[Asia Economy Reporter Seo Mideum] Books on spring minimalism, cleaning, and gardening are gaining popularity. According to the online bookstore Interpark, sales of books in the categories of organizing, cleaning, and gardening increased by 35% from April 1 to 11 compared to the same period in the previous month.


Interpark is holding a special exhibition titled “Spring Means Light and Clean Organizing” until the end of May, gathering books by space experts in each field to meet customer demand.

Key books related to minimal life include ▲ “I Decided to Live Simply,” which introduces 12 life changes after discarding possessions ▲ “Eco Minimal Living Practice,” which tells the story of a maximalist becoming the best minimal housekeeper ▲ “Wise Minimal Life,” which introduces a minimal life anyone can practice wisely, simply, and consistently.


For those determined to become minimal, practical organizing know-how books include ▲ “The Best Interior Is Organizing” by organizing expert Jeong Heesook ▲ “We Organize Your Life,” sharing stories about space and life by space expert CEO Lee Ji-young ▲ “How People Who Organize Well Do It,” which contains room organizing know-how starting with a few rules.


There are also various gardening books to help even those with a “brown thumb” become plant caretakers. These include ▲ “I Decided to Grow Myself as a Plant,” a self-gardening project to nurture oneself amid harmful things ▲ “Plant Counseling,” a guide for plant caretakers who want to do well from the start ▲ “If I Can Grow Green Plants Well, I Have No Wishes,” a 4-week gardening class for absolute beginners who cannot even grow cacti.



Song Hyun-joo, deputy head of Interpark’s book business team, said, “As we have spent a long pandemic era, interest and meaning in indoor spaces have grown, making books related to cleaning, organizing, and gardening more abundant than ever.” She added, “We hope this spring will bring vitality not only to homes but also to readers’ minds and lives through a single book that shares the trials and experiences of various space experts.”
