What happened
On October 17, South Korea's Literature Translation Institute of Korea (LTI Korea) said it had identified 21 works by Korean writers on the list of books eligible for compensation posted on Anthropic's copyright-infringement settlement site, and notified the authors. Named works include books by Kim Ae-ran, Kim Young-ha, Kim Suum, Shin Kyung-sook, Han Kang, Hwang Sun-mi and Hwang Sok-yong (Hwang Seok-young).
Context
Anthropic settled the US class-action lawsuit over allegedly pirated book training data in July 2026, agreeing to pay $1.5 billion. About 500,000 titles are eligible for compensation at roughly $3,000 per work; Korean authors can receive compensation by joining the claims process.
Institutional response
LTI Korea said it will work with copyright-related institutions to "actively support legal action if necessary so that authors can receive fair compensation." The Korean Publishers Association separately issued an appeal urging transparent disclosure of AI companies' use of copyrighted works and fair compensation, stating: "Those who actually made the books do not even know when, how, or which AI used their works."
