Best Sellers   2nd Week, August 2022 Bestseller Trends in the Four Biggest Online Bookstores in Korea   2022.09.05   Familiar titles could be found on the best sellers’ list for the 2nd week of August. Writer Kim Hoon returned with his new book Harbin, about the life of An Jung-Geun (Korean independence activist) that he has been working on for a long time.
