Busan International Children's Book Fair

The sea is where life began. The ancestors of every living thing that breathes on Earth came from the sea.

The sea is the cradle that nurtured life. Having come from the sea and flourished, we cross it to meet others like us.

The sea is sometimes rough and difficult to cross, but it connects us. Countless sea routes around the world guide us toward one another.

Along the way, we embark on adventures, discover new things, and meet friends.

The sea is a place of dreams. At sea, we can find treasure islands and defeat pirates.

At sea, we can become anything. Whenever we look at the blue sea, we think of dreams and possibilities and clench our fists with determination.

Gathering books about the sea, we launch the Busan International Children’s Book Fair onto the sea of books.

Meet friends from all over the world at this festival of books in Busan, a city of the sea connected in every direction.
