K-BOOKフェスティバル

K-BOOK Festival is a literary and cultural event in Japan for people who love Korean books and want to read and learn more about them. It brings readers together with the people who create, translate, edit, publish, and share K-BOOKs, offering opportunities to hear authors speak, discover the stories behind book design and production, and connect with others who share an interest in Korean literature and culture.

The festival features stage talks, readings, discussions, and other events, with audiences able to attend in person or watch selected programs through the official YouTube channel. Participating publishers present books across a wide range of genres, including fiction, essays, humanities, entertainment, children’s literature, and Korean-language learning. The event also includes Korean publishers and vendors offering cultural goods and Korean food and refreshments.

Organized by the K-BOOK Festival Executive Committee, with support from the K-BOOK Promotion Association and the Korea Foundation, the festival provides a welcoming space to explore Korean books and the people behind them.
