한말 신문광고를 유심히 살펴보면 최최의 전문적인 서적상이라 할 '대동서시'가 문을 연 1896년 이후부터 한일합방 때까지의 15년간, 경향 각지에 무려 70여곳의 서점이 있었던 것으로 확인된다. 이는 경술국치를 전후한 시기에 고작 10여개의 서점이 서울에서 영업을 하고 있었다는 지금까지의 통설을 크게 수정한다는 점에서 눈길을 끈다.

그 동안 광고 매체전략에 있어 텔레비전.라디오.신문.잡지는 흔히 '4대매체'라 불리며 가장 중요한 홍보 수단으로 인식돼 왔다. 그러나 이 같은 전통적 카테고리를 허물고 새롭게 주류를 형성하고 있는 분야가 있으니 바로 '사인(SIGN)'이다. 업계에서는 흔히 옥외광고로 불리며 동일한 개념으로 통용되고 있다. 최근엔 텔레비전.신문과 함께 '3대매체'로 불릴 만큼 그 영향력은 점차 확대되고 있다.

The influx of modern culture in the early 20th century in Korea led to numerous changes in the country's ginseng industry. With the development of ginseng cultivation technology and commerce, the production and consumption of ginseng increased, and various ginseng products were developed using modern manufacturing technology. Consequently, competition for the sales of these products became fierce. At that time, newspaper advertisements showed detailed trends in the development and sales competition of ginseng products. Before 1920, however, there were few advertisements of ginseng in newspapers. This is thought to be because newspapers had not yet been generalized, and the ginseng industry had not developed that much. Ginseng advertisements started to revitalize in the early 1920s after the launch of the Korean daily newspapers Dong-A Ilbo and Chosun Ilbo. Such advertisements in this period focused on emphasizing the traditional efficacy of Oriental medicine and the mysterious effects of ginseng. There were many advertisements for products that prescribed the combination of ginseng and deer antler, indicating the great popularity of this prescription at the time. Furthermore, advertisements showed many personal experience stories about taking such products. Mail order and telemarketing sales were already widely used in the 1920s . In 1925, there were advertisements that ginseng products were delivered every day. The advertisements revealed that ginseng roots were classified more elaborately than they are now according to size and quality. Ginseng products in the 1920s did not deviate significantly from the scope of traditional Oriental medicine formulations such as liquid medicine, pill, and concentrated extract. In the 1930s, ginseng advertisements became more active. At this time, experts such as university professors and doctors in medicine or in pharmacy appeared in the advertisements. They recommended ginseng products or explained the ingredients and medicinal effects of the products. Even their experimental notes based on scientific research results appeared in the advertisements to enhance the reliability of the ginseng products. In 1931, modern tablet advertisements appeared. Ginseng products supplemented with vitamins and other specific ingredients as well as ginseng thin rice gruel for the sick appeared at this time. In 1938, ginseng advertisements became more popular, and advertisements using talents as models, such as dancer Choi Seunghee or famous movie stars, models appeared. Ginseng advertisements in the 1920s and 1930s clearly show a side of our rapidly changing society at the time.
