About the festival
The Seoul International Writers' Festival is a global literary festival that has been held since 2006 to promote the exchange between Korean and world literature. Celebrating its 15th edition in 2026, the festival creates a special venue where writers, readers, and various languages and stories come together in one place. It offers a rich program of dialogues, workshops, and exhibitions, allowing participants to experience literature more closely with both domestic writers and international authors who are not easily accessible. At the festival, where books, people, languages, and emotions intersect, attendees can have a profound literary experience that is only possible between people under the question 'Who are you?'
