Publishing Industry   MCST Announces the 2022-2026 PublishingIndustry Promotion Plan Fostering K-Culture through Books and Building a Cultural Powerhouse through Publishing   2022.11.07   “Books” are the core content that has been with humanity for a long period of time. However, the domain of each type of content and the boundary between them have become unclear these days.

As such, the publishing industry takes on different content-based roles, crossing the traditional frontier of “print books.”However, unlike the diversified channels for publishing content, readership is falling every year. People now prefer video services like TV, YouTube, and Netflix rather than books. The average annual percentage of Koreans reading books is 47.5...

Publishing Industry   Trends in the Publishing Market in the First Half of 2022   2022.08.01   People are still reeling from the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has swept the world over the past three years.

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 ...
