South Korea will introduce Korean literature, calligraphy and promote the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympic Games at the 28th edition of the Doha International Book Fair scheduled to open on Wednesday at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Centre, the South Korean embassy in Doha has announced. “We will exhibit different kinds of books concerning literature, cuisine, tourism, and the Korean language. These books are well-known throughout the country and overseas,” South Korean ambassador Heung Kyeong Park said. The Korean booth, Park noted, will showcase Korean drama novella “Vegetarian," which was awarded the Man Booker Prize in 2016 and “Please look after Mom,” a best seller not only in Korea but also in foreign countries.
