BTS and Elvis
BTS will soon meet the army - not its legion of fans known as ARMY (Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth) but the actual military service. Can the world's biggest boyband survive that experience and retain its popularity when it returns to the stage, expected in 2025 at the earliest. Will BTS even exist then?

Deadly crowd crush in Itaewon
As I write this, the body count keeps going up. It's now 154 people confirmed killed and 133 injured in Itaewon where tens of thousands of young revelers showed up to party on the last Saturday before Halloween. Exact details of what happened are still weeks away, but the rough story is no mystery. Too many people showed up to party in too small a space. There was no crowd co...

Normal questions, abnormal country
Over the last decade I have organized numerous conferences and forums featuring North Korean refugees. One of the best insights was from a North Korean refugee who said during Q&A that one main reason North Korea continues to survive is that people look at it as a normal country.

Nuclear power: devil's energy or inexhaustible clean energy?
Living as a foreign national in South Korea, there are many advantages and rewards. For me as a German, one of the best things is the unfettered technological optimism of the country, which starkly contrasts with the irrational fears that technologies trigger in Germans.

Importance of soft skills for current and future jobs
Soft skills, also known as common skills or core skills, are transferable skills that may be used in a variety of professions. Soft skills are often considered as a hypernym for skills falling under three key functional elements such as people skills, social skills, and personal career attributes. They differ from hard (technical) skills, which are directly relevant to the jo...

Kissinger's pragmatism on Ukraine war
Being a high priest of realpolitik, Henry Kissinger, the 99-year-old former U.S. secretary of state, is undoubtedly among the most pragmatic statesmen in recent times. He has the grits to accept his miscalculations without any whimper and is able to adopt a new stance as per the changing realities on the ground.

Beijing in Brussels' bad books at EU summit
Discussions over a big new potential gas price measure against Russia are at the top of the domestic political agenda in Brussels. However, the European Council summit of 27 presidents and prime ministers last week may well be remembered also for a potentially significant hardening in the EU's foreign policy position toward China.

Gonggam: empathy for needy people
In the middle of Seoul's concrete jungle, the old palace of Changdeok-gung remains beautifully preserved. Changdeok Palace is famous for Biwon, or the Secret Garden. Hidden away at the back of the palace grounds, the Secret Garden is a tranquil green oasis, offering a refuge from the noise, pollution and the constant stream of traffic and people ever present in Seoul. Just ne...

Game on
In America, the midterm elections are nearly upon us. Republicans (also known as the GOP) stand to take the House at least. Historically, the party of the president (President Biden's Democratic Party) loses seats in midterms.

Unsung climate villain South Korea
Already three decades have passed since the world decided to tackle global climate change. However, the total amount of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions emitted annually has not decreased, but rather steadily increased since the birth of the United Nations Framework for Climate Change Convention (UNFCCC) at the Rio Summit in 1992.
