South Korea's Publishing Industry in H1 2019 and Forecasts for H2 Local publishing industry issues seen through bestseller and reader data analyses   2019.08.05   What kind of changes took place in the first half of 2019 for South Korea's publishing industry? First of all, typical for the first six months of every year, there were many books that looked back on the previous year and set new goals for the current year. Books that carried serious ruminations about life were snapped up by readers. And for the first time in a long time, liberal arts books -mostly philosophical books, did better than books in other categories. Befitting the age of new media, various programs introducing books could be seen on television, YouTube and podcasts. Also, due to a controversy over the Korean language section of South Korea's national college entrance exam last year, educational books on the Korean language saw a surge in interest. This year will mark the 100th anniversary of the March 1 ...

North Korea Seen Through Books, and the Unification of the Korean Peninsula

North Korea Seen Through Books, and the Unification of the Korean Peninsula   2019.08.05   On the last day of June this year, a historic event happened in the border village of Panmunjom straddling the two Koreas when the leaders of the United States and North Korea met for the first time. Just a mere 62 km away from Seoul, this location was where the ceasefire armistice was signed in July 1953 to put a stop to the Korean War that had raged for three years between North and South Korea. Although U.S. President Donald Trump stepped over to North Korea for just a minute and met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un for 53 minutes, the image of the two men shaking hands heightened hopes that the Korean peninsula could move further towards denuclearization and peace. There are several books that address this reality on the Korean peninsula that have received much interest from the publishing industry in South Korea. Books that help children and adolescents understand the reality o...

South Korea's Printing Industry

South Korea's Printing Industry   2017.10.10   Historically, publishing and printing have developed hand in hand. Thanks to the development of printing skills, mass production of paper books became possible and today, cover printing that boosts the tangibility of books, as well as various attempts at editing and the level of completion all depend on high-quality printing skills. Not only is the area of POD (Publishing/Print on Demand) expanding by the day, lying between paper books and e-books, consistent demand is also expected.     Sales of the publishing industry do not solely come from paper books.
