The staff at Hankook Ilbo's Los Angeles office first came up with this idea of creating a weekly English-language section and proposed it to The Korea Times editors, who were happy to participate. That's how this section got started," said The Korea Times Vice President Lee Sang-seok, who has been overseeing the transcontinental project.
We saw our weekly U. Mainly, we offer stories on culture, economy and entertainment news, and also technological innovations including advances in information-technology.
We have been getting a lot of positive feedback. The Korea Times began publishing on Nov. For the past 58 years, the daily newspaper has been playing an important role as Korea's window to the world, offering latest domestic news, in-depth reports, feature stories, analyses, commentaries and columns. Man left brain-dead after vaccination donates organs Curfews on cafes, restaurants to be lifted on Nov. Officials of Hankook Ilbo pressed to have him prosecuted for reporting, on a Korean-language radio station in Los Angeles, that it was in financial difficulty and would be acquired by a large conglomerate.
Choi is expected to go on trial later this month. In most countries an aggrieved party might file a civil suit for defamation and seek damages, but Hankook Ilbo filed a criminal complaint with the prosecutors, and so now Mr.
Choi is in jail and has been indicted for the crime of spreading rumors. Under South Korean law, there will be no jury trial. Instead, a judge will hear the case and will decide whether he is guilty and what prison term would be appropriate, up to a maximum of five years.
To critics, mostly abroad, the law underscores the problems that got South Korea into its present economic mess: a legal structure that protects crony capitalism and makes it risky to call attention to financial weaknesses. The imprisonment of Mr. Choi has enraged some people in Los Angeles and led to some calls for the United States to halt its bailout of the South Korean economy until he is released. But in South Korea, no one seems to understand what the fuss is about.
Park, the newspaper executive. He may be tough on rumors, but he is not just a caricature of an autocrat: in the 's he himself was imprisoned for his reporting about the dictatorship of the time. The case comes as many Asian countries are still searching for the best place to put the fulcrum that balances free expression and social order. South Korea is growing more democratic, but it is fearful of North Korea and partly as a result has always put the priority on order and stability.
The law that Mr. Choi fell afoul of never attracted much notice until he, as an American citizen, was arrested for violating it. And even many South Korean liberals and former dissidents accept harsh national security laws that lead to the imprisonment of people who praise North Korea or even read North Korean propaganda.

Sundubu-jjigae or soft tofu stew is a jjigae in Korean cuisine. The dish is made with freshly curdled soft tofu, vegetables, sometimes mushrooms, onion, optional seafood, optional meat, and gochujang or gochu garu. The dish is assembled and cooked directly in the serving vessel, which is traditionally made of thick, robust porcelain, but can also be ground out of solid stone.
A raw egg can be put in the jjigae just before serving, and the dish is delivered while bubbling vigorously. It is typically eaten with a bowl of cooked white rice and several banchan. Their number made up 15 percent of the country's Korean American population.
It was sponsored by the Korean Institute of Southern California.
