"We received numerous inquiries regarding the publication of the book in English after the book was released in Korea last year. The book will guide foreigners on the past and current traditions of Korea", an official from publication house Hollym Corp., Publishers was quoted as saying.
Meanwhile, the publication of "A Journey in Search of Korea's Beauty", will be announced at a bazaar event held today by the Seoul International Women's Association.
