On creating infrastructure for Korea-Japan reconciliation
These days, the outlook for a serious and positive new start of Korean-Japanese relations is better than ever, once one considers the last two decades.

Wildfires, afforestation and climate change adaptation in South and North Korea
On a late March Sunday around noon on Mount Inwang, just opposite the former presidential palace, the Blue House, trees suddenly burst into flames like matches, smoke develops and in an incredibly short space of time the whole mountain is enveloped in dark smoke clouds.

Peace dividends and war preparation - some unpopular truths
“Si vis pacem, para bellum” (If you want peace, prepare for war), goes a famous saying by a Roman war strategist, Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus, in the 4th century.

Nothing can illustrate this better than the current war in Europe.

'Money Heist' will never become reality
These days, hundred thousands of Koreans follow each week the new suspenseful drama “Money Heist: Join Economic Area,” a remake of an extremely successful Spanish drama, “Le casa de papel,” in which a group of brilliant thugs rob a mint. Pretending to rob a bank, indeed they print their own money.

Plastic waste: common scourge of South and North Korea and source of future cooperation
When in June for one week the so-called Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm (BRS) conventions took place in Geneva, hundreds of delegates from all 188 participating countries in these three leading multilateral environment agreements came together to discuss how to better govern chemicals and waste management, in order to protect human health and the environment.
