Comfort Across Time: The Global Spotlight on K-Literature, Past, Present, and Future

One-Liner Quotes   Comfort Across Time: The Global Spotlight on K-Literature, Past, Present, and Future     2026.03     Korean culture is now transcending domestic production to become a core subject for major global studios, deeply embedding itself into the daily lives of people worldwide. This is evidenced by the global animation 〈K-Pop: Demon Hunters〉, which dominated algorithms in 2025, and the film 〈Past Lives〉, produced by the renowned Hollywood studio A24. The allure of K-Culture, which has captivated the global gaze, shines even more intensely within its literature. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature winner Han Kang’s Human Acts proved that the tragic scars of history are not exclusive to Koreans. Furthermore, Cheon Seon-ran’s A Thousand Blues, which secured a film adaptation deal with Warner Bros. Pictures, demonstrated that kindness toward the marginalized resonates de...

Korean Science Fiction Today

  One-liner Quotes   Korean Science Fiction Today     2026.02     A narrative is composed of events, characters, and a setting of time and space. That is what we are taught. In traditional storytelling, the events were paramount. However, at some point, character-driven narratives began to take center stage.In genres such as sitcoms or animations, events only materialize through the existence of the characters; the plot is merely the consequence of their action.Conversely, in storytelling for content like video games, “world-building” — the specific time and space that shapes a world — has become the priority.Worlds that are entirely alien to our reality, or those with overlapping or inverted rules, provide the necessary plausibility for their characters and events. Similarly in literature, genres such as fantasy...

Korean Publishing Market Trends in 2025 and Outlook for 2026

Topic   Korean Publishing Market Trends in 2025 and Outlook for 2026   2026.01.05         Trends in 2025: A Year of Digital Transformation and Practical, Stability-Oriented Content   In 2025, Korea’s publishing market underwent noticeable shifts in the ways readers discovered, selected, and consumed books, as digital transformation accelerated and social and economic uncertainty deepened. On the surface, the overall market size appeared relatively stable. Beneath that stability, however, structural changes became increasingly clear: the number of new titles grew significantly, while the average print run per title declined. As supply expanded, the actual market reach secured by individual titles continued to narrow. These changes were further shaped by the expansion of generative AI (Artificial Intelligence) and intensified competition from OTT (Over-the-Top) platforms. Together, t...

Expanding the World of Books Through Book-Themed Merchandise

Topic   Expanding the World of Books Through Book-Themed Merchandise   2025.12.01   The craze for book-themed merchandise   At bookstores and book fairs across the country, what catches the eye as much as the books themselves these days is book-themed merchandise. From bookmarks, postcards, and stickers to keyrings, T-shirts, book covers, incense, and drip-bag coffee, objects orbiting around books have now become a form of publishing content in their own right. According to Kyobo Book Centre’s statistics, sales of reading accessories in 2024 rose by 28% compared to the previous year. The trend was evident at this year’s Seoul International Book Fair (SIBF), where nearly every publisher’s booth displayed merchandise beside their books, and readers purchased these items with enthusiasm equal to the books themselves.Some criticize this shift, arguing that merchandise is overshadowing books and accelerating the commercialization of publishing. However, the ph...

The Global Hub of Culture and the Arts: London

Special Project   [New Ways of Walking Through Cities ⑫] The Global Hub of Culture and the Arts: London   2025.12.01       Once called “the empire on which the sun never sets,” Britain has seen its tangible influence fade over the two centuries since its golden age in the 19th and 20th centuries, yet its symbolic power remains intact. London, a city that still holds the historical and cultural legacy built during the days of the British Empire, exemplifies this most clearly. This is why tracing the history of London back to its beginnings as the Roman fortress of Londinium is no easy task, for the meanings contained within its past are countless. London is also a city inseparable from one of humanity’s most significant milestones - the Industrial Revolution.During the Industrial Revolution, London was one of the fastest-growing cities in the world in terms of population. Its population, whic...
