The inaugural Busan International Children’s Book Fair will be held from Nov. 28 to Dec. 1 at BEXCO in Haeundae-gu District.
The fair will bring together 134 Korean children’s book publishers and organizations, along with 26 international publishing companies from 15 countries. Cultural institutions, including the Busan Museum of Contemporary Art, the Hyundai Museum of Children's Books, and the Busan Library, will also participate, offering a variety of activities for children.
Visitors can look forward to events like author talks and book signings. This year’s theme, "Laputa"—inspired by the flying island in Gulliver’s Travels—encourages visitors to imagine their own worlds of creativity and hope. A total of 400 books will be showcased.
Admission to the exhibition is free, but attendees must register on the BICBF’s official website by Nov. 27 to reserve a ticket.
