Seoul needs to prepare for a second Trump administration
On Aug. 24, the mugshot of former U.S. President Donald Trump released by the Fulton County Sheriff's Office framed him as the accused who will quite probably be declared guilty in the upcoming years, considering the multiple criminal charges he faces. However, his approval ratings have remained overwhelming against his contenders within the Republican Party, demonstrating the unwavering support of Republicans toward him. Some polls show he will win in the 2024 presidential election against U.S. President Joe Biden.

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.

Washington Declaration: no nuclear redeployment in South Korea
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was warmly welcomed by U.S. President Joe Biden in Washington last week as he made the first state visit to the United States since Lee Myung-bak's in 2011. As he voluntarily sewed the historical disputes with Japan up in March, all eyes were on his visit to Washington in the expectation of getting remuneration from the U.S. president such as concrete measures to tackle the North Korean nuclear and missile threats.

President Yoon ignored victims' will to mend ties with Japan
On March 6, South Korean Foreign Minister Park Jin announced a plan that could be a momentum to resolve one of the country's major obstacles between South Korea and Japan - compensating South Korean victims of wartime forced labor. After months of coordination with the forced laborers and Tokyo since South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol took office in May 2022, Seoul finally unveiled its plan to circumvent the Supreme Court's 2018 ruling that has been a key cause of the cacophony over bilateral relations with Japan.
2023-03-20 16:45
Seoul's nuclear gambit is not in favor of alliance politics
South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol has begun the New Year by provocatively underscoring his hawkish approach to North Korea, evident since his presidential campaign days. In early January, however, he may have overstepped his brief by suggesting that if the threats from North Korea grow, South Korea could consider developing nuclear weapons or asking the United States to redeploy nuclear weapons.
2023-02-07 17:00
Making a big deal is unrealistic to denuclearize North Korea
North Korea used to pursue a big deal with the United States by utilizing its nuclear arsenal in exchange for lifting all economic sanctions. However, this strategy seems to have adjusted in the Kim Jong-un era.
2022-12-20 17:02
Allies should find new policy on North Korea
Since South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol took office in May, North Korea has continuously tested its missiles, including the Hwasong-17 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) and other advanced short-range ballistic missiles (SRBMs).
