[Asia Economy Reporter Seo Mideum] Kim Young-ha's 'Farewell' has ranked first overall for two consecutive weeks. Although it topped the charts last week as well, its sales doubled due to significant influence from appearances on TV entertainment programs. Additionally, the author has been gaining attention by directly engaging with readers through SNS activities and conducting live broadcasts on the last day of every month.
Also, the new book 'Choi Jae-cheon's Study' by ecologist Choi Jae-cheon, who appeared on the same program, was released this week and ranked 26th overall, attracting readers' interest.
New releases in the economy and business management category entered the top ranks side by side, drawing attention. Oh Geon-young's 'Surviving Inflation' entered at 4th overall, and Ray Dalio's 'The Changing World Order' ranked 7th overall. There is a notable interest in the investment market that changes according to not only the Korean economy but also global economic trends.
In the essay category, which had been sluggish for a while, books by authors with fandoms rose to the top ranks, catching attention. 'Moon Jae-in's Consolation' ranked 6th overall, and Kim Da-seul's 'Managing Your Mood Manages Your Life' was loved as writing that represents readers' feelings, rising 10 places to 8th overall.
