No more pathetic politics
In 1995, Samsung Group Chairman Lee Kun-hee angered the political community by saying, “Korea's businesses are second rate by global standards, but its government is third rate, and its politics is fourth rate.”

Central bank in dilemma
In anticipation of a possible slowdown in surging inflation, the central Bank of Korea (BOK) kept the key interest rate unchanged at 3.5 percent last week. The BOK's decision put an end to seven straight rate hikes that have taken place since August 2021.

In its 5,000-year history, this country's global economic and cultural influence has never been more significant than now.

Opposition at crossroads
Prosecutors sought an arrest warrant for Democratic Party of Korea (DPK) Chairman Rep. Lee Jae-myung on charges of corruption and bribery Thursday. Lee has been accused of breaching his duties, infringing upon laws pertinent to conflicts of interest, taking bribes and hiding profits generated from crimes.

Save our children
