Publishing Industry   The Current State of Subscription-Based Services of Korea’s Published Content   2021.10.05   Mobile phones provide convenience as they can be used to write or read while on the move.

Best Book Designs From All Over The World

Best Book Designs From All Over The World   2021.05.03     We have recently chosen the “Best Book Designs in Korea.” As each book is beautiful in its own way, it is meaningless to line them up based on a fixed standard. However, selecting books that have best represented the beauty of the generation breathes life into it and makes it meaningful once again. In order to choose the best book designs, we put our heads together to select the right judges. We received opinions from various fields and invited five judges among them, who were Moon Janghyun, Park Yeounjoo, Park Hwalsung, Jin Dallae, and Choi Sulki. We posted an announcement about the contest and received submissions. We also asked those who made the books recommended by the reviewers from various fields to submit their books. Ten books made it to the final, and each of the judges gave a precious, carefully written commentary to all the winners.The chosen books from this year’s fair will go to L...
