Book Trip [Book Space in Korean Media ②] Jeongdok Public Library Finding Filming Spots Hidden in the Library 2022.11.07 Jeongdok Public Library in Bukchon, where Korean history and traditions come to life, is a 15-minute walk from Anguk Station. Therefore, it is an ideal location to visit, embracing the unique Korean vibe. If you walk along the tranquil alley you will see Hanok (traditional Korean house), tourists wearing Hanbok, and billboards written in Korean, and you will find yourself at the library in no time. Jeongdok Public Library was previously Gyeonggi High School ? which was also previously the first public middle school in Korea built in 1900.

So, how about we follow the trail and see how various films and dramas were...

Foreign Agency on Publishing K-Books in Other Countries in Cooperation with Korean Agency

Export Case Foreign Agency on Publishing K-Books in Other Countriesin Cooperation with Korean Agency 2022.10.04 Amid an unprecedented wave of interest in Korean content, through my agency, I have the privilege of helping children’s, YA, and crossover Korean books across all genres to spread beyond Korea’s borders and into new markets outside of Asia. Korean fiction for adult readers is gaining significant attention and experiencing a real boom in many Western markets, including English, French, Spanish, German and Italian. But children’s books are lagging behind that trend, perhaps because publishers often look for familiar settings that they think parents and children will recognise and identify themselves more easily within. But the movement toward a more diverse publishing list is reaching across all reading ages and helping open up catalogues to more and more works in translation. As a result, many of the Korean titles I have sold were t...

Fandom and Publishing

Topic Fandom and Publishing Trend in the Korean publishing market in 2022 2022.09.05 I have talked with a number of editors from publishing companies about “profitable books.” They all said, “The results are mostly determined by how influential the author is. How many readers it can attract is also one of the key points of signing a contract.”While fewer people are reading books, more people hope to write books today. So, among the manuscripts flooding in, the writers who sign the contract at the end are those who are influential. The marketing capacity of the publisher is indeed important. But, in this market where capital decides the marketing power, it is more likely that you must bring in “people that don’t read” to make a book go best seller. Thus, it is clear that a publishing company prefers to publish books by those with a strong fandom, created before publication. ...
