Writer Hwang Sunmi

Korean Authors   Writer Hwang Sunmi   2021.09.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hi. This is Hwang Sunmi. I write children and youth books.   From when did you want to be a children’s book writer?   When I was in the 6th grade of elementary school, I first read a storybook. I found out I couldn’t go to middle school at that time. The only way for me to accept that fact was to try to escape by reading books. So from reading books I then wanted to write interesting stories. I wanted to write for my whole life. I wanted to be that kind of person. That was how I was vaguely thinking at the time.   Where do you get inspiration for writing?   What gives me energy to write is life. And it is the events in the lives of people and their stories - good or bad. What inspires me What inspires me are the incidents happening among people.   Did you have a memorable childhood?   Everything is so vivid. From my ho...

Author-illustrator Lee Myoung Ae

Korean Authors   Author-illustrator Lee Myoung Ae   2021.09.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   I draw and write illustrated books. I’ve been making books for about 15 years now. I’m Lee Myoung Ae, an illustrated book author.   When did you first dream of becoming a children’s book writer?   I didn’t stand out academically. I was an ordinary child with nothing that particularly stood out about me. The first time I was praised for drawing I was in middle school. My art teacher recommended that I major in art. I thought about it a lot at that time What am I good at? What made me happiest? I decided that was painting.   Do you have any particular habits?   Whilst making illustrated books is my job, one of my habits is keeping a picture diary. Actually, people rarely do this after doing it in elementary school, but I think a picture diary where you can write and paint together is the most important habit one ca...

We talk about the uniqueness and excellence of "hansik" by mentioning the efficacy or nutritional balance of some foods, such as kimchi and "jang" (Korean pastes). However, the uniqueness of our food culture should be seen in more broader perspective, for example, how to look for foods in the environment of the Korean Peninsula over many years, how to prepare meals, how to serve, how to eat, etc. That is...

3rd Week, October 2020 Bestseller Trends in the Four Biggest Online Bookstores in Korea   2020.11.02   If we take a look at the integrated list of bestsellers announced by the four major online bookstores in Korea for the third week of October, some books catch our attention as they have ranked even before their publication. The first example is Diligent Love by Lee Seul-Ah, who has been greatly loved by Korean readers with her Daily Lee Seul-Ah Essay Collection (Hey Uhm) and My Face Becomes Like My Mom Whenever I Cry (Munhakdongne). This book, with the subtitle “Lee Seul-Ah’s Writing Room for Studying Body and Mind,” talks about what the writer has taught and learned through her writing classes. Also, See What They Mean, Say What You Mean by doctor Oh Eun Young, a so-called national mentor for childcare, offers a kind explanation about how to teach and deliver a clear message to your kid without exhibiting anger.

Publication Industry’s Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic

Publication Industry’s Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic   2020.07.13     Critique and composer Choi Jung-Woo said in his article “Era of Social Media: What is the Role of Humanities (The Kyunghyang Shinmun, December 18, 2012)” that Twitter and Facebook are referred to as bywords for modern “communication” but are never in the style of “dialogue,” and as such are paradoxically against the communicative function expected of them as “Social Networks.” He argued that Twitter is closer to laying out “testimonies” and that Facebook is more like an “exhibition” than being a platform for communication, and that with the two having more of a “monologue” characteristic, Social Media is having a negative impact on the development of humanities.Seven years and four months later, in his article “Humanities in the era of Social Media: The Gaze of Signs Emerging with Intervention (Giheok Heoui Vol. 504, January 20th, 2020)”, he once again claimed that “Even though t...
