Reading: Sorting Out the Unchanging from the Changing

One-Liner Quotes Reading: Sorting Out the Unchanging from the Changing Sportsperson’s Pick 2024.02.19 Jeong Ji-Hyeon has been climbing for 21 years. She served as a national athlete and as a coach for the national team. She still hasn’t forgotten the joy of competing and now works as a referee for Sport Climbing Asia. She also runs a center for people who enjoy climbing as a lifestyle sport. Although I am currently doing sports as a career, it was not my major. My major was Korean language education. I became a sportsperson by chance, but I also used to teach writing to elementary school students. I remember coming across the book One Day I Died (Baram Books), which left a strong impression on me at that time. At first, I doubted that it was a book for children. I had to read it for class, but I found the story to be quite compelling. I’m not sure if the kids in my class at the time enjoyed it. But, if you have ever lost someone you were ...

Time to Dive Into Korean History

One-Liner Quotes Time to Dive Into Korean History Lawyer’s Pick 2024.01.02 Jung Hye-Jin is a Korean lawyer, who wrote the books May It Please the Court (Mirae Books) and When Names Become Law (Dongnyok Publishers). Just thinking about Korea’s evolved reputation on the international scene makes me giddy. When I first went to the US over 30 years ago, and when I lived in the UK 20 years ago to study, one of the common phrases I heard was, “Where are you from, China or Japan?” Korea is no longer the country it used to be, when it didn’t have a distinct identity in the minds of Westerners. Kimchi, once unwelcome in dormitory communal kitchens because of its smell, has become a global favorite. Here are two books with unique perspectives on modern Korean history, explaining what happened inside Korean society that led to this major shift in perception outside of Korea. ...

Bringing Korean Literature to Hebrew Readers

Export Case Bringing Korean Literature to Hebrew Readers Successful import case of Prapanca Press in Israel 2023.11.06 The Hebrew-language book market is paradoxically both large and small. While there are only about two million active Hebrew readers, who read at least once a week, close to 7,000 new titles are published each and every year in Israel. In other words, whereas the book market is rather small in terms of readers, it is considerably large, vigorous, and diverse in terms of contents. Approximately 20% of Hebrew book publications are translations, almost all of which are translations from English, in addition to a few translations from other European languages such as Russian and Spanish.Regrettably, to date, very few Korean titles were able to reach the Hebrew book market. Although the novels of Shin Kyung-sook and Jeong You-jeong, as well as a few others, have been published in Hebrew and received in Israel with some enthusiasm, the translation...
