This month, we would like to take a deeper look at foreign language and travel books, concentrating on the narrow spectrum of “practical books for social activities.” According to the sales statistics of Kyobo Bookstore, a representative bookstore both online and offline in Korea, foreign language books accounted for ab...

The common ground of 42-line Gutenberg Bible (1455) which is regarded as the beginning of modern publication and Jikji: Anthology of Great Buddhist Priests’ Zen Teachings (1377), the world’s first Buddhist scripture made with movable metal types which predate the Bible, is that they are both religious books. It is possible to say that philosophical and religious publications are from the same source in that they both talk about the ongoing struggles of humanity – what is a human being and how should one live.According to the statistics of the Korean Publishers Association, the number of titles published in Korea was 2,291 for philosophical books, while it was 2,958 for religious books in 2019. In terms of philosophical books, an average of 1,000 copies (1,232 copies...
