Between The Lines is a student-run organization,
created by a group of talented, passionate and ambitious young writers and artists. The main project of the organization is the biannual literary magazine which Initially began as a literary circle in NLCS Jeju, where students shared and critiqued each other’ s work and formed a small school-funded publication. Between The Lines is now reaching the wider public with its vision of inspiring more readers and supporting more writers and artists. The publication is in both in English and Korean, and is the first and only national literary magazine devoted to publishing creative works by the students in Korea. The ultimate aim of the organization is to create an artistic and creative community of Korean youth, that will act as a springboard for future initiative projects like the literary magazine.
The biannual webzine publication features creative writing( kor, eng), analytical writing( kor, eng), reviews( kor, eng), interviews( kor, eng), visual art, photography, and lyrics with QR codes for music. The magazine is submission-based, accepting works from students from worldwide. The magazine is entirely student-run, student-edited and student-designed.
Our aim is to create an art work as a whole that collaborates and synthesizes different media of arts in a creative and innovative way.
To provide a platform where talented and passionate creative writers and artists in English can publish their works and develop their talents
To create a community of writers and artists to share their interest and passion and to create a youthful creative culture
To spread the value of‘ sharing art’ by participating in the Copygift movement in Korea. To encourage more Korean students to engage in artistic and creative crafting.
Currently, the magazine constitutes the core part of the organization. However, the ultimate aim of the organization is to create a literary and artistic community where even bigger and more diversified projects can spring from.
However, as a non-profit, student-run organisation, Between The Lines financially depends entirely on social funding and sponsors. Our sponsors tend to be companies and institutions with interest in cultivating and nurturing future artists and writers.
