Local publisher Owall Communications has launched a package of fairy tale books written in English in an ambitious drive to sell them in foreign countries.
The company, headed by Song Jun-sik, said Friday that the package has 30 books, 14 story-telling CDs and an animation DVD. The target readers range from preschool children to primary school students, the company said. The Chinese version of the books is set to be released soon, it added.
“We have made a great effort to make the books the best in quality,” Song said in a statement. “I expect many parents will be interested in the premium fairy tale books.”
The Korean version of the books was launched in February and hit the jackpot on online social commerce websites. The English-written package is priced at 285,000 won ($253).
