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...
