    Young designers honor independence fighters
    Five students at Konkuk University’s Department of Apparel Design have begun selling special hooded T-shirts decorated with the Taegeukgi, the Korean national flag, in order to support marginalized descendants of independence activists during Japanese colonial rule (1910-45). Starting from last week, the students, who launched the street fashion brand ZAMU two years ago, have...

    Berlin's four most photogenic spots
    BERLIN - Berlin may not be the world’s most photogenic city, perhaps because of decades of division and scars from two major 20th century wars. But some parts of the German capital will surely fascinate you from time to time. The Korea Times has put together a list of the four best photo spots.

    (364) Saju: Human destiny and facial recognition technology
    Can face-reading artificial intelligence read human fate better than traditional face-readers and replace the role of fortunetellers? Many recent articles are reporting about the advances in artificial intelligence (AI). AI has been developed so that it can work out all aspects of a person’s attitude and movement and tell his future by analyzing an abundant database. Among se...

    Free entrance, discount events to spice up Chuseok holidays
    With people counting down the days before the Chuseok holiday season in the first week of October, the government has rolled out incentives to encourage people to enjoy themselves cheaply, scrapping admission fees to popular spots, including Seoul’s royal palaces.

    • Sociologist's Trump book predicted Charlottesville
    Writing about the Donald Trump presidency is about as easy as describing a building collapse in mid-demolition, while you’re on the top floor. Each week, a new disaster or national embarrassment changes everything, producing a high volume of new information as well as disinformation, chipping away at the very way society shares knowledge. But Jon Huer, a sociology professor and former Korea Times columnist, presents a great deal of insight into Trump as well as his supporters in his 12th book “Donald Trump: Made in the USA.” Writing between Trump’s upset victory last November and around his ...

    Hansik goes north
    Korean food has never before been as popular as now. Globally, people are hyped about Korean food, or “hansik” in the Korean language.

    Korea's first encounter with Western world
    CHANGWON, South Gyeongsang Province - Who was the first Westerner to step on Korean soil? For a long time, many people believed it was Jan Janse de Weltevree, a Dutchman who was washed ashore in 1653, and then Joao Mendes, a Portuguese trader whom they thought arrived 50 years before him. Who brought the first Bible to Korea? This was another question that long remained unans...

    [My Seoul Story] Chungmuro: birthplace of Korean cinema
    My passion for film photography brought me to Chungmuro, a long street and its surrounding areas north of Namsan Park. As an avid shooter of 35mm film, I can get some of the best product for my addiction in this working-class downtown neighborhood. A short walk from exit 5 of Chungmuro Station and you can find all the film rolls, film cameras, photo studios and development se...
