The Trend and Prospects of the Self-help Book Market in Korea

Publishing Industry   The Trend and Prospects of the Self-help Book Market in Korea   2023.06.05         The popularity of self-help books rises and falls regularly. Self-help books are currently the cradle of bestsellers in the publishing industry. And, as they can work like a magnet pulling readers to the bookstore once they go popular, it is no exaggeration to say that the genre can determine a bookstore’s sales for the year.The current self-help book craze began to heat up in the second half of last year in Korea, and it reached its peak this year. Unlike in the past, the trend these days was fueled by the recession that has made life more difficult. “As getting rich through financial investment has become impossible in this life, I’d rather raise my value through self-improvement” This phrase has become a buzzwor...

Trends in the Publishing Market in the First Half of 2022

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. Korea has been rapidly taking actions to return people’s daily lives to how they were before the pandemic. 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 ...

Reviews, Review Journals, and the New Review Culture

Publishing Industry   Reviews, Review Journals, and the New Review Culture   2021.12.06   More than 80,000 books are published each year. It means that about 200 books are released in the market every day. Some become bestsellers, and some vanish from the shelves in a few days. People that are "sincere" about reading books lose their way in the piles of new books, trying to figure out which book is good to read. Some people wait for the book column in a newspaper, some listen to book introductions on TV or radio, and some nod their head to the fancy wordplay of book-tubers on YouTube. However, as there is no appropriate or trustable guide, many readers feel as if they are trapped in Daedalus' Maze. Besides, there are voices arguing that there's actually no book to read, for there's no water to drink in a flood.   Recently in Korea, a small seed of hope has sprung up, that the new review culture will arrive, centered around a number of review journals.  ...
