[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] Author Hwang Boreum, who gained great attention with the publication of "Welcome, Hyunam-dong Bookstore," will visit Nam-gu, Gwangju on the 13th to spend time communicating with residents through books.
On the 3rd, Nam-gu announced, "We have prepared a meeting time with the popular author Hwang to motivate local residents to read," and added, "We are accepting applications from those interested."
The special lecture by the author will be held for about two hours starting at 2 p.m. on the 13th at the cultural performance hall on the basement first floor of the Youth Library, a public library.
On that day, he plans to introduce the message he wanted to convey to readers through his novel "Welcome, Hyunam-dong Bookstore" and talk about the characters appearing in the novel.
"Welcome, Hyunam-dong Bookstore," which has received great love as the first publication of this year, is the top work in the novel category of this year's book chosen by bookstore owners.
This novel was first introduced in 2019 on the writing platform "Brunch" and later released through the e-book subscription service "Millie's Library."
Due to overwhelming requests from readers, author Hwang published a paper book this year and became the protagonist of a reverse-hit myth by ranking on the comprehensive bestseller list for 20 consecutive weeks.
Readers have received warm comfort through the book and have expressed great resonance through the stories of the characters in the novel.
The number of participants for the special lecture is limited to 30 people on a first-come, first-served basis. Residents wishing to participate can submit an application form for the cultural program on the Nam-gu Integrated Library website.
