Korean Publishers   Human Cube From an Imprint to a Publisher, and Finally, a Publishing Group   2023.06.05   An imprint refers to a system where a publisher gives an independent brand or affiliate to an editor or others and entrusts them with the entire management of it.

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. Libraries, art museums, museums, and stadiums had to close due to social-distancing. Schools that postponed the new semester a couple of times chose to open classes online. Publishers had to grope in the dark, putting a halt to publications or promotions of new titles that they have long been preparing for. It was a total nightmare. While all the cultural markets were engulfed in endless darkness, it was yet good news that the book market saw a relatively satisfactory performance. The virus-driven shock to offline bookstores was dire. However, for online bookstores, their sales record soared, led by children’s and teen boo...

Speech and Literature were the weapons of women

Speech and Literature were the weapons of women Status of Korean feminism and changes made in the Korean publishing industry since 2015   2020.03.02     There is no such thing as “Korean Feminism.” Yet, there is a history of Korean feminism fighting against the deep-seated hatred against women in society. The year 2015 is likely to be recorded as the most important period in the Korean history of feminism. In January, a Korean teenage boy who sought to join the Islamic State in Syria lamented that men are being discriminated against, voicing his hatred of women. In February, a pop culture journalist, male, published a column titled “Anencephalous feminism is more dangerous than ISIS” in a fashion magazine. This triggered women’s joint criticism of his comment and subsequently initiated feminist activism via the (hashtag) #iamafeminist on Twitter in South Korea. Later that year, a Korean rapper released a controversial song about his hate against women...
