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.  ...

Facilitation of Sub-rights and Their Markets

Publishing Industry   Facilitation of Sub-rights and Their Markets Plays, Films, Merchandising Goods, Etc.   2021.09.06   As Korea’s soft power expands, more people in the world are taking an interest in Korean culture. The best leaders of Korea’s soft power are BTS, director Bong Joon-Ho who has presented various movies including “Parasite,” and actress Youn Yuh-Jung’s achievement through the movie “Minari.” The values of Korean pop culture are growing, and many people worldwide are sharing Korean culture. Such a phenomenon implies that the opportunities and spaces for sharing Korean culture worldwide develop simultaneously at a rapid pace. It was, therefore, a natural result that people began to pay more attention to Korean publishing content ? the source of the OSMU (once source, multi-use) ? in addition to the phenomenon. All this means that it has become a reality that the number of different usage cases of sub-rights based on Korean publication con...

Book Funds and Publication

Book Funds and Publication   2021.07.05   From support and cooperation to investment and profit   It is impossible to trace the origin of book funds. They would have existed from the infancy stage of the publishing industry as one of the various ways of publication. Certain stories could be deemed good stories necessary for the world, but for them to be published in the market as a product called books, you need capital. Funds might have been used as a means to raise money. Indeed, the nature of funds in the past would have been closer to support and cooperation (of course, I cannot look into what those fund-raisers had in mind), whereas funds today are more focused on investment and profit-sharing (people might have different thoughts as well but most of the funds I participate in are supportive and cooperative).In the Korean publishing industry, book funds only account for a small proportion, both in terms of attempts and size of investments. It was the early 21st cent...
