Description: This is a VR Library which contains 30 Korean and 5 English novellas, content provided by National Library of Korea. Experience reading inside Jibokjae Gyeongbokgung Palace, at the garden of National Library of Korea and under the sea.
Review: ‘VR Library: Beyond Reading’ is a fairly simple virtual reading app that features 35 novels in total, but 30 of them are in Korean and only 5 in English. The virtual environment you get to read them is in quite nice as it is the Gyeongbokgung Palace in Jibokjae which is one of the oldest public libraries in Seoul. Personally, I am not a fan of reading books in VR as the resolution of most VR headsets simply isn’t good enough. I get that at least a few people will enjoy using this app and it is free after all, but it’s not something I feel I can personally recommend even if it costs nothing to try.
