Bestseller Trends in the Four Biggest Online Bookstores in Korea

 

2020.02.03

 

What were the best selling books in the first month of 2020? The top 10 best sellers in the four online bookstores are as follows: The Intellectual Devotional and Broad and Shallow Knowledge for Intellectual Conversation: Zero in liberal arts, Eight in self-development, Find Your Own Happiness in essay, and Trend Korea 2020 in economics and business administration, which reflect the minds of readers that are preparing for a meaningful new year.
Entering winter vacation, books for children readers such as Hunhan Nammae 3, Seol Min-Seok’s World History Adventure 4, and Butt Detective 9 made their way into the list of best sellers. The three books are a series, which are proving their popularity by becoming bestselling books whenever a new series is released.
Recently, books that represent the popularity of genre literature and webtoons were added to the list of best sellers. Solo Leveling 2 that has been a hot issue since its series was uploaded on Kakaopage is driving popularity from readers after being published as a book. Also, the novel Mo Dao Zu Shi, Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation 4 by Chinese writer Muk Hyang Dong Hu joined the rank of best sellers, receiving great love from not only Chinese readers but also from Korean readers.

 

* The rank of bestsellers below was organized after integrating domestic best sellers in the third week of January from the four biggest online bookstores in Korea – Kyobo Bookstore, Aladdin, Yes 24, and Interpark.
