My Favorite Book, Whale by Cheon Myeong-Kwan

I Read   My Favorite Book, Whale by Cheon Myeong-Kwan   2024.05.07   This article is a review written by an Indian reader ofK-Book Trends after reading a Korean book.If you want to share your wonderful experience of reading Korean bookswith other overseas readers, please send us an email!kbooktrends@gmail.com   “Reading maketh a full man,” said Sir Francis Bacon years ago. The saying still holds true. Reading for leisure and pleasure is a good habit. It instructs us in our youth and comforts us in our old age. Sometimes, reading brings about a revolutionary change in a person’s outlook. Particularly in these days of mechanical existence, when people have hardly any time to attend meetings, the best source of acquiring religious and general knowledge is books that can be easily browsed wherever a person finds time to spare. For a long time, I, too, have developed this habit of reading books. I like reading books of different ge...

South Korea's Translated Literature Awards, Where Are They Now?

South Korea's Translated Literature Awards, Where Are They Now?   2017.11.01   South Korean works of literature are making themselves known here and there outside the country. At this time, it's easy for the importance of translation to be overlooked. The same work of art can shine more brilliantly or suffer through different translators. It is not an easy task to carry the same message in Korean books while conveying the respective emotions or characteristics of the language the work is being translated into. And so, there are increasingly more awards to boost the number of excellent translators and translated books in South Korea. The following describes the status of South Korea's prizes for translated literature and examples.   The Emergence of Screensellers in South Korea   In March 2016, Han Kang's The Vegetarian first published in 2007 made headlines when it became a candidate for the Man Booker International Prize - the first for any Korean. In May that year...

A New Joy Found in Daejeon - Tiny Bookstores

A New Joy Found in Daejeon - Tiny Bookstores   2019.11.04     When chatting about traveling through cities in South Korea, Daejeon is almost never mentioned because of the lack of content worth noting aside from the fact that it lies right in the center of the Korean peninsula. One would also be doing themselves a favor by not recalling the Daejeon Expo from 1993, because they would be giving away how old they are. The story becomes different if the objective of your travels becomes narrower - specifically if the objective is books.     A quiet place for quiet voices - Cloud Bookshop / Gumo Cafe     We tend to fill the bookcase with books that may be liked by people who prefer quiet spaces.      About two years ago, a small bookstore opened its doors in Dong-gu, Dae-dong in Daejeon. You could find it tucked away in a neighborhood with low, aged walls between houses. The owner of that bookstore...
