Book Pricing Strategies in Korea

Publishing Industry   Book Pricing Strategies in Korea   2023.07.03         Average list price of books sold in 2022 was 17,869 Korean won   In Korea, books are usually sold at a fixed price. It’s because the “fixed book price policy” is implemented as the book price policy in accordance with the Publishing Industry Promotion Act. According to the Korean Publishers Association’s statistics, the average fixed price of books in Korea in 2022 was 17,869 won, 4.4% up from the previous year (17,116 won).

Self-help books are currently the cradle of bestsellers in the publishing industry. And, as they can work like a magnet pulling readers to the bookstore once they go popular, it is no exaggeration to say that the genre can determine a bookstore’s sales for the year.The current self-help book craze began to heat up in the second half of last year in Korea, and it reached its peak this year. Unlike in the past, the trend these days was fueled by the recession that has made life more difficult. “As getting rich through financial investment has become impossible in this life, I’d rather raise my value through self-improvement” This phrase has become a buzzwor...

Reader-friendly Publication Marketing

Publishing Industry   Reader-friendly Publication Marketing   2023.05.02         Readers living in 2023 no longer get the latest news through book reviews in newspapers or advertisements. Instead, most of them purchase books through influencers on Instagram, YouTube channels, and book clubs and newsletters managed by publishing houses. As a result, more readers are meeting books through faster, friendlier, and more familiar channels.As an editor making book-review magazines in online bookstores, there’s one question that I always ask readers that buy 2 to 3 books every month - “Where do you get the news about the latest books?

Publishing companies, of course, have ...
