Collaboration of Reading Class at School and the Publishing Industry

Publishing Industry   Collaboration of Reading Class at Schooland the Publishing Industry The Impact of the "Reading One Book in a Semester" Program   2022.02.14   Before discussing Korean schools' reading education, “Reading One Book in a Semester” should come first. The program “Reading a Book in a Semester” is an educational method in the National Curriculum Revised in 2015. It is about reading a book a semester during Korean classes. This methodology was first applied to 3rd and 4th graders of elementary school and first-year students in middle and high school in 2018. From 2020, it was expanded to students from grades 3 to 12.Generally, “Reading One Book in a Semester” is conducted in around 12 to 17 classes per semester for Korean courses.

Reviews, Review Journals, and the New Review Culture

Publishing Industry   Reviews, Review Journals, and the New Review Culture   2021.12.06   More than 80,000 books are published each year. It means that about 200 books are released in the market every day. Some become bestsellers, and some vanish from the shelves in a few days. People that are "sincere" about reading books lose their way in the piles of new books, trying to figure out which book is good to read. Some people wait for the book column in a newspaper, some listen to book introductions on TV or radio, and some nod their head to the fancy wordplay of book-tubers on YouTube. However, as there is no appropriate or trustable guide, many readers feel as if they are trapped in Daedalus' Maze. Besides, there are voices arguing that there's actually no book to read, for there's no water to drink in a flood.   Recently in Korea, a small seed of hope has sprung up, that the new review culture will arrive, centered around a number of review journals.  ...

Fiction is a Journey Into the Complexity of Human Identity

One-Liner Quotes   Fiction is a Journey Into the Complexity of Human Identity A Newly-Debuted Korean Novelist’s Pick   2023.09.04   Kim Ki-Tae has been publishing a number of short fiction stories depicting contemporary Korean society since he won the Dong-A Ilbo Shinchun Literary Prize in 2022. He is currently writing full-length novels based on world history.   The world is a jumbled mess, and humans cannot be explained by a single identity. I began to have a sense of this as I read Korean novels from the 1940s. From the mixed landscape at the end of the Japanese occupation to the rather abrupt independence and ideological conflict, the 1940s may be the most chaotic period in Korean history. The novels of this period portray human beings wandering in the midst of various crisscrossing powers.     Kim Nam-Cheon (1911-?) began his writing career in t...

“Restructuring of Family” Becoming Inevitable

Topic   “Restructuring of Family” Becoming Inevitable   2023.04.03   Korea has risen from a poor country to a rich country with a per capita income of 30 thousand dollars in just half a century. With such an astonishing economic development upfront, many parts of society have been transforming rapidly. It’s no exception for families. Recently, there have been voices from parts of Korean society that the structure of the “family” should be re-engineered from the bottom. More books in the publishing market have begun to discuss the “restructuring of family.”   Changes in Gender Norms in Korean Society   Korean society has undergone rapid industrialization and urbanization in the 1960s and 70s. This spurred a fast transition from the traditional way of having big patriarchal families to nuclear families. However, nuclear families still had some patriarchal elements left, and men-focused gender roles were maintained. Also, while there was no sturdy s...
