Seoul International Book Fair 2020

Seoul International Book Fair 2020 New Attempts and Experiments in the Era of COVID-19   2020.12.07   Official poster of the Seoul International Book Fair   Early this year, the Seoul International Book Fair organizers had been busy preparing for the next fair set to be held in June as usual. However, as the first big wave of the pandemic crisis hit Korea in February and persisted into March and April, most cultural art events that amass a big audience had to be canceled or postponed until the second half of the year. As such, the SIBF could not be held in June, as unforeseeable circumstances curtailed the freedom of movement. It was also difficult to predict how the situation would change, so taking the event's original form and plans was a high risk. The Seoul International Book Fair 2020 had no other choice but to take on a new challenge. Physical isolation, non-contact, and online platforms accelerated the changes and made the Book Fair think of a new para...

Writer So-yeon Park

Korean Authors   Writer So-yeon Park   2022.01.03     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hello, my name is So-yeon Park. I write and offer lectures for people who work. I have written various books including High Performers Know How to Stay Simple: Working Habits of Top Performers (GILBUT Publishers) and I am also the CEO of Mentor Grace.   Why did you become a writer?   I came to a turning point and asked myself whether I would like to move forward after 12 years of working for a company. My answer to the question previously would have been to stay at work without question, but when I was given the choice, I started to feel that I didn't want to be doing this for the next 5, 10, 20 years. So I wondered what kind of business I would be able to start without any capital, and then I thought that writing something and giving lectures based on the content would work out fairly well - that is why I became a writer.   Do you ha...

Writer Yoo Eun sil

Korean Authors   Writer Yoo Eun sil   2022.01.03     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hello, this is Yoo Eun sil, a chidren’s book writer. I am forty eight this year. It's been 23 years since I started writing books. It’s been 16 years since I published my first book.   What do you think children’s book writers are?   "They should be on the children’s side." I don’t think children’s book writers should be neutral. For example, there are writers that talk about the difficulties of parenting. They submit those books for competition. Being in a position to complain about the grievances of adults - I don't think it's children's literature.   My Doksan-dong       How was your childhood?   I lived on the outskirts of Seoul in the 1980s, in Doksan-dong. There were small businesses between residential areas. That was my neighborhood. My friends' parent...

Chopsticks That Move Before Words, Jeong(情)

Image of K-Book   Chopsticks That Move Before Words, Jeong (情)     2026.03     Voting results : "Scenes that Remind Us of Korean 'Jeong'"   When we asked, “What scene comes to mind when you think of the Korean sentiment of Jeong?”, the most frequent answer was “sharing side dishes or kimchi” (48.8%). This result clearly shows that Korean Jeong is revealed not through grand words or declarations, but rather first through the consideration practiced quietly at the dining table. Warm words such as “Eat more” or “You like this, don't you?” are certainly important, but there are moments when the heart is delivered even more vividly. Small movements, such as the act of gently pushing a side dish bowl closer so someone can easily reach it with their chopsticks, the act of silently serving another portion of k...

Korean Literature in the European Publishing Market

Korean Literature in the European Publishing Market   2020.12.07   Violet   The publication rights of writer Shin Kyung-Sook's third full-length novel Violet (Munhakdongne) were sold to Weidenfeld & Nicolson in Britain in November 2020. This publisher released Please Look After Mom (Changbi) of writer Shin in April 2011, and in the following year, the writer was honored with the Man Asian Literary Prize. Violet is Shin Kyung-Sook's second full-length novel to be published in Britain after Please Look After Mom. The title "Violet" has multiple implications; it is a type of flower, a color, and a metaphor for a shy woman. And at the same time, the feeble image is naturally linked to "violence." The writer blends such various meanings embedded within the story through several illustrations and metaphors. Violet is a story of distorted desire and a rotation of all writings where the frustration of all desires and desires for writing follow one after another into the nov...
