Korea’s Audiobook Industry Ready to Fly in 2021

Korea’s Audiobook Industry Ready to Fly in 2021 The ongoing rapid evolution and development of the audiobook industry in Korea   2021.03.08     The most striking news in the new year was Influential, the operating company of an audiobook service platform ‘welaaa’, succeeding in winning 25 billion won worth of Series C sole investment from UTC Investment. This is after another mega-investment in 2020, where it attracted 13.5 billion won worth of Series B investment. Such a fast and massive investment implies that the future of the audiobook industry in Korea is rosy indeed. The domestic e-book industry says that the audiobook market's size has reached 30 billion won in 2020 and is likely to hit 60 billion won in 2021, which is nearly double the size. The audiobook market in Korea was formed in the early 2000s, but its size was trivial, with 10 billion won worth volume even until 2018. Given that situation, it is worth paying attention to the movement th...

Major Affairs in Korean Publishing Policy in 2021

Major Affairs in Korean Publishing Policy in 2021   2021.03.08     Last year had been a particularly tough year for the Korean publishing industry due to several issues, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the bankruptcy of Interpark Song-in Books Corp., fixed book price policy, the Cloud Bread writer’s loss in a lawsuit, and several other incidents that violated the freedom of publishing. Various policies are also scheduled to change in 2021 including a revision of copyright law, which is expected to transform the publishing environment. While it is highly important to narrow down the difference in ideas and find a way for coexistence regarding cases that have many interests entangled in the publishing and cultural industry, it seems that such cases will take place quite often this year. This section covers significant affairs related to the law revision currently under discussion and publishing policies.   For cases where many interests are intertwined, it...

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ⑫ Publications of Children’s Books/Teenage Books   2021.01.04       One of the most active publishing areas in almost any country is children’s books.
