Korea’s Non-Fiction Books Building Global Competitiveness

Korea’s Non-Fiction Books Building Global Competitiveness   2020.10.05   It is notable that the Korean Wave in the publishing industry began in the Northeast Asian and Southeast Asian publishing markets. And the major players that strongly supported the trend were novels and TV dramas “Winder Sonata”, “Gaeul Donghwa” and “Jewel in the Palace”. The wave then moved to the British and American markets, and the first field to penetrate those markets among the Korean publishing areas was literature. However, an interesting phenomenon can be easily witnessed today that recalls the past days - the publication of non-fiction books in the Asian publishing market is showing an upward curve. Now, while setting a specific strategy for non-fiction titles to enter the British, American, and European markets, aggressive sales efforts need to be made. Authors and titles that have the capacity to compete with others on the global stage have appeared in Korea. In fact, there are already...

This is Heo Kyo bum, I have been working as a writer for 8 years now.   What motivated you to become a writer?   When I recall my childhood, I have more sad memories than happy memories. So if you ask why I became a writer, it's because I like stories. If you ask why I like stories, it’s because when I was young, I immersed myself in the world of stories and I was able to forget the hardships of reality. That became an opportunity for stories to play an important role in my life. Then, by chance, I thought I might be able to make a career from this. From the moment I decided to do that, I realized that no other dream could have replaced it. No matter how good the job, a great job for other people, or even if it was a job that could make me a lo...

Writer Lee Seula

Korean Authors   Writer Lee Seula   2021.10.05     Please introduce yourself to our readers.   Hello, I’m Lee Seula, the writer. I publish Dailee-sulla, I also run the Hey Uhm publishing house. I was born in 1992. I write diligently.   How was your childhood?   When I was a child, I was so shy that my talking wasn’t great. I think one whose speech isn’t good can write well. People who are good at talking can communicate so well that they won’t have any regrets because they say everything they want to. But those who are not good at talking go home with regrets. Those with regrets have a high probability of writing a diary. In that respect, I think I was a child who wrote a diary full of regrets. In my youth, I also wrote a lot of diaries back then.   I heard that there was one particular teacher who helped you become a writer.   I attended an alternative school. There were a lot of activities there that made me write. That...

I also work on illustrated books. and I have written play and a youth novel.   What was your childhood like?   I have dyslexia. But when I was young I didn’t know I had dyslexia.
