Penguin Group has decided to publish the English edition of a South Korean bestseller written by a well-known Buddhist monk.
Ven. Haemin, known as a “healing mentor” among Korean youth, authored the book titled “Things You Can Finally See When You Stop.” Its publisher Sam&Parkers signed a copyright contract with Penguin, which plans to publish the book in the United States and other English-speaking countries.
Penguin said the book will appeal to readers in their 20s and 30s outside of Korea. Part of the content will be edited in consultation with the author to make it more accessible to readers unfamiliar with Korean culture.
The thought-provoking book sold 2.4 million copes in Korea since its release in January 2012.
Ven. Haemin said he would donate all royalties from the book’s overseas sales to charities for poor children and the elderly.
