Time to seek peace through diplomacy and dialogue
It has been apparent that the competition between the U.S.-led alliance and the anti-U.S. coalition in the East Asia region, endangers the Korean Peninsula and may be a key area for the new Cold War.

'Nothing Compares to U'
Sinead O'Connor has died. As you get older, hearing about the deaths of people that you knew - either personally or as a public figure - is increasingly frequent and marked with only passing curiosity except in certain cases where you feel compelled to pause. This is one of those times.

The bumpy road toward unification
President Yoon Suk Yeol said that the Ministry of Unification's purpose should no longer be to provide aid to North Korea. Whatever Yoon's true intention, fundamental reform of the unification ministry seems to be inevitable.

Can you believe what you see? Unraveling the illusion of reality in the age of AI
Earlier this year, a photo of Pope Francis wearing a trendy white puffer coat went viral, only to be uncovered as an AI-generated image.

Can ROK-US alliance and multilateral security framework co-exist?
This year marks the 70th anniversary of the Korean Armistice Agreement and the subsequent signing of the ROK-U.S. Mutual Defense Treaty. For the past seventy years, the ROK-U.S. alliance has been a critical framework for South Korea's security.

AI, big data, and the end of humanity
It happened again this morning. I pressed my bank's smartphone app, and a warning message popped up. “Keep your data safe by updating to the newest app.” Bug fixes, hackers smarter than the programmers, and data breaches are reported all the time. I get similar messages when I go to my bank's website. I access the website a couple of times a month. Each time I log in, I get s...
