Kyobo Bookstore's third week of October bestseller list kept 'Trend Korea 2026' at No.1 for the fourth straight week. Laszlo Krasznahorkai's challenging novel 'Satantango' climbed to No.2 after a surge in interest following the author's Nobel Prize; it sold especially well among readers in their 30s (29.3%), with solid purchases from both 20s and 40s. Fan-driven new releases also performed strongly: trot singer Lee Chan-won's photo essay 'Chanan' debuted at No.4 with a primary buyer base of women over 50, and fantasy comic 'The Trickcal'—expanding the world of mobile game 'Trickcal Revive'—entered at No.6, buoyed by game fans.
