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.

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.

Considering the size of the prize and the diverse range of winning titles, it was a good start for a new award system. The “picture book” genre is not yet fully established in the Korean publishing industry. For example, in large bookstores, “picture books” are placed in a subcategory of the pre-school category. However, the fact that we were able to clearly recognize “picture books” as a single artistic genre and reach a consensus in the screening process to organize an “award for picture books” is thanks to the strong growth of th...
