Free Comic Book Day returns to Korea

Magpie celebrates 10 years of brewing
It's been a good 10 years for beer drinkers in Korea. Before that, Magpie Brewing Co. didn't exist. The craft brewery has grown with Korea's craft brewing scene. It is also the likely origin of the term “pi-maek,” a combination of the first syllables of pizza and the Korean word for beer, according to its owners.

What sense of belonging means to those forcibly displaced
What sense of belonging means to those forcibly displaced
For Jacob Jorgensen, a Korean adoptee brought up in Sweden, finding a sense of belonging has been a lifelong task he struggled for a long time with, while feeling he belongs neither in Sweden nor Korea.

A young man walks on stage for the talent show at an international school in Korea. He is expected to show off his beatboxing skills, as he has done in previous talent shows. The school is small - there are only 40 in the boys' class - and there is a sense of repetition to the talent show. Frankly, most of the school has already seen the boy's signature moves. He has other sk...
