Storyseller

Korean Publishers   Storyseller A storyteller who delivers unique experiences to the public   2025.10.02   Just as words have power, a name that is spoken often should not only convey identity and vision but also carry a positive meaning. What if we employed homonyms, words with multiple meanings? Such a name, open to diverse interpretations depending on context and intent, also carries a sense of wit and delight. Storyseller (이야기장수; Iyagijangsu), founded by Lee Yeon-Sil, one of Korea’s most celebrated editors, fills its books with stories as diverse and engaging as the word jangsu (장수), a term that itself carries multiple meanings, including “seller.” More than just selling stories, Storyseller seeks to reach readers everywhere, sharing life stories that are ordinary yet one of a kind.   Logo of Storyseller     It’s a pleasure to have you with us on K-Book Trends.

Foreigner Living in Korea’s Pick

One-Liner Quotes   Foreigner Living in Korea’s Pick   2022.07.04   Before coming to Korea for the first time about 5 years ago, I must admit I was not well-acquainted with Korean culture overall. I did see a couple of Korean movies and dramas, and I did become a fan of BTS’ music around the time Hallyu was shyly making its way into my country, Serbia. However, I have never read a single book by a Korean author prior to moving to Korea. The two books I would like to introduce today I thought to be uniquely marked with a deep sense of something specifically ‘Korean’, while at the same time, equally and as deeply reflecting the purest and deepest universal human values, and as such, I believe could evoke true empathy with readers anywhere around the globe. So far, the two books left the greatest, most profound impact on me throughout my years of living in Korea.     When I first typed the word ‘Gwangju’ in the...

103-Year-Old Philosopher Kim Hyung-Seok

Special Project   [Korean Scholars ⑥] 103-Year-Old Philosopher Kim Hyung-Seok A Song of Happiness and Hope by a Sage in His 100s   2022.06.07   Living up to 100 years has become common in modern society. We are now preparing for a world in which people live even longer than 100 years. However, a 100-year life might not always be a blessing or joyful experience since how well we spend those years matters as well. This is an overwhelming task since we don’t have any established guidelines on how to prepare for the time when life expectancy exceeds 100. That is probably why we turn to Professor Kim Hyung-Seok, who is leading a successful life in his 100s as an intellectual and a “true grown-up.” Let us explore the inspiring life of Mr. Kim, who is enjoying longevity in his own productive way and teaching us what it is like to lead a happy life as a responsible adult.       A Contemplation on the Journey towards Dying-Wel...

Writer Jung Dae-Gun

Korean Authors   Writer Jung Dae-Gun Different in Form, Yet Always a “Story”   2025.09.04   Human language is generally used for two purposes: to convey information or to spread stories. Both have a profound impact on our lives. If the former is essential for survival and progress, the latter is indispensable for finding meaning in life. It is because our lives themselves become stories, and the empathy gained through them forms the basis for understanding others. The following is an interview with writer Jung Dae-Gun, who conveys this uniquely human language of empathy in diverse and distinctive styles.   (Source: Kim Seo-Hae)     It’s an honor to have you with us on K-Book Trends. Please say hello to our readers and introduce yourself briefly.   Hello, I’m novelist Jung Dae-Gun. I once worked on documentary and feature films, but now I am fully devoted to writing novels.
