Jae: International Publication

Currently reading a Korean book that can be roughly translated to "When the Moon Embraces the Sun". It's a historical fiction novel about a Prince and a servant/shaman set in the time in ancient Korea. Out of curiosity, I checked the pages with information about the publishing companies. Apparently, the publishing company's name can be translated to "Blue Books". Unfortunately, I am not particularly knowledgable about the publishing companies in Korea. But from experience, there are a lot of independent and small business bookstores in comparison to the U.S. Thinking about how similar and different are publishing companies are internationally.
