Trends and news in South Korea's book design

Trends and news in South Korea's book design   2018.01   Despite there being very limited space on a book for design, we've seen many changes in book design both experimental and diverse. Up to the early 2000s, it wasn't clear what the concept of book design entailed and at many times people would ask what it was exactly 'book designers' did.   Book designers are one of many people who are involved in making books and not only do they design the covers, they need to understand the font and contemplate how to connect readers with the materialistic characteristics of the book. In the 1980s, the form of books was quite simple and there were limitations as to how books were designed. Looking back, the unique designs from then had influenced book designs to a great extent, when book designers had to work with film by hand in designing the books(See image 1). With the development of programs, it now takes a very small amount of time to get what's inside your head onto the cov...

Agencies talk actual copyright export cases

Agencies talk actual copyright export cases   2018.01   It is a well known fact South Korea's copyrights are being exported actively throughout the globe. However, it is difficult to know in detail what books are being sold into which countries and how. This is because the information is directly connected to the business operations of agencies that are involved in intermediating export deals. It is also because so many books are being exported to other countries simultaneously.In our January webzine, we will look at what kinds of content have been exported so far including literature, children's books, practical books, series, comics, webtoons and language education workbooks. Through these detailed examples from agencies, readers will even be able to find tips they would not have found out about without having gone through the export process themselves.     Table of Contents   1.
