We present Mme President!
Rep. Park Geun-hye couldn’t sleep. When Park, who turned 61 this year, looked up at the clock on the wall, it was one minute past midnight. She smiled at herself, thinking that she had been the 18th president of the Republic of Korea for an hour or so.

Coming out on Psy
I have a confession to make about Psy, the Korean rapper whose “Gangam Style” is taking the world by storm, the most viewed video clip on YouTube this year, capturing No. 2 on the U.S. Billboard Chart (when the paper went to press), topping the British music chart and having Britney Spears do a horse-riding dance and slapping her buttocks with gusto.
