Interview with Magazine B Publisher Suyong Joh
On Magazine B’s 4th anniversary, Publisher Suyong Joh gave an extensive interview about the founding, philosophy and future of the magazine:
Among the excerpts (emphasis added):
“[Magazine B] also deals with the values and philosophy of each brand… We wish to inspire the readers who are conceiving their own brands in particular. In fact, Magazine B doesn’t analyze a brand’s growth factors or its key to success; instead, we want to focus on the attitude and awareness of the brand-lovers, the reason why they love it and the way how they feel towards it. Each brand we’ve selected takes its own path to make itself as a good brand; therefore, it’s no use trying to follow or copy the logos, uniforms, or promotion strategy of the brand. Rather, you have to focus on the attitude and philosophy.”
“What the brands that Magazine B has been focused on have in common is that their attitudes and philosophies don’t change over time.”

Interview Eunsung Park, Editor in Chief
Magazine B’s long time Editor in Chief Eunsung recently gave an interview about her approach to editing, along with some insights about Magazine B’s philosophy and approach.
Among the excerpts (emphasis added):
Trying to figure out how we’ll look at the brand is as difficult as selecting the brand itself. If we choose to focus on financial success, it would be no different from a finance magazine, and if we focus on the product, it would be no different from a brand catalogue. We mostly have our attention on the people who make the brand, use the brand, and have been closely related to the brand for many years, to have the opportunity to look at a brand from all these different perspectives.
