K-Sports Growing Into a Global Celebration   2020.07.13     Due to the COVID-19 pandemic spreading across the world, economic and cultural activities in many countries shrunk in size, not to mention those in Korea. Sports were not an exception. The infectiousness of COVID-19 made it difficult for players and audiences to gather in stadiums, bringing all the professional sports games to a halt across the world, including the Premier League and MLB. Even the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games set to be held in Japan were put off to next year due to the pandemic; things just became gloomier day after day.Professional sports games in Korea also faced challenging conditions, but thanks to proper responses such as installing a watertight quarantine system and carrying out matches without an audience, the KBO League (Korea Baseball Championship) greeted the new season last May, followed by the K-League (Football League). While global sports fans were eagerly waiting for matches of the t...

Writer Hwang Sunmi

Korean Authors   Writer Hwang Sunmi   2021.09.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hi. This is Hwang Sunmi. I write children and youth books.   From when did you want to be a children’s book writer?   When I was in the 6th grade of elementary school, I first read a storybook. I found out I couldn’t go to middle school at that time. The only way for me to accept that fact was to try to escape by reading books. So from reading books I then wanted to write interesting stories. I wanted to write for my whole life. I wanted to be that kind of person. That was how I was vaguely thinking at the time.   Where do you get inspiration for writing?   What gives me energy to write is life. And it is the events in the lives of people and their stories - good or bad. What inspires me What inspires me are the incidents happening among people.   Did you have a memorable childhood?   Everything is so vivid. From my ho...

Author-illustrator Lee Myoung Ae

Korean Authors   Author-illustrator Lee Myoung Ae   2021.09.06     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   I draw and write illustrated books. I’ve been making books for about 15 years now. I’m Lee Myoung Ae, an illustrated book author.   When did you first dream of becoming a children’s book writer?   I didn’t stand out academically. I was an ordinary child with nothing that particularly stood out about me. The first time I was praised for drawing I was in middle school. My art teacher recommended that I major in art. I thought about it a lot at that time What am I good at? What made me happiest? I decided that was painting.   Do you have any particular habits?   Whilst making illustrated books is my job, one of my habits is keeping a picture diary. Actually, people rarely do this after doing it in elementary school, but I think a picture diary where you can write and paint together is the most important habit one ca...
