[Asia Economy Reporter Seo Mideum] Hobby and leisure platforms 'Frip' and 'Kyobo Bookstore' are hosting a special exhibition for the influencer book talk gathering 'Book Club for Those Who Don't Read Books' and are recruiting participants. The gathering will take place from the 19th of this month until the 17th of next month.


The exhibition is themed around six specially curated books selected by members of the Kyobo Bookstore Prestige Lounge. The selected books are △ Stephen King's 'On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft' △ Lifehacker Jachang's 'The Contrarian' △ Novelist Yoo Eun-sil's 'Pilgrimage House' △ Saito Katsuhiro's 'Dictionary of Units and Symbols' △ Investor Kim Hyun-jun's 'Able' △ Ishimi Ichiro and Koga Fumitake's 'The Courage to Be Disliked.'


The gatherings will be hosted by Frip hosts, who are VIP reading influencers at Kyobo Bookstore that read over 100 books a year.


The difference from existing book talk gatherings is that participants are assumed not to have read the books. After the influencer briefly introduces the book, participants share new insights and applications based on related themes.



Frip lead Jo Jae-hyung said, “We are pleased to prepare gatherings and exhibitions where people can communicate through books together with Kyobo Bookstore,” adding, “We hope the Book Club for Those Who Don't Read Books will be an opportunity to meet like-minded people and start enjoying reading without pressure.”
