Bookstores that Create Books and Culture

Bookstores that Create Books and Culture Places matured by books, for books, and with books   2021.03.08     Publishers and bookstores might be different in that publishers “make books” while bookstores “sell books,” but the common attribute of the two is that they give joy and helpful knowledge to people through books.

Bestseller Keyword - Money

Bestseller Keyword - Money In 2020, Readers Chased After the Flow of Money   2021.02.08       The Asian Financial Crisis that broke out in 1997 may have sparked the recent publishing trend of “money” and “wealth” in Korea. At this time when all the conventional wisdom of getting a good job, earning money, and pursuing a stable life without debts has broken, books such as Rich Dad Poor Dad (Minumin) that suggest a new perspective that debt can also be an asset claiming that people need to study about money, and Who Moved My Cheese?

Then, the “get rich fever” in 2002, best represented by the commercial copy - “Hope you become rich!” - of a credit card company, strongly struck the publishing market. Readers, who became anxious due to restructuring in their company, early retirement, and the burden of inflation-dr...
