How to Live in the Generation where You “Watch” Books

How to Live in the Generation where You “Watch” Books   2020.11.02       Today, reading paper books has become just one of the many ways of enjoying books.

K-MUSIC K-MUSIC, the World-Class Music that has Fascinated the World   2020.11.02       You may not have heard of it at all, but no one listens to it just once. That is what they say about K-Music. Addictive melodies, romantic lyrics, and the spicing-up effects and perfect dance movements of K-Music make you feel like you have received a gift filled with stories. As such, Korean music goes beyond being just a piece of “music” that you listen to where melodies and instrumental sounds make a simple mixture; it has a more profound meaning as “general art” that combines bountiful visual contents and colorful performances. Let’s look at how the artists and K-Music have caught the eyes of the world with the most “Korean” music across generations and genres including traditional music, dance, ballad, hip-hop, trot (known for its use of repetitive rhythm and vocal inflections), and opera from the standpoint of the publishing industry.     Globally fanatic ...
