Performance Summary of Korean Publications in the Global Publishing Market in 2020 and Prospects for 2021   2021.01.04       Performance summary of Korean publications in the global publishing market in 2020 The year 2020 will be recorded as a year in which Korean publications have had a meaningful experience in the global publishing market. It is because they have received balanced positive feedback in both fiction and non-fiction categories and in the Asian, European, US, and UK publishing markets. While certain titles or areas had been the cherry on the cake in the past, the trend has changed in 2020. Books in various genres have shown almost equally significant performance in various language regions.

And so, there are increasingly more awards to boost the number of excellent translators and translated books in South Korea. The following describes the status of South Korea's prizes for translated literature and examples.   The Emergence of Screensellers in South Korea   In March 2016, Han Kang's The Vegetarian first published in 2007 made headlines when it became a candidate for the Man Booker International Prize - the first for any Korean.

As I run a publishing company in South Korea, I visit bookstores and libraries in Germany often in search of good ideas for publications.

The Literature Translation Institute of Korea played a huge role in getting these books to German readers, but usually it is rare for German publishers to publish South Korean books all on their own. Being aware of many excellent books in S...
