Synergy, strength, dynamism; South Korea-US alliance at 70
Seventy years is a long time, especially for a military alliance between friends. There are few in the world notably including the Atlantic Alliance, forming NATO in 1949. But in the case of East Asia, the strategic and economic links which emerged from the cauldron of the Korean War ending in 1953, created an extraordinary success story recently celebrated by South Korean Pr...

On mega-regional trade agreements - why they make sense
On mega-regional trade agreements - why they make sense
With the United Kingdom reaching an agreement to join the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), mega-regionalism is back in the discourse. Interestingly, the U.K. is neither an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) country, nor a founding negotiating member of the agreement, nor one that shares the Pacific.

Thailand: Another round?
Thailand: Another round?
There have been occasional violent episodes in Thai politics and one recent massacre (2010), but the struggle for a genuine democracy has usually been relatively restrained. Maybe that is why it has continued so long.

1,000 won breakfast
When the news of expanding the “1,000 won breakfast” offer at colleges rode the airwaves recently, a memory flashed back to me from 1987. As a freshman in college in Seoul, the chance to eat out at affordably priced canteens and eateries outside was a newfound joy.

Washington Declaration: no nuclear redeployment in South Korea
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was warmly welcomed by U.S. President Joe Biden in Washington last week as he made the first state visit to the United States since Lee Myung-bak's in 2011. As he voluntarily sewed the historical disputes with Japan up in March, all eyes were on his visit to Washington in the expectation of getting remuneration from the U.S. president such...

Wisdom of 'Cheugugi' in weather forecasting
Wisdom of 'Cheugugi' in weather forecasting
Korea has long been an advanced country in meteorology, taking changes in weather seriously and making efforts to understand weather scientifically. A prime example is the rain gauge called the “Cheugugi,” which was invented in Korea in 1441.

Investing in forward-looking Korea-U.S. alliance
A Korean president's visit to Washington, D.C., always draws the heavy attention of the nation and those from all walks of life. The visit of President Yoon Suk Yeol to the United States raised the expectations of the Korean people as it was only the second state visit of the Biden-Harris administration and the first of such in 12 years for a Korean president, especially to c...

Should South Korea play hard in geopolitical diplomacy?
Throughout its history, Korea has faced geopolitical challenges from regional neighbors. Korea's past rulers have struggled to protect the nation's sovereignty amid regional geopolitical conflicts.

It's not all in a title
I'm not a fan of Camilla's title change. She will soon ascend from Camilla Queen Consort to Queen Camilla. This is solely because she is the monarch's wife. I don't agree with Charles in naming Camilla Queen. Why? Because she and he immorally carried on a marriage-breaking affair while he enthralled the world with Diana, his first wife - jealous though he was of her.
