Arko (Korea Arts & Culture Education Service) will run 'Harim’s Four Seasons Literary Shelf' at its main Arko Hall in Naju, Jeollanam-do. The year-long program, organized and hosted by singer-songwriter and cultural producer Harim, includes five sessions aligned with each season. Each session features a seasonal theme and invites authors for book talks and readings. The opening event on Feb 3, themed 'Beginning, Well-wishes' ahead of Lunar New Year (Seollal), will feature popular poet Na Tae-ju and focus on his essay 'Live Cherishing Yourself' to offer comfort and fresh starts for those weary of competitive society. Interest was high, with about 230 registrations within a day. The program extends Arko’s efforts to bring 'Literature Week (Munhak Jookan)' beyond Daehangno to regional communities and ties into 'Literature Week 2026' main events planned in Seoul in September. More details are on Arko’s website.
