Round Ground

Round Ground Where dreams of a world full of well-rounded lives exist   2019.10.07   How does play begin? There are times when one ponders whether play has turned into learning. So much educational material and the media rarely think twice about directing children how to play, and caregivers are always eager to lead and interfere when children play. One may think there are right and wrong ways to play, but play will always be play. Playing is enough when it's enjoyed no matter the process, with fun materials and tools. Everything the eye can see, whether it be tree leaves, bubbles, passersby or the house you live in, can be materials for play or even play itself if it's visible and tangible. Children are aware of this joyful fact more than anyone else, and Round Ground is the place where that fun for children is raised to another level.     Even just listening to the name Round Ground is fun. What meaning does the name Round Ground carry? Could you also introduce y...

Paju Book City

Paju Book City City of, for and by books   2019.10.07     There are cities that focus on creating things. Usually, in the case of these planned cities, all the businesses that provide the raw materials, packaging and shipping tend to be clustered together. Industrial zones tend to show this type of congregation as if they are sapped of romance and all the businesses simply exist for efficiency. However, the story becomes a little different if that industrial zone creates books.     Publishers that left the city   Its official name is Paju Publishing Culture Information National Industrial Zone. The name, already a mouthful, brings to mind the sound of engines, metal clanging and dust. It certainly cannot explain the entirety of what Paju Book City is. This is because the city of books has so many enticing characteristics, and it doesn't exist as a dreary space where everything focuses on production.It cannot be denied that Paju Book City was formed out of...

Hey Uhm

Hey Uhm Joyful Swimming in the Vast Sea of the Publishing Industry   2020.03.02   Publisher Hey Uhm   There was a writer that would “directly sell” her writing to readers through Social Media. It is the story of writer Lee Seula, who came up with a clever idea to continue securing stable finance through writing. This fresh approach shocked the publishing industry which sparked little changes to take place. And writer Lee Seula, the one that ignited the changes, set up Hey Uhm to create books she wants. Writing a story and making a book. They are different in many aspects by nature except one thing that they are all for readers. Still, many questions arose regarding the publisher that was born with a bold decision and its founder.   Writer Lee Seul-ah, founder of Publisher Hey Uhm ⓒ Ryu Han-kyung   The name of the company, Hey Uhm, is unique. What does the name “Hey Uhm” imply?   “Hey Uhm” is a pure Korean word that means “to swim.” The feeling I...

K-Thrillers lead Hallyu publications in Europe

K-Thrillers lead Hallyu publications in Europe   2018.06.28   As we are approaching the third quarter of this year, K-thrillers(Korean thrillers) are emerging as the new leading force in the world’s publishing market. And at the center of that whirlwind are authors like Jeong You-jeong, Kim Un-su and Seo Mi-ae. The attention on these authors - whose work can be summarized into three words: mystery, thriller, crime - has been heating up from global publishers. Not only has interest been burgeoning in Europe, especially English speaking countries there, but also in Asia. One point to note is that this interest from the global publishing market in Korean literature, especially K-thrillers, is not entirely new. Global publishers, especially those in English dominant countries, have consistently been drawn to titles in this genre. However, if that interest had not led to exports before, soft interest at home and a lack of sales marketing for these books were likely to blame. Wha...

Poetry App “Siyoil”

Poetry App “Siyoil” Publication Content Breathing Anew In A Mobile Age   2018.06.28       Poetry and mobile   Siyoil was planned and launched out of necessity for a platform on which users could read at least one poem a day, easily find poetry and share it with other users. Those in charge of the project believed poetry was a literary genre ‘made for’ mobile devices like smartphones, where aesthetic content is consumed everyday. After its launch, the application has improved consistently, tailored to the needs of its users, and more poems have been added including new works. On April 23, the app marked its first anniversary and a new section called ‘Poem Diary’ was launched where users could upload works of poetry and writing on the app like they would in a diary. Siyoil saw more than 200,000 users register before its first anniversary. In comparison, the Facebook account for Changbi, Siyoil’s parent company, took seven years to gain ...

South Korea's Major Online Bookstores

South Korea's Major Online Bookstores   2017.12.01   Online bookstores account for 30 percent of South Korea's total book distribution and sales. The largest bookstore companies of this kind include YES24, Aladin, Interpark and Kyobo Book Centre, which has a large offline base. They are the 'Big 4' and when including offline sales, Kyobo dominates, but when talking about just online book sales, YES24 is the current leader.     After ‘Amazon.com’ emerged in the United States in 1995, global online book sales surged sharply and in South Korea, the first online bookstore appeared in 1997. Shortly after in the early 2000s, several more online bookstores entered the foray that had no offline base or store. Their growth over the following decade was astonishing. In 2009, sales reached an aggregate 1 trillion won before peaking in 2011. Internet bookstores have since shown fluctuation in sales repeatedly and this is where some explanation is needed. ...
