Writer Min Ji Hyoung

Korean Authors   Writer Min Ji Hyoung Going beyond gender issues: the story of women’s love and life   2024.08.05   They say that fiction is a mirror of the times. It reflects and captures various aspects of contemporary times.

How to Live in the Generation where You “Watch” Books

How to Live in the Generation where You “Watch” Books   2020.11.02       Today, reading paper books has become just one of the many ways of enjoying books. Even though you don’t necessarily “bite or taste” the books like that famous advertisement phrase, you are able to enjoy books through various channels. In particular, the transformation of diverse media based on books began to lead the new generation where you “watch, listen to, and experience” books. Some people say that “texts will be replaced with videos in the new era,” but such transformation led by the development of platforms is live evidence that books are still more of an interesting or competitive medium than you might think.

Author-illustrator Lee Myoung Ae

Korean Authors   Author-illustrator Lee Myoung Ae   2021.09.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   I draw and write illustrated books. I’ve been making books for about 15 years now. I’m Lee Myoung Ae, an illustrated book author.   When did you first dream of becoming a children’s book writer?   I didn’t stand out academically. I was an ordinary child with nothing that particularly stood out about me. The first time I was praised for drawing I was in middle school. My art teacher recommended that I major in art. I thought about it a lot at that time What am I good at? What made me happiest? I decided that was painting.   Do you have any particular habits?   Whilst making illustrated books is my job, one of my habits is keeping a picture diary. Actually, people rarely do this after doing it in elementary school, but I think a picture diary where you can write and paint together is the most important habit one ca...
