“Restructuring of Family” Becoming Inevitable

Topic   “Restructuring of Family” Becoming Inevitable   2023.04.03   Korea has risen from a poor country to a rich country with a per capita income of 30 thousand dollars in just half a century. With such an astonishing economic development upfront, many parts of society have been transforming rapidly. It’s no exception for families.

The Uncanny Convenience Store’s Magical Journey in Taiwan

Export Case   The Uncanny Convenience Store’s Magical Journey in Taiwan   2023.04.03   Popular Korean novel Uncanny Convenience Store (Namu Bench) has experienced a very magical journey in Taiwan. Before publishing the book in Taiwan, Solo Press (寂寞出版社) had published Please Look After Mom (Changbi) with a relatively serious and heavy topic as well as Dallergut Dream Department Store (Sam & Parkers), a bestselling novel in Korea.   * K-Book Trends Vol. 46 ? Go to the article about Dallergut Dream Department Store’s successful import into Taiwan   Unlike Please Look After Mom, the two books, Dallergut Dream Department Store and Uncanny Convenience Store, are relatively simply-written, talking about things close to our daily lives. Above all, they are so-called “healing novels” with humanistic elements, which support the hearts of readers going through hardships driven by the pandemic. With the publishing experience and ...

Illustrator’s Pick

One-Liner Quotes   Illustrator’s Pick   2023.03.13     There’s one thing that I felt as I’ve been living in Seoul for 14 years. Seoul changes every second. The red-brick multi-family house where I lived for 7 years and the path that I walked on every day are no longer there, with new apartments in place instead. Most of the shops I used to be a regular at have closed, too. Such frequent changes are different in type, too. Go around the high, giant apartments, enter the alley, and you’ll see clusters of red-bricked houses all of a sudden, which is quite unbalancing.

For travelers, the vibrant atmosphere created by those different sceneries might be something dynamic and entertaining.But, as Korea has been growing too fast, people with less f...
