Export Cases of Language Books Developed in Korea

Export Cases of Language Books Developed in Korea   2021.02.08       It is not an exaggeration to say that most language books developed in Korea are focused on English education and that most of the exported books are English books for children and elementary schoolers. Language books made in Korea consist of multiple series and are categorized into different age groups and levels, not to mention the content and services provided alongside them.

And as always, I packed one or two books in my bag. This year was no different from the last. One half-read novel and another essay collection that had been sitting on my shelf for ages. This time, I told myself, I would definitely finish them.   Yet, the moment I actually sat under the parasol and opened a book, the sound of the waves would reach my ears. The distant laughter of children playing echoed from afar. As the sun began to dip, the horizon would be dyed in shades of orange. Over and over, I found myself lifting my eyes from the pages.   “I need to read.” &n...

Book Grocery   Midnight Light:Can Light Become Pollution?     2026.06     A Story from an Office Worker Living in Donggyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul:   At some point, massive electronic billboards began taking over the building facades along the streets near Hongik University Station.

Passersby often call it spectacular or find themselves captivated by the latest advertisements, but I look at these billboards through a slightly different lens.   “It is so bright that the night no longer feels like night.”   While others merely catch a fleeting glimpse of these screens as they walk past, I am forced to look down at them from my apartment window every single day. From where I stand, these neon monoliths do not e...
