I remember coming across the book One Day I Died (Baram Books), which left a strong impression on me at that time. At first, I doubted that it was a book for children. I had to read it for class, but I found the story to be quite compelling. I’m not sure if the kids in my class at the time enjoyed it. But, if you have ever lost someone...

Eight titles and publishers were honored in the grand prize, special prize, and rookie prize categories for fiction and nonfiction. Considering the size of the prize and the diverse range of winning titles, it was a good start for a new award system. The “picture book” genre is not yet fully established in the Korean publishing industry. For example, in large bookstores, “picture books” are placed in a subcategory of the pre-school category. However, the fact that we were able to clearly recognize “picture books” as a single artistic genre and reach a consensus in the screening process to organize an “award for picture books” is thanks to the strong...
