A steady seller refers to a book that goes beyond just being a trend, and has a long-lasting lifespan through the power of its story. There are many books that become overnight bestsellers simply because they are written by popular authors with a fandom, or because they are endorsed by influencers. However, steady sellers are the ones that stay with readers across time. These books have stood the test of time and are more than just a fad; they resonate with readers and deliver a deeper message about life.

Berlin: A Multicultural City that Loves Outsiders

Special Project   [New Ways of Walking Through Cities ③] Berlin: A Multicultural City that Loves Outsiders   2025.03.10       Berlin was a city divided into East and West by the Berlin Wall during the Cold War.

A City Where the Past and Future Meet: Tokyo

Special Project   [New Ways of Walking Through Cities ②] A City Where the Past and Future Meet: Tokyo   2025.02.17       Korea and Japan are countries that are both close and far away at the same time. They are located in East Asia and have similar climates, four seasons, and no time difference. Even the cityscapes look similar at first glance. Seoul and Tokyo both feature a mix of skyscrapers and traditional architecture. However, if you look a little deeper, you start to see the subtle differences between them.

For example, Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul seems to blend into the modern cafes and shops surrounding it, but in Tokyo’s Asakusa neighborhood, the shrines and temples are quiet reminders of a time gone by.When you first step foot in Tokyo, you feel like you have just walked into a giant puzzle.
