“문학, 내게 스미다”　전주 호남문고, 상주작가 문학프로그램 운영

Jeonju Honam Bookstore will be operating a residency writer literature program that local residents can participate in for free from this month until November.

This program was selected through the open call for the Korea Culture and Arts Council's '2026 Residency Writer Support Project,' and poet Kim Seong-cheol will plan and operate the program 'Literature, Resonating with Me' for 7 months.

The residency writer support project 'Literature, Resonating with Me' consists of various programs such as poetry creation, late-night poetry book exploration, invited writer lectures, creating a space for literary communication with the local residents. Key events include the bi-weekly 'Poetry Twisting Creation Studio' on Saturdays, bi-weekly 'Tuesday Late-night Poetry Book Exploration,' and monthly last Friday conversations with the residency writer, including book review meetings on recommended books.

Poet Kim Seong-cheol, selected as the residency writer, made his debut through the Yeongnam Ilbo Shinchun Literature Contest in 2006. His representative poetry collections include "The Scent of Moonlight Dancing," and "The Fragrance of the Moon from the Field of Grass." He was also selected as the Honam Bookstore residency writer for 2025 and 2026.

Choi Hong-seok, the representative of Honam Bookstore, stated, "The residency writer program was created to allow writers and local residents to meet directly, write, read books, and enjoy literature in their daily lives," and expressed his hope that "Honam Bookstore will establish itself as a hub of local literature where anyone can immerse themselves in literature through books."

Citizens who wish to participate in the Honam Bookstore literature program can apply through Honam Bookstore's KakaoTalk or Instagram, or at the bookstore.
