Korean Folk Tales and Picture Books: Spreading Korean Culture into the World

Special Project   [English Books in Korea ③] Korean Folk Tales and Picture Books:Spreading Korean Culture into the World Introduction of Korean folk tales and picture books published in English   2024.08.05   Since its founding in 1963, “Hollym,” the English-language brand of “Hollym Corp., Publishers,” has been publishing and exporting English-language books introducing Korean culture to the world with the catchphrase, “Books on Korea to the World.” In 1977, it established a local subsidiary, “Hollym International Corp.” in New Jersey in the US, and has set up overseas distributors around the world to accelerate book exports.From the late 1900s to the early 2000s, not many people knew where Korea was located, or even if it existed at all. It was a difficult time for people to make a living, so the domestic publishing industry could not be developed systematically; it was rare for Korean books to be exported and translated and published i...

Factors Behind the Success of Korean Webtoons and Webnovels in the Global Marketplace

Export Case   Factors Behind the Success of Korean Webtoons and Webnovelsin the Global Marketplace Based on the Southeast Asian market, including Thailand   2024.08.05   Korean webtoons and webnovels are making waves in the global content market. In particular, they are drawing global attention with great success in Southeast Asian countries, such as Thailand.The scalability of secondary use of IP is the most notable factor these days. Many webnovels and webtoons are being adapted into various media, such as dramas, movies, and games, providing publishers and media companies with additional opportunities for monetization. This, coupled with the influence of the Korean Wave, is creating a synergistic effect. The global popularity of K-Pop and Korean dramas has increased worldwide interest in Korean culture, and this has naturally led to a greater interest in Korean webnovels and webtoons. As you can see in the image below, this is clearly evident in the statistics...

Korea Today and the Charm of Korean Culture

Special Project   [English Books in Korea ①] Korea Today and the Charm of Korean Culture   2024.06.03   I’m pleased to be able to introduce the English edition of my book about Korea through this interview. This is because such an opportunity does not come around often, and because through this, I can draw the attention of the industry and readers in this harsh climate where the number of English books about Korea is decreasing rather than increasing.One keyword that automatically comes to mind when you think of English books about Korea is “Kinokuniya” bookstores in Japan. I was literally overwhelmed by the number of English books about Japan that I saw at Kinokuniya Bookstore in Japantown, San Francisco, US. On the other hand, the number of English books published in Korea is far too little, and the fields are focused on culture and language, with very few on economics, society, practical skills, and people. What’s more, the number of titles is shrinking.M...

Understanding Today’s Korean Society

One-Liner Quotes   Understanding Today’s Korean Society A Sociologist’s Pick   2024.06.03   Nho Myung-Woo is a sociologist teaching sociology at Ajou University and the owner of Nieun Bookstore, a bookstore specializing in humanities and social sciences books.     Characters are one of the oldest forms of human media. The way we produce text with letters takes many forms, depending on each region’s historical traditions and culture. In alphabetic cultures that use a phonetic writing system, text is written horizontally from left to right. Alphabetic cultures write in syllables, rather than grouping syllables together and representing them in phonetic units. In contrast, East Asia’s Chinese character cultures adopted vertical writing, and it has been a long-standing cultural tradition.The vertical writing style branched out into many different forms in the 20th century, with different countries making ...
