How are Regional Publishers in Korea Thriving?

Publishing Industry   How are Regional Publishers in Korea Thriving? Cooperation of local publishers seen through the Somewhere, Someone series   2023.03.13         I’m living in a village by the ocean in Goseong County, Gangwon-do Province. The first thing I do in the morning is take a walk on the shore in front of the village with my dog. Once I reach the shore, I take off the leash for him to move around freely, and check orders from bookstores on a number of applications. Sometimes, I sit in a corner, enter the logistics website, and start my morning work.

Such efforts can be seen through major terms commonly used in news outlets, such as “endemic” and “post-COVID.” Also, in early June, the Seoul International Book Fair was held at COEX on a large scale after a three-year absence, attracting approximately 100 thousand visitors. What’s more, lectures and autograph signing events of writers that had halted due to the social distancing policy have begun to take place again. It also seems that publications, book sales, and book-related programs are beginning to revitalize.Books related to “endemic” include From Pandemic to Endemic (Dongasia Books), written by researchers at the Institute for ...

Korea’s Writing Platforms

Publishing Industry   Korea’s Writing Platforms   2022.07.04   In the book Writing Space, Jay David Bolter says that writing technologies realize the writing space. In other words, the writing tools, materials used, cultural selection, and social customs significantly impact the writer’s writing style and content. As a result, changes in writers’ works will be more evident in a different environment in the long run. After the Digital Revolution, people write about their daily lives more on screens than on paper, and people are moving from offline to online at an astoundingly fast pace.With changes in writing space, the pathway to publishing books is also changing rapidly. In the past, writers won literary awards, submitted to publishers, or were recommended by acquaintances before publishing their works in paper books. In contrast, writers nowadays increasingly publish their writings on online writing platforms first, get found by editors, and ...
