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.

Writer of the Year Award

Writer of the Year Award The first fruits of the rookie authors of this year 2020.02.03 If overseas publishers have one yardstick that they choose to adopt when they encounter Korean authors and works, it is whether the work received a literary award in Korea.

Therefore, whether a work has won a literary award in Korea has become a criterion for overseas publication companies for assessment.There are many literary awards in Korea. Each of the awards has different characteristics and standards for awardees depending on the aim and host of the award. Special Project of the webzine K-Book Trends introduces each of the unique literary awards in Korea. This part answers questions from overseas readers about the “K-Book Award”, by providing information on the authority, cha...
