The Current State of Korea’s Libraries and Their Relation to the Publishing Industry

Publishing Industry   The Current State of Korea’s Libraries and TheirRelation to the Publishing Industry   2021.11.01     Libraries have been around for a very long time in Korea, but the same cannot be said for libraries that fall under the modern definition. Pioneers who wanted to establish a new country as the late 19th century Joseon Dynasty passed, followed by the early 20th century Korean Empire, had the goal of establishing libraries under the modern concept. However, due to the arrival of Japanese colonization, they could not achieve the goal, and the concept of libraries changed as they became more of a tool for colonization. Finally, in 1945, colonization was brought to an end, and the country was liberated, but hardship struck with the Korean War that followed soon after. However, with the growth of the economy and the expansion of democracy, libraries have been endlessly changing and advancing to support the growth of citizens, the real...

The Current State of Subscription-Based Services of Korea’s Published Content

Publishing Industry   The Current State of Subscription-Based Services of Korea’s Published Content   2021.10.05   Mobile phones provide convenience as they can be used to write or read while on the move. There have been quite a lot of changes in how books, music, movies, dramas, games, and other content are created and consumed. There has also been an increase in the different types of content distribution models that use a variety of smart devices and social network systems. The major examples of this would be short-form content, which you can use for a short period, and subscriptions for sale, through which you can have unlimited access to content depending on the subscription period. The content industry is quickly transferring from a generation of “owning” to “consuming” worldwide. With the rapid increase of consumers of many contents due to the COVID-19 pandemic, renting content and subscribing to content has successfully settled as popular mass cont...

Book Funds and Publication

Book Funds and Publication   2021.07.05   From support and cooperation to investment and profit   It is impossible to trace the origin of book funds. They would have existed from the infancy stage of the publishing industry as one of the various ways of publication. Certain stories could be deemed good stories necessary for the world, but for them to be published in the market as a product called books, you need capital. Funds might have been used as a means to raise money. Indeed, the nature of funds in the past would have been closer to support and cooperation (of course, I cannot look into what those fund-raisers had in mind), whereas funds today are more focused on investment and profit-sharing (people might have different thoughts as well but most of the funds I participate in are supportive and cooperative).In the Korean publishing industry, book funds only account for a small proportion, both in terms of attempts and size of investments. It was the early 21st cent...

Audiobooks: Issues and Future Developments

Audiobooks: Issues and Future Developments   2021.05.03     Recent issues surrounding audiobooks   The voice service provided in announcements, news reading services, or e-book devices uses TTS (Text-to-Speech) technology that converts written letters into sound. As it has no accent and cuts the sentence in weird places, we have to track what it said while listening to the voice. Recently, as more people read books while traveling, e-books are transforming into audiobooks. Most people wish to hear a human’s voice when listening to one. The audiobook market is growing rapidly, but the production time, cost, and technological limitations have been slowing progress down. However, as the A.I. (artificial intelligence) voice synthesis technology is now being applied where it can process natural language, synthesize voices, and recognize the context, listeners can feel as if a real voice actor or actress is reading the story. If this technology becomes capable of expres...
