Are we ready for N. Korea attack?

North Korean leader Kim Jong-eun has frequently threatened to attack South Korea and the United States with missiles. U.S. President Donald Trump has counter-threatened with no less strength.

Chinese media help in effort to usurp India's territory

It is with my deep sense of pain and anguish that I write this letter expressing my deep hurt against the role played by the Chinese media to spit fire on India.

Differing opinion can be patriotic

I read your article in the Korean Times with keen interest. l have lived and studied in Korea for about eight years, and followed the political situation in the country closely. Your article was a break from the media coverage of the current turmoil that has engulfed Korea for the past month. l must admit that my knowledge is limited to the English language articles and discussions l have had with my Korean friends. The president has been judged and found guilty in the court of popular opinion. It is very fashionable to insult and call the president names in public, and anyone who holds a co...

Don't blame foreigners

I have read with utmost attention and interest your editorial in The Korea Times on Oct. 21 about “ppalli ppalli” culture in Korea. As a foreigner working in the finance industry in Seoul for two years now, I'm hereby humbly offering my views.
