3rd Week, January 2025

Best Sellers   3rd Week, January 2025 Best seller Trends in the Three Biggest Online Bookstores in Korea   2025.02.17   It’s the third week of January, the height of winter, but the weather in Korea is still milder than usual. Meanwhile, it was a time of confusion as various social issues continued, and thus, it was also a time to read books to calm the mind and develop the strength to make more accurate and rational judgments.While Han Kang’s Human Acts still holds firm at the top of the best seller list, there were several changes in the overall rankings, possibly reflecting the start of a new year. Perhaps inspired by the new year’s resolutions and the desire to study harder, Choi Tae-Sung’s Korean History Exam 2025: Advanced (Level 1, 2, 3) Vol. 1 and 2 by Choi Tae-Sung, one of the leading instructors of Korean history, came in third and fourth. These books are the bible for test takers who want to prepare for the Korean History Profi...

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...
