Jordan Peterson’s book becomes a best-seller in Korea

—Canadian psychologist’s self-help book sees explosive sales as gender war deepens divide between sexes

'Sung Ki-hoon, chief editor at Maven, suspects a growing number of men who feel at a disadvantage is behind Peterson’s popularity. The author rose to fame as an ardent critic of left-wing identity politics.

“In my opinion, the fundamental reason (behind his popularity) is the fact that more men feel they are facing reverse discrimination compared to women,” Sung told The Korea Herald.

He added that Peterson has emerged as a figure of masculinity who presents himself as “intellectual” and “graceful.”

According to Maven’s sales figures, men in their late 20s and early 30s are the biggest buyers of the book, a stark contrast to the average readership demographic in Korea dominated by women.'
