Export Case   Mexican Readers and Korean Literature Korean Literature is the Promised Land of the Western Publishing Market   2023.08.07   Although Mexico and South Korea are on different continents and have many differences, they both have a history of fighting for their identity and country. While some events, such as the immigration of the first Korean community to Mexico in 1905, have been erased from Mexico’s official history (the historical debt is still being addressed), there is no arguing that the friendly relationship between the two countries is growing stronger every day as they find common ground.Korea has increasingly expanded its influence through its culture and entertainment industry to bring down the borders, and its music and TV series, especially the drama and action genres, have been favored by Latin American audiences, including Mexico. Latin American audiences have long been influenced by the United States in their approach to universal hu...

Time has passed since then, and this year, the SIBF marked its 29th anniversary.Hosted by the Korean Publishers Association, this year’s SIBF was successfully held in COEX located in Samsung-dong, Seoul, over five days from June 14 to 18.

As the Korean culture is very interesting to young people in T?rkiye, we wanted to be a part of it by building a bridge by translating stories of talented Korean authors. As Gen?
