Wishful thinking amid both positives and risks
The KOSPI has shown some recovery since July, recouping some of the losses of this year. The index fell 22.2 percent up until June, one-year Korea Treasury Bond (KTB) yields rose to 3 percent on June 30 and have fallen since, suggesting that the policy rate is likely to peak around the 3-percent level. The market also no longer expects the Fed to hike the interest rate aggres...

We are all toxic
When I first landed in Queens, New York City, as a 12-year-old immigrant, the only time I saw the word, “toxic,” was on a warning label affixed to a drain opener plastic container in a supermarket. In a similar vein, the imagery that I associated with “toxic” was the skull and crossbones icon used to denote something as poisonous. In a word, “toxic” was something that was ser...

A more complicated Korea-China relationship
Later this month, South Korea and China will mark the 30th anniversary of formal relations. Normally this would be a time for diplomatic pleasantries, but the anniversary comes at a complex time for the relationship.

French summer, European winter?
It's been a strange and uncertain summer, marked by high temperatures, torrid inflation and a very hot war on Europe's eastern doorstep.

Goodbye, Gen. Olmstead!
During my time as ambassador to the U.S., it was such an honor to meet with remarkable U.S. soldiers who fought valiantly during the Korean War, made huge sacrifices and took much pride in Korea's remarkably successful nation-building. Gen. Olmstead, who passed away on July 20, was one such soldier.

Korea's renewed pivot to Africa
Africa was long known as a continent with rich natural resources and potential but largely underdeveloped and forgotten. It is now striving quickly to transform itself into a continent that will play a bigger role in shaping the future of the international order.

Wake-up call for 'Nuke Five'
Over the last five decades, the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) has served as the bedrock for keeping the world safe from a nuclear doomsday. Now it stands on the brink of a breakdown.

Turning point for American industrial policy or one-hit wonder?
As American politics sinks farther into the hole of partisan vitriol and dysfunctionality, we can be reminded of former George W. Bush administration Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's statement that “we need a common enemy to unite us.” In this case, a common adversary - China - united Republicans and Democrats last month to pass landmark legislation: the CHIPS and Scienc...
