If You Apply This Month, Published Next Month... Launch of the First Issue of 'Monthly Genre Novel' View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Seomideum] Gojeunok ENT, a developer specializing in genre novels and web novels, has published the inaugural issue of 'Genre Novel of the Month.' It is characterized by taking less than two months from the start of the contest to publication. Generally, it takes at least six months to a year for contest anthologies to be released.


The inaugural issue contains six selected works chosen after about 25 days of submissions and evaluations by story planners. ▲ A little guest visiting a store that changed from a 'family restoration center' to a 'death restoration center' by a single stroke difference ('Gajok Bokwonsso' by Ilwon Lee) ▲ A story of a man and woman reunited after 5,000 years ('Sarang-ui Yutonggihan' by Jinyoung Jeong) ▲ The truth about people who look like me popping up here and there ('Jageun Geotdeul-ui Requiem' by Yujin Beom) ▲ The true meaning of acting told by an AI actor ('Yeongisu-eop' by Gukcheong Pyo) ▲ A story tracing the truth of a mysterious silhouette witnessed in a half-dream state ('Dalbit Sok-ui Akmong' by Hyewon Seol) ▲ The secret of an unpleasant and damp black bag held by a man who suddenly appeared ('Huin Sal Saengseon' by Sangho Park).


Park Miae, PD of Gojeunok ENT in charge of the inaugural issue, said, "'Genre Novel of the Month' hopes to become a joyful adventure that readers look forward to every month and a special meal encountered once a month."



The contest is currently ongoing, and the second anthology will be published at the end of July. In December, based on works published in 'Genre Novel of the Month,' a reader jury will select and publish the 'Genre Novel of the Year.'
