Topic   Dreaming of a Different Peace as We Depart from Houyhnhnms   2024.08.05   The 2024 Seoul International Book Fair (SIBF) has concluded with great success. During the peak hours when the crowd surged, I found myself in a state of constant anxiety, hoping that everything would go smoothly. As visitors queued up, stretching so far that the end of the line was out of sight, and the temperature inside rose, making the air conditioning struggle, my heart tightened. Yet, now I breathe a sigh of relief that the event ended without major incidents.   Main posters of 2024 SIBF     Challenges in preparing for the 2024 Seoul International Book Fair   This year’s preparation for the Seoul International Book Fair was fraught with challenges.

Special Project   [English Books in Korea ③] Korean Folk Tales and Picture Books:Spreading Korean Culture into the World Introduction of Korean folk tales and picture books published in English   2024.08.05   Since its founding in 1963, “Hollym,” the English-language brand of “Hollym Corp., Publishers,” has been publishing and exporting English-language books introducing Korean culture to the world with the catchphrase, “Books on Korea to the World.” In 1977, it established a local subsidiary, “Hollym International Corp.” in New Jersey in the US, and has set up overseas distributors around the world to accelerate book exports.From the late 1900s to the early 2000s, not many people knew where Korea was located, or even if it existed at all.

New Books   What Do Life and Death Look Likefor Single-Person Households in South Korea?     2026.06     Kim Su-Young, The Inevitable Loneliness, 2026.   In 2021, Professor Kim Su-Young, author of The Inevitable Loneliness, launched the 〈ALONE〉 project, a two-year study documenting the lives of 109 single-person households. This book brings to light the stories of 56 participants from that research. As of August 2025, South Korea officially entered an era where single-person households exceed ten million.
