Eidos Publishing House

Korean Publishers   Eidos Publishing House Contemplate Deeper, Imagine More Freely   2023.11.06   The word eidos is a concept in philosophy that refers to external appearance and shape.

The MZ Generation Reads New Non-Fiction

Topic   The MZ Generation Reads New Non-Fiction   2021.09.06   When did the golden age of non-fiction begin?   There is a genre that boasts of being at the best place in the bookstores. It is non-fiction, in particular essays, a genre where people speak frankly about their personal stories."The golden era of non-fiction has arrived" has become too clich?. Essays were once treated as "useless writings" until the beginning of the 2000s, when novels or books about money and economics prevailed in the markets. However, as mega-hit essay collections emerged entering the 2010s, such underestimation dissipated. Publishers, who belatedly realized that essays make money, have begun to fiercely launch essay collections into the market.For example, Kim Nan-Do’s You Become an Adult After Wavering for Thousand Times (Munhakdongne Publishing), Hyemin Sunim’s The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down (Suo Books), Lee Byung-Ryul’s Attraction (Dal Publishers), and Lee Oi-Su...

We make so many unrealistic things possible thanks to the imagination. We fly through the sky, and we walk under the sea. Korean fantasy began to flourish when computers and the Internet began to be distributed across the country in the mid-1990s. As novels serialized on online platforms that only provided writing and reading services gained more popularity and proved their commercial values, the publication of fantasy novels started to occur in earnest. Fandoms emerged as fantasy books were distributed to local book lenders in massive amounts. The spread of smartphones and tablets in 2010 led to the full development of fantasy novels and web-novels. Fantasy as a genre has been steadily gathering fanatics, expanding its universe and combining with other genres such as martial arts fan...
