Achievement Rate 2000%, Funding Amount 200 Million KRW... Spotlight on Yes24 Book Funding

[Asia Economy Reporter Seo Mideum] Yes24 bookstore announced on the 10th that the Japanese shoujo manga 'Skip and Loafer' Volumes 1 and 2 achieved 2001% of their funding goal in the book funding conducted last November. Within two weeks of funding, it recorded 40 million KRW in funding amount and a scale of 2,500 copies.

The funding was conducted as part of the 'Graejebonso' project, which republishes sold-out or out-of-print books or publishes books that had not been introduced domestically.

Through this, the web novel 'Geomeunmeori Migun Daewonsu' also reached its funding goal of 10 million KRW on the first day of funding. The funding achievement rate was 2250%, with a funding amount of 220 million KRW. 'Please Take Care of the Cat: 20th Anniversary Archive' also achieved a high achievement rate of 2191%.

In addition, Yes24 is providing various opportunities for diverse books to gain attention. In December last year, they held the '2022 Chaek-a Mianhae' exhibition in collaboration with 38 publishers to introduce good books that were regrettably not well known. It targeted 46 books in the humanities, social sciences, history, and natural sciences published over the year that had not gone into reprint, and each publisher conveyed sincerity through handwritten letters. Books such as ▲‘The Reason We Can't Help Falling in Love’ ▲‘The History of Taming Fruits’ ▲‘You Did Your Best Then’ ▲‘Son Seok-hee's Anchor Briefing 1’ ▲‘The Lie of Saving the Earth’ were re-highlighted.
