[TREND / SPECIAL PROJECT]

Special Project [Book & Media ⑤] Divorce Attorney Shin Everyone Has the Right to a “Sacred” Divorce 2023.06.05 The protagonist becomes a divorce lawyer out for revenge.Clients consult with the protagonist in desperation.A “human” story created by two intertwined pillars. The drama “Divorce Attorney Shin,” which aired simultaneously on JTBC and Netflix in 2023, was a drama based on the webtoon with the same title. The original story Divorce Attorney Shin (book publisher: MIMESIS Co.) was a hot series recording more than 25 million accumulated views, and the decision to dramatize the webtoon was welcome news for the fans as they had been praying for it throughout the serialization. Also, drama fans have eagerly waited for the show’s premiere, as it featured a cast of Korean actors known for their excellent acting, such as Cho Seung-Woo, playing the main character Shin Sung-Han, and Han Hye-Jin, who joins him in a lead role.

Japanese Translator’s Pick

One-Liner Quotes Japanese Translator’s Pick 2023.06.05 There’s a place that I go to whenever the spring comes after the winter. It’s my mom and dad’s graves, who passed away quite a long time ago. The graves are barren and desolate, showing how cold it was last winter. The grass has turned yellow, the leaves are thickly piled, and there are even holes made in the ground by animals from the mountain. But it’s a relief that the tall pines and yew trees surrounding the graves are green. Basking in the spring breeze, I wipe down the headstones with a mop, rake leaves with a pitchfork, firmly step on dry grass, and startle, like usual. It’s because there are fluffy balls ? pasqueflowers ? everywhere. Blooming one step ahead of the winter, pasqueflowers were bending their purple heads down.And a scene comes to mind. It’s the childhood of the two daughters. Whenever the two daughters, who have now become adult...

Flowers of the Orient ? Bringing Korean Gems to Polish Readers

Export Case Flowers of the Orient? Bringing Korean Gems to Polish Readers 2023.05.02 Sixteen years ago, immediately after a fellow Korean Philology student and good friend, Edyta Matejko-Paszkowska, and I decided to establish a publishing house that was centered around Korean literature, people were perplexed. ‘Why?’ they asked. Few believed it was a great idea at the time, and some attitudes could now be considered mocking. However, now that the Korean wave (Hallyu) has reached Poland, they are no longer laughing. The popularity of Korean cuisine, language, dramas, and K-pop has extended to Korean literature.Up until around 2007, a total of seventeen titles of what could be classed as modern or classical literature had been translated from Korean into Polish - extremely low compared to the likes of Japan or China, which both ran into the hundreds. Several key factors explain why Korean literature translations weren’t widespread. Firstly ...

Export Status of Korean Webnovels and Webtoons

Topic Export Status of Korean Webnovels and Webtoons 2023.03.13 Status of Korean webnovel and webtoon market Korea’s webnovel and webtoon market has been growing rapidly, representing the “K-content” category. The business has been expanding into other countries as well, such as other Asian countries and the US. Derivative works based on webnovels and webtoons are generating income through various channels. As can be seen in the success of the recently-aired drama “Reborn Rich,” IPs (intellectual property) based on publishing content such as webnovels and webtoons are expanding into other industries such as drama, film, animation, and games, securing the original content with relatively less investment. According to the research conducted by the Publication Industry Promotion Agency of Korea (KPIPA) and the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA), the size of the webnovel market grew from 741.5 billion won in 2020 to 1.85 tril...
