Millie's Library Reveals 'March Library' Chart... 'Bulpeonhan Pyeonuijeom' Tops the List View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Seomideum] The reading platform Millie's Library announced the 'March Library Picks by Millie's Library Members' chart.


In March, books in the science category showed a unique trend, ranking second overall. The nonfiction book "Fish Do Not Exist," written by a science journalist, received praise for its elegant combination of science and philosophy, maintaining popularity not only in major offline bookstores but also on Millie's Library. "12 1/2 Chapters and 12 Principles for Success," which set a world-first publishing industry record with 1 million pre-orders within 24 hours, also attracted great attention by ranking fourth on Millie's Library March chart.


Millie Original content, which has been producing bestsellers consecutively, continues its strong performance based on excellent quality. "Welcome to Hyunamdong Bookstore," first published last year as a Millie Original and still ranking high among bestsellers, recently rose to fifth place with the newly released audiobook. The new Millie Original content, director Yoon Ga-eun's essay collection "Hohoho," ranked third on Millie's Library within about a month of publication and entered the rankings in offline bookstores as well, showing a similar trend to the "Uncomfortable Convenience Store" and "Welcome to Hyunamdong Bookstore" syndromes that spread by word of mouth on Millie's Library and became bestsellers.


Millie's Library recently added a feature allowing members to not only discover and read good books within the app but also own them as physical copies. By clicking the "Go to Buy Paperback" button provided for each book, users are directly linked to the page where they can purchase the book at Youngpoong Bookstore. Millie's Library expects that this feature will enable many people to conveniently continue their reading experience from online to offline.



In March, it was also notable that as the number of content titles increased, the reasons and methods for reading gradually diversified, highlighting a trend. The dialogue collection "Lee Eoryeong's Last Lesson" by the late Professor Lee Eoryeong, who passed away last month, was reintroduced in this month's "Millie Live" broadcast and settled at sixth place after a resurgence. As more readers sought to enjoy memorable lines from their favorite dramas in writing to savor the lingering emotions, the script collection for "Our Beloved Summer" ranked tenth on the chart. This uncut script collection, which includes scenes not covered in the broadcast, received an even warmer response from drama fans.
