Secondhand Bookstore Manager’s Pick

One-Liner Quotes   Secondhand Bookstore Manager’s Pick   2022.05.02   Before I began to work at a secondhand bookstore, I used to visit Japan and have chats with people working at used bookstores. They were mostly on the books, but sometimes we moved on to talking about the language itself. If you think of a secondhand bookstore in Tokyo, the first regions that come to mind would be Jinbocho or Kanda. But after discovering that there are unique used bookstores around the central subway line, I traveled to the suburbs of Tokyo.Then, one day, a worker at a secondhand bookstore near the central subway asked me to recommend him a Korean book. The bookstore he was at was a popular spot for foreign students studying at nearby universities, most of whom are from different countries and are great fans of Korean dramas. So, taking this as a chance, he created a group with some like-minded customers to study the Korean language and wanted me to recommend a...

Window of Times

Korean Publishers   Window of Times Pierce like a spear, reflect like a window, or sing like a singer   2025.06.02   Why do you make books? Every publisher will have a different answer to this question. Yet, every answer has its own value, and our lives are thus enriched. The publisher Window of Times continues to release books about beings and lives that we are familiar with, but know little about. From Marx to Chomsky, from farmers to convenience store part-timers, it delves deeply and uncomplicatedly into the stories of those we mistake for too distant or too familiar - to make books as a spear, window, or a song (창 in the publisher’s Korean name, “시대의창,” can be used in three different ways) to the world.   The logo of publishing house Window of Times     It’s a pleasure to have you with us on K-Book Trends.

Korean Authors   Professor Choe Jae-Chun The world of an ecologist, in which all things are beautiful for being alive   2025.06.02   There are a number of people who argue that humans are inherently selfish and that life is a struggle of every man against every man.

The Comeback of Best-selling Books is Thanks to Youtube

Topic   The Comeback of Best-selling Books is Thanks to Youtube   2022.03.07   “Try this.”It’s not some random street vendor tempting tourists to try Dalgona using Squid Game’s popularity. Winter Bookstore, one of the most popular BookTubers (Book + Youtuber) with 230K subscribers, posted a video introducing a book. Her influence is truly colossal.The book she introduced was Why Fish Don’t Exist, a non-fiction book written by US science journalist Lulu Miller. Let’s go back to the starting point to see how it became popular. The book was published on December 17, 2021, and it did not gain much popularity in Korea at first. Lulu Miller was a new science journalist and a writer just introduced to Korean readers. Though the book contains excellent writing and exciting stories, the one-person publisher, Gom Books, did not have the marketing power to make the book popular. Why Fish Don’t Exist was reviewed in major newspapers several times, but the public did n...

Korean Food Critic’s Pick

One-Liner Quotes   Korean Food Critic’s Pick Korea's Food Books   2022.02.14     Food is the mirror of the past and present. Trending foods show the era's social structure and direction. Luxurious sushi restaurants that boast high popularity are often located in the Gangnam area. This shows Koreans' love of sushi but also disconnection from ties with Japan during the COVID-19 pandemic. In line with sushi restaurants, Korea's old Korean-Western restaurants located all over the country are cherished remnants of Korea's modern history after its independence. It also captures time in the place as people's old tastes remains in the meals they serve.Like Cho Yeong-Gwon's previous book Chinese Cuisine in Korea (CABOOKS), he recollects his experience visiting old Korean-Western restaurants in At a Korean-Western Restaurant. The writer has a unique job as a piano tuner, which is well reflected throughout his book. The food pi...
