Facilitation of Sub-rights and Their Markets

Publishing Industry   Facilitation of Sub-rights and Their Markets Plays, Films, Merchandising Goods, Etc.   2021.09.06   As Korea’s soft power expands, more people in the world are taking an interest in Korean culture. The best leaders of Korea’s soft power are BTS, director Bong Joon-Ho who has presented various movies including “Parasite,” and actress Youn Yuh-Jung’s achievement through the movie “Minari.” The values of Korean pop culture are growing, and many people worldwide are sharing Korean culture. Such a phenomenon implies that the opportunities and spaces for sharing Korean culture worldwide develop simultaneously at a rapid pace. It was, therefore, a natural result that people began to pay more attention to Korean publishing content ? the source of the OSMU (once source, multi-use) ? in addition to the phenomenon.

The Rise of Literary Agencies

The Rise of Literary Agencies   2021.06.07   There are not many literary agencies in Korea. Most of the publishers prefer working directly with authors over cooperating with agencies. It was common for publishers to think that it is safer to pay more of an advance to overseas writers who have already finished writing their manuscript or are expected to finish them soon rather than domestic writers who have not yet completed their manuscript.The most significant characteristic of the Korean publishing industry would be “diversity.” The system in which up to 6 thousand small- and medium-sized publishers make more than 80 thousand physical titles each year has greatly diversified the types of books published in Korea, but the limited average sales of each title was an expected outcome. In such an environment, it is difficult to invest a sufficient amount of development fee for each title. Hence, even though the literary agent succeeded in discovering fine manuscripts or o...

The early establishment of educational organizations for cultivating talented publishers   The paradigm surrounding planning, editing, producing, and marketing in the publishing market is changing with the rapid transformation of the publishing environment. With the coexistence of the old and modern trends in the market (e-books & paper books or audiobooks, analog & digital, and traditional media & smart media), “publishing” has become a key medium for developing and bridging new content. As we are living in the era of a cultural economy based on knowledge-intensive industries that create original content for the cultural content industry, cultivating talented publishers that are capable of understanding the attributes of content and consumers’ desires has become a key factor in developing the publishing industry. Considering this trend, the importance of train...

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ⑫ Publications of Children’s Books/Teenage Books

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ⑫ Publications of Children’s Books/Teenage Books   2021.01.04       One of the most active publishing areas in almost any country is children’s books. Many of the children’s books in Korea (for preschoolers and elementary schoolers) have long been focused on education, learning, or cognitive development for its expected roles. However, they are undergoing evolution today as a tool for delivering necessary knowledge and wisdom for kids to actively cope with the world while nurturing their boundless imagination with entertaining elements.

The teen market is breaking out of the narrow frame of a “generation stuck between child...

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ④ Social Science Publications

Current status of each field in the Korean publishing market ④ Social Science Publications   2020.05.04     The 1980s were the golden age for social science publications in the Korean publishing industry. Under the ruling of the new military dictatorship, it was social science books and their readers that took the lead in the overall social transformation through intense democratic and labor movements. The books were the texts of social movement and transformation. Bookstores specialized in social science books, though most of them cannot be found today, thrived next to colleges across the nation. With the “announcement of democratization” in 1987, Seoul Olympics in 1988, and the establishment of a civilian government in 1993, Korea has been pursuing cultural diversity amidst the paradigm shifts of political democratization, globalization, and becoming an information society, positioning itself as a responsible member of the international community.

The poems, novels, essays, and plays written in Korean by Korean authors that sublimate their identity, emotions, and critical minds are an irreplaceable pillar of Korean culture. In particular, while undergoing turbulent modern history including the Japanese colonization, the Korean War, military dictatorship, industrialization, democratization, globalization, and informatization, Koreans would reflect the wounds in gemlike poems, novels, and essays, and share them in the form of a book. While not neglecting the pains of the time and standing against unjust authority, literature also played a role as an encourager that gave courage and hope to readers. Korean publication is also a resemblance of literature;...
