What Comes After Today’s Korean-Style Healing Novels?

Topic   What Comes After Today’s Korean-Style Healing Novels?   2024.10.07   “While the so-called ‘Korean style healing novels’ are selling well these days, trends always change. This craze will be replaced with a new trend sooner or later.” Barbara J. Zitwer, a literary agent working across English-speaking countries, said so in a recent interview. Zitwer is an American who has been exporting Korean literature overseas for about 20 years and is often referred to as a “Korean literature ambassador.” She explains that the phenomenon of Korean-style healing novels being so popular not only in Korea, but also abroad, is something that may change at any time soon. “At first, everyone read pure literature,” she said, “and then the trend shifted to healing novels.” While it may seem that the popularity of Korean literature across all genres has grown on the surface, Zitwer says that international readers switched genres when they got tired of...

He is currently publishing the monthly magazine Magazine Bathhouse (Site Branding) that features the stories of public bathhouses in neighborhoods.   As an urban branding director, I look at every corner of our cities, and I always realize that there are people’s stories at the end of it all. Thinking that the memory of a city is the memory of a human being, I have gotten into the habit of looking into the time, people, and spaces of a city before I go about urban branding. The records of people’s lives and spaces are a good reference, and reading them gives me an apportunity to reflect on myself.     Jeon Mong-Gag’s photobook Yunmi’s Album: From the Cradle to the Wedding (Photo Net) is a record of his daughter Yunmi ...

Korean Readers’ Picks in the First Half of 2024

Topic   Korean Readers’ Picks in the First Half of 2024   2024.09.02   According to the “2023 National Reading Survey” announced by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism in Korea, the overall reading rate was observed to be 43.0%, the lowest since the survey was initiated in 1994. This means that 6 out of 10 adults don’t even read a single e-book or audiobook, let alone a paper book. The shrinking of the reading population, which forms the foundation for the publishing market, and the aging population have been issues in Korea for quite a long time. However, it was indeed a shocking figure for the publishing industry as it expected to see a steady increase in the reading population since it enjoyed a boom during the pandemic compared to other industries.In the first half of the year, the reduction in newly published titles, driven by a contracting publishing market, alongside the enduring popularity of long-time bestsellers, played a si...
