[talk] They say that the books I'm reading these days are seeing a surge in sales. That's amazing!

'The First Translation of Buddha's Words', which contains the words of Buddha, has seen a surge in sales due to the influence of Jang Won-young, a member of girl group I.V.E.

According to Yes24, a cultural content platform, on the 19th, after Jang Won-young recommended 'The Words of the Buddha' on a broadcast program on the 15th, sales increased by about 20 times (1983.3%) compared to the previous day (14th).

The ranking, which was outside the top 100, rose to 3rd place in the daily comprehensive bestseller list as of the 16th.

Ryunosuke Koike's 'The First Translation of the Buddha's Words' is a book that reinterprets the Buddha's words in modern language and has become popular among readers in their 20s and 30s.
