The Seoul International Book Fair is South Korea's main book event and the practical meeting place for Korean publishers, authors, and readers. The Korean Publishers Association hosts it at COEX in Gangnam. Trade calendars list 16–20 June 2027, a Wednesday-to-Sunday run in the same shape as recent editions; confirm the hours on sibf.or.kr once the 2027 page replaces the 2026 site. Copyright talks sit beside a public festival of Korean and international titles, author stages, and bookseller stands. The fair is where foreign houses meet Korean rights buyers and where Korean literature is shown to visiting publishers. For BooksAffair it is the week to build relationships with Korean publishers, translators, and the reading community that fills COEX. The 2026 fair ran 24–28 June at the same venue, which is why a mid-to-late June window is the right planning assumption.
