South Korean Government Policies to Shore Up the Publishing Industry

South Korean Government Policies to Shore Up the Publishing Industry 2018.05.30 One characteristic of South Korea's publishing industry is that the government is heavily involved in the industry policy-wise. Before the South Korean government's declaration of democracy and the authorization of independent establishment of publishing companies in 1987, the military-dominated government oppressed publishers and announced many publication regulations. From 1993 when civilian administrations took control of the country and into the 2000s, the government launched policies to boost the publishing industry, introducing a completely different paradigm.

South Korea's Translated Literature Awards, Where Are They Now?

South Korea's Translated Literature Awards, Where Are They Now? 2017.11.01 South Korean works of literature are making themselves known here and there outside the country. At this time, it's easy for the importance of translation to be overlooked. The same work of art can shine more brilliantly or suffer through different translators. It is not an easy task to carry the same message in Korean books while conveying the respective emotions or characteristics of the language the work is being translated into. And so, there are increasingly more awards to boost the number of excellent translators and translated books in South Korea. The following describes the status of South Korea's prizes for translated literature and examples. The Emergence of Screensellers in South Korea In March 2016, Han Kang's The Vegetarian first published in 2007 made headlines when it became a candidate for the Man Booker International Prize - the first for any Korean.
