Re: US nuclear umbrella leaks
Your article was "spot-on!" From your explanation of MAD, to lessening of American interests in protecting ROK, to you final "aside" that north korea may actually be spending itself into it's own oblivion, your observations reflected what we call, in political science, a "Realist" theory of international relations. I am absolutely sure that this theory best explains the relat...

Thank you, Korail
We would like to express our heartfelt appreciation and gratitude to the Korail staff at a train station near Nami Island for your efficiency and courteous assistance for helping me and my three children get back our backpack that my son had forgotten and left on the KTX train on Jan. 17.

Re: Defending Kim Jong-un
As the recent opinion article titled, “Defending Kim Jong-un,” written by Donald Kirk in The Korea Times may have caused some misunderstanding among readers of an article contributed by former U.S. Amb. Donald Gregg and published by the East Asia Foundation Policy Debate, this discussion platform would like to clarify the following:

Re: 'American mistake' editorial
One point that was a bit out of sync with the otherwise high tone of the piece was the specific mention of one current U.S. presidential candidate as a bogeyman for future troubles (and very early in that selection process as well!). The current U.S. President and his foreign policy team would seem a better target for today's issues. Following that, the most likely next U.S. ...

Regarding Gulf states' concern for refugees
We, the heads of missions of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf in Korea, would like to refer to the article 'Silent Gulf States' and the cartoon published in The Korea Times on Sept. 11, 2015.

Sex slaves, not comfort women
The name of a specific historical event should deliver a clear description of the incident; particularly in case of atrocities, readers or listeners must be able to indisputably identify victims and perpetrators. From the Greek holos and kaustos meaning "whole" and "burnt", the name "Holocaust" well demonstrates the gravity of the crime against humanity from the victims' pers...

Amnesty International misguided
Denouncing the South Korean government's imprisonment of "conscientious objectors" to military service, Amnesty International has recently called for an immediate review of "alternative service" instead of uniformed conscription.

On 'ISIS'
I would like to take issue with Henry Seggerman’s article, “A historical context for ISIS” (Korea Times, April 9, 2015). While there are some interesting points in his opinion piece that deserve debate, he has got his basic facts wrong on Syrian history. He alleges that the French colonizers of Syria “exercised control by installing the 15 percent minority Alawis as the rulin...

Korea's driving culture
Korea has shown remarkable growth in auto production and sales over the last three decades. Korea ranks 10th in auto production since 2005, and Hyundai Motor and Kia Motors’ combined sales stand in the global top five since 2010. Their combined sales exceeded 8 million vehicles in 2014. Korea’s auto registrations passed the 20 million mark in October 2014. It is the world’s 1...

Native English teachers and Korean students
Shocking as it is that a female English teacher from South Africa openly poisoned students in a Korean school, it may be one indicator of some long-standing racist sentiment held by some. It is not something that Korean people can change, but it is a reality about which we need to be aware.
