Fandom and Publishing

Topic   Fandom and Publishing Trend in the Korean publishing market in 2022   2022.09.05   I have talked with a number of editors from publishing companies about “profitable books.” They all said, “The results are mostly determined by how influential the author is. How many readers it can attract is also one of the key points of signing a contract.”While fewer people are reading books, more people hope to write books today. So, among the manuscripts flooding in, the writers who sign the contract at the end are those who are influential. The marketing capacity of the publisher is indeed important. But, in this market where capital decides the marketing power, it is more likely that you must bring in “people that don’t read” to make a book go best seller. Thus, it is clear that a publishing company prefers to publish books by those with a strong fandom, created before publication.      ...

Oh Kang-Nam, Professor of Comparative Religion

Special Project   [Korean Scholars ⑨] Oh Kang-Nam, Professor of Comparative Religion A Keen Insight Toward Religion, Society, and Life   2022.09.05   We all have our own faith in mind about how to live our lives. This belief could be about a spiritual being, a community that shares a common idea, or an order like law or ethics. Professor Oh Kang-Nam, a representative specialist on comparative religion in Korea, studies these beliefs with profound observation and insight. The field of “comparative religion” may be somewhat unfamiliar to some, but it is one of the religious studies comparing various religions and beliefs throughout the world. People who specialize in comparative religious study have a deeper understanding of the most fundamental and philosophical interest of religions. Following is the interview with professor Oh Kang-Nam, who has devoted his life to valuable research and writing about the beliefs and practices of human beings ba...

Looking Back on the 65th Seoul International Book Fair in 2022

Topic   Looking Back onthe 65th Seoul International Book Fair in 2022 From a Half Step to a Full Step   2022.08.01   In January 2020, the world slowly came to a stop. As people stopped moving around for fear of contaminating others with COVID-19, the speed and scale of people’s movement dwindled. Of course, that is what it seemed like from the surface. However, all living things never stop moving. Life is a vibrant movement. To stay alive, one has to rapidly absorb objects and energy from outside, consume them inside, and release them outside. One stops when not flowing. In other words, it might have seemed that the movement stopped from the outside, but the swirl of power coming from materials and energy grows stronger as the space they move in shrinks. Before that power breaks everything in the way, people must open up a path.For the past two years, the Seoul International Book Fair has tried to open up a small path for people who have stopped moving. Physical...

103-Year-Old Philosopher Kim Hyung-Seok

Special Project   [Korean Scholars ⑥] 103-Year-Old Philosopher Kim Hyung-Seok A Song of Happiness and Hope by a Sage in His 100s   2022.06.07   Living up to 100 years has become common in modern society. We are now preparing for a world in which people live even longer than 100 years. However, a 100-year life might not always be a blessing or joyful experience since how well we spend those years matters as well. This is an overwhelming task since we don’t have any established guidelines on how to prepare for the time when life expectancy exceeds 100. That is probably why we turn to Professor Kim Hyung-Seok, who is leading a successful life in his 100s as an intellectual and a “true grown-up.” Let us explore the inspiring life of Mr. Kim, who is enjoying longevity in his own productive way and teaching us what it is like to lead a happy life as a responsible adult.       A Contemplation on the Journey towards Dying-Wel...

A Korean Literary Translator’s Pick

One-Liner Quotes   A Korean Literary Translator’s Pick   2022.06.07     When was the last time you read a book about environmental issues that wasn’t written by an American or a European? Calling South Korea a part of the Global South or the Global Majority would be a bit of a stretch at this point in history, but we still have a unique perspective to contribute to world environmental discourse as the first country in modern history to transition into an international donor nation. There are still millions of Koreans who remember what it was like to starve and have to prioritize economic growth over environmental sustainability. South Korea will always have something interesting to say in any economic growth discourse, and this book, a science bestseller in a nation full of scientists, is our latest hope for a consensus that will save the planet.The Earth Is Fine: It’s the Humans Who’re Doomed (Across Books) is by...
