Publishing Industry   MCST Announces the 2022-2026 PublishingIndustry Promotion Plan Fostering K-Culture through Books and Building a Cultural Powerhouse through Publishing   2022.11.07   “Books” are the core content that has been with humanity for a long period of time. However, the domain of each type of content and the boundary between them have become unclear these days. Today, publishers are not just coming up with publishable content, but are expanding their business into e-books and audiobooks, not to mention other cultural fields such as the film, game, and music industries. As such, the publishing industry takes on different content-based roles, crossing the traditional frontier of “print books.”However, unlike the diversified channels for publishing content, readership is falling every year. People now prefer video services like TV, YouTube, and Netflix rather than books. The average annual percentage of Koreans reading books is 47.5...
