Writer Yoo Sun-Kyong

Korean Authors   Writer Yoo Sun-Kyong Facing Your Emotions and Naming Them   2022.08.01   We express our feelings through writings in the form of journals or texts. While writing, we think of words to describe the emotion with the question, “How am I feeling now?” and organize our thoughts. Words like angry, sad, or happy are used to express emotions. Still, we need more diverse expressions and phrases to describe the feeling in detail. Yoo Sun-Kyong, an author who is loved for her best sellers Emotional Vocabulary (Annes’ Library) and Vocabulary of Adults (Annes’ Library), focuses on putting names and expressions on feelings and lets readers face the feelings they disregard. So, let us take time to listen to her stories and see what our emotions tell us.       We are happy to have the writer Yoo Sun-Kyong in our webzine. Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hello, readers ...

Export Cases of Language Books Developed in Korea

Export Cases of Language Books Developed in Korea   2021.02.08       It is not an exaggeration to say that most language books developed in Korea are focused on English education and that most of the exported books are English books for children and elementary schoolers. Language books made in Korea consist of multiple series and are categorized into different age groups and levels, not to mention the content and services provided alongside them. However, no matter how good the books are organized in the demanded style of overseas buyers and consumers, it is difficult for them to end up signing a sales contract.Yet, there are still many cases where language materials made in Korea are exported to other countries. It is thanks to several distinct characteristics they have that they have such strong competitiveness. In the 1980s, there were not many language books solely made by Korean publishers, and in most cases, they imported or processed those of famous overseas...
