Is Donald Trump a racist?
Leading up to the US presidential election, there were news reports about white supremacists supporting a candidate.Yes, in 2008, white supremacist David Duke said Barack Obama as president would be “a visual aid” and “indisputable proof” that whites had lost control of the U.S.
2016-11-29 16:25
Art of dealing with Trump
To the relief of expats, visitors, experts and veteran Korea watchers, Yonhap News reported on Nov. 10 that in a 10-minute phone call with South Korean president Park Geun-hye: “Trump says U.S. will remain 'steadfast, strong’ in defending against NK.”

NK refugees fighting English
Sogang University professor Park Eun-sung’s speech last Saturday about the challenges North Korean refugees face in learning English was so good that I searched for conference organizers so I could sign up to speak at a future conference.

Some say 'I'm a Little Big Hero'
If I hadn't known I was on TV, I would have learned it quickly because of the messages I started receiving: “Hey! Do you know you’re on TV?” I rarely watch TV, even when I have been interviewed. But this time, I was parked in front of the TV along with colleagues (including one of the North Korean refugees who told me “You look better on TV”). We were watching a 50-minute cable TV special about an organization I co-founded here in South Korea.

'Her name is Eun-hee Park'
Friends and family who don't know much about North Korea often ask me why some people conceal their faces in photos I post on my Facebook page.
2016-08-23 16:42
Apathy about North Korea
I recently attended a United Nations conference in Seoul at which a couple of distinguished speakers asked: Why aren't more of the almost 30,000 North Korean refugees directly involved in activism against North Korea? A few others at the conference asked: Why don’t South Koreans care more about their Northern brethren? And others asked: Why are so many expats in Korea interested in helping North Korean refugees?

From Hwang Solo to Team Hwang
On December 11, 1969, a North Korean agent hijacked domestic flight Korean Air NAMC YS-11 from Gangwon to Gimpo just 10 minutes after take-off at 12:25 pm. All 50 people on board (46 passengers and 4 crew members) were abducted by North Korea.

Storming the Bastille for freedom
I was delighted to be invited to be a keynote speaker alongside esteemed Yonsei University economics professor Kim Chung-ho on May 28 at the inaugural Students for Liberty (Korea) conference in Seoul, but I also wasn’t sure I would be an appropriate speaker.
2016-05-30 16:01
What are you doing about North Korea?
“What should be done about North Korea?" "How can we help North Koreans?" Those questions are often asked, but rarely answered to the satisfaction of questioners. In the last five years of speaking at and attending North Korea focused events, I have yet to see audience members, reporters or experts respond, “At last! This is the answer about what to do about North Korea!”

Top Secret
Back in 2007 when I launched a radio talk show, I predicted that I wouldn’t get major media coverage until there was a problem. After I got fired from the show in a dispute with management, I was proven correct. I got a long article published in the Washington Post, several national media invitations, mentioned in a book about conspiracy theories, and later became a regular commentator on a National Public Radio show.
