Seoul International Writers' Festival (서울국제작가축제)
The Seoul International Writers' Festival, a premier literary event in Seoul, has been held biennially since 2006 with the aim of globalizing Korean literature and fostering international cultural exchange. Renowned writers from around the world and their Korean counterparts gather to engage with readers through a diverse program of lectures, dialogues, readings, and workshops. The festival offers a unique opportunity to explore the trends in contemporary literature and hear from authors with varied cultural backgrounds, thereby elevating the status of Korean literature. Beyond simply introducing literary works, it encourages deep reflection on humanity and society through literature and creates a space that respects cultural diversity. Recently, the festival has enhanced accessibility by incorporating online, non-face-to-face programs, appealing not only to literature enthusiasts but also to the general public.
