Drawing on Pascale Casanova’s model of the structure of the world literary space and her discussion of the role of translating mediators, this study examines the current position of Korean web novels within the global literary field, as well as the role of translation mediators in facilitating their movement from the periphery to the center. The analysis demonstrates that web novels display characteristics that diverge markedly from literary norms. Rather than relying on traditional forms of literary capital, they are more strongly shaped by commercial success and market principles. Web novels thus emerge as a genre in which digital platforms play a highly visible and influential mediating role. With regard to the translation of Korean web novels, the findings reveal that the role of ‘ordinary mediators’, who receive limited attention in Casanova’s model, is particularly salient in this context. At the same time, web novel platforms, which possess considerable literary and symbolic capital in the eyes of readers and fans, play a crucial part in the circulation and legitimization of these works. This study ultimately argues that the emergence of new literary forms such as web novels calls for a reconsideration and partial revision of established theories of world literature.
