The INTIME book company licensed the distribution rights of more than 4,000 Korean e-books, including the Legendary Moonlight Sculptor by Nam Heesung, to the overseas edition of the iReader on Nov 18 in Beijing.
The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor, a game-themed fiction with more than a million subscribers, was published in 2007 and has become a favorite of anime lovers.
“The iReader has been the most influential among global reading apps for the last year. More than 350,000 Chinese, English, Korean and Russian e-books were available to overseas users through the IReader app,” the organizer said, adding that Chinese versions of the Korean bestsellers were brought in for domestic ireaders.
Cheng Xiangjun, the CEO of iReader said, “E-book reading will be an essential part of people’s daily lives in the future. And we will try our best to make it happen.”
