Culture, creative sector and pandemic
Culture, creative sector and pandemic
Creativity suffers under crisis. Cultural activities are important aspects of a society for their contributions to inclusiveness, cultural democracy and nation-building. Performing arts are one such thing. The role of culture in promoting creative wealth, human capital and hence welfare has been discussed at length. However, the severe jolt by the COVID-19 pandemic has been a...

Defending Taiwan may well be test too far
They must lead the unofficial geopolitical loyalty league worldwide. For if there is one country and people in the Asia-Pacific that has logged more miles through mud, jungle and desert to follow the U.S. military almost anywhere, Australia is the one.

Toward an Atlantic Economic Framework
Toward an Atlantic Economic Framework
U.S. President Joe Biden came to Korea for a productive official visit just 10 days after the swearing-in ceremony of President Yoon Suk-yeol. For President Yoon's Korea, the quest for economic security is the main foreign policy priority in the face of international turbulence created by COVID-19 and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, as well as by the unjustified unilateral m...

Using fame for good cause
What I see as a problem in media coverage about first lady is that she is being treated like a celebrity or a social media influencer. I do not think she has such wishes. The way she is reported on in media outlets is something that the presidential office should take seriously.

North Korea emboldened by diplomatic silence
North Korea has been making a lot of noise but few seem to notice. Kim Jong-un's reclusive communist regime has fired off 23 missiles since the beginning of the year to the collective yawns of world opinion.

How to engage with China
How to engage with China
The world order is at risk of a lasting split, with the United States and its allies on one side, and China and its partners on the other. As U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen noted at an Atlantic Council event last month, this outcome is far from desirable, and the U.S. must work with China to prevent it. But, practically in her next breath, Yellen advocated actions that ...

Korea should become outspoken defender of open multilateral trading arrangements
Korea should become outspoken defender of open multilateral trading arrangements
There is an old joke: if you've been in a country for only a day, you're an expert; if you've been there two days, you're a specialist; and if you've been there any longer, you're as confused as everyone else! As someone who hasn't been in Korea since COVID hit, I think I may be less confused than most. As an outsider, I presume to suggest three issues that are, in my view, v...

More policy support needed for single mothers to save family
According to the Ministry of Health and Welfare, there are approximately 200,000 Korean adoptees who have been placed in multiple countries, and approximately 170,000 of them have been residing in the United States since the late 1950's. As Korean adoptees with a nationality other than Korean, there are internal conflicts, pain and trauma that consist of the sense of abandonm...

Pyongyang's COVID gamble
North Korea has played the role of mini-me to China when it comes to COVID. Both countries have pursued a zero-COVID strategy over the past two years and both now are facing the disastrous results of that decision.
