The “Contactless” Marketing Trend in the Era of COVID-19

The “Contactless” Marketing Trend in the Era of COVID-19   2021.04.05     The pandemic has changed the publishing industry   The virus, COVID-19, struck global industries and economies in January 2020. Our daily life has changed completely as well. The schools’ administration system almost froze as all the schools postponed the new semester.

Then, learning the history of Korean Sci-Fi will be a good way to understand it better and get a clearer glimpse of its future outlook. The beginning of Sci-Fi in Korea goes back to 1907.
