South Korea's budding publishing experts

South Korea's budding publishing experts   2018.01     University education inside South Korea to create experts in the publishing industry peaked in the 1990s. This was reflected in how even regional universities outside the capital area created new majors for this purpose while more than 10 two-year community colleges also did the same. There were also several locations that used the title "electronic publishing". Currently there is only one four-year university that has a publishing related major(Semyung University) and two two-year colleges(Shingu College, Seoil University). In today's modern world where job education is key, the number of majors at universities might as well be a barometer for how successful that field is. And this change shows well how things have greatly changed from 20 years ago when there was a surge of those working in the publishing industry.    On the other hand, there is a need to note not many publishers require their workers to ...

Humanist Books

Humanist Books Spreading wide, deep knowledge and culture   2017.10.10   Recently, I set out to conduct an interview with Seo-hyeon Hwang, executive editor at Humanist Books. After setting out from Hongik Univ. Station and finding my way through the narrow paths of Yeonnam-dong, passing by several pretty cafes with outdoor seating, I found myself before a gray, modern building. The word "Humanist" can plainly be seen on one side of the building. After stepping into the coffee shop on the first floor and making my way down a set of stairs I discovered books Humanist has published, all organized neatly.From the basement to the top, the floors of the building are well connected, like water flowing. From the outside it is clearly a building with sharp angles, but the interior everything fits perfectly. I randomly lift my head in the center of the building and the open ceiling lends a view of the blue sky above.I think to myself, 'This is a quite human building'. From the exterio...
