Agencies talk actual copyright export cases

Agencies talk actual copyright export cases   2018.01   It is a well known fact South Korea's copyrights are being exported actively throughout the globe. However, it is difficult to know in detail what books are being sold into which countries and how. This is because the information is directly connected to the business operations of agencies that are involved in intermediating export deals. It is also because so many books are being exported to other countries simultaneously.In our January webzine, we will look at what kinds of content have been exported so far including literature, children's books, practical books, series, comics, webtoons and language education workbooks.

2020 Publication Trends in Korea

2020 Publication Trends in Korea   2020.02.03     Korea has fully entered a low-fertility and aging society. The number of students is rapidly decreasing, and for domestic colleges, some of the majors have been taken off the curriculum or were integrated due to a lack of applicants for 2020. This trend gives birth to new keywords for the generation such as “Millennial Generation”, “Active Senior Generation” or “Senior Generation” in our society, while on the social sensitivity side, keywords from other perspectives that were not highlighted in the society such as feminism, fairness, fragmentation, double-sidedness, and growth are emerging.   Young people familiar with media will enjoy and represent the changing times with their sensibilities.   Trend Korea 2020 is an annually published book series which launched in 2009 with Trend Korea 2010. The series consists of analysis and predictions about Korean consumption trends. The b...

South Korea's online platforms where readers can meet genre literature   2019.12.09   Typically genre literature refers to genre fiction, which in turn is used to call novels with similar elements or narrative styles like books of science fiction, fantasy novels, detective thrillers and mysteries. As we entered the 2010s, the market for e-books and web novels which represent digital publishing content rapidly grew and genre fiction has been shaking up the conventional literature scene ever since. In South Korea, web novels centering on genre fiction appeared in earnest in January 2013 on Naver's web novel service.What sets web novels apart from conventional novels is the fact that their formats can vary depending on the author's situation.
