Ji-woo wondered.Ko: 그녀는 병의 출처와 영향에 대해 더 알고 싶었다.En: She wanted to learn more about the source and impact of the disease.Ko: 이곳 사람들의 고통과 두려움 속에서, 그녀는 새로운 작품의 방향을 찾고 싶었다.En: Amid the suffering and fear of the people here, she wanted to find a new direction for her work.Ko: 그러나 병이 퍼진 지역은 이미 격리되어 들어갈 수 없었다.En: However, the area where the disease had spread was already quarantined, prohibiting entry.Ko: 지우는 고민 끝에 결심했다.En: After much deliberation, Ji-woo made a decision.Ko: 비록 위험했지만, 그녀는 그 지역에 들어가 병든 사람들을 도우며 그들의 이야기를 듣기로 했다.En: Although it was risky, she decided to enter the area, help the sick people, and hear their stories.Ko: 격리 지역에 들어선 지우의 눈앞에는 고통받는 사람들이 있었다.En: In front of her in the quarantine zone were people in pain.Ko: 그 중 한 명, 민서는 지우에게 이미 익숙한 얼굴 같았다.En: Among them, a person named Min-seo seemed like a familiar face to Ji-woo.Ko: 민서의 아픔은 지우에게 두고 온 가족의 기억을 떠올리게 만들었다.En: Min-seo's suffering reminded Ji-woo of the memories of the family she had left behind.Ko: 지우는 민서와의 대화를 통해 그간의 상실과 고통을 극복할 방법을 찾았다.En: Through conversations with Min-seo, she found a way to overcome her past loss and pain.Ko: 묵은 감정이 그녀의 가슴속에서 다시 일어났고, 이로 인해 지우는 새로운 창작의 영감을 얻게 되었다.En: Old emotions resurfaced in her heart, and because of this, Ji-woo gained new creative inspiration.Ko: 지우는 그날밤부터 도화지 위에 힘을 다해 그림을 그리기 시작했다.En: From that night, Ji-woo began to draw on her canvas with all her might.Ko: 병에 대한 사람들의 두려움, 그리고 고통 속에서도 희망을 잃지 않는 그들의 모습을 담아냈다.En: She captured the fear of people about the disease and the way they held onto hope despite the pain.Ko: 지우의 작품은 마침내 완성되었고, 전시회를 열게 되었다.En: Ji-woo's work was finally completed, and she held an exhibition.Ko: 그녀의 그림은 많은 사람들에게 감동을 주었고, 병에 대처하기 위한 자금 모금에 큰 도움을 주었다.En: Her paintings moved many people and greatly contributed to raising funds to combat the disease.Ko: 지우는 깨달았다. 진정한 영감은 고립 속에서 오는 것이 아니라, 다른 사람들과의 교류와 공감 속에서 온다는 것을.En: Ji-woo realized that true inspiration doesn't come from isolation, but from interaction and empathy with others.Ko: 이태원의 밤하늘 아래, 벚꽃비가 내리는 풍경 속에서 지우는 마음의 평화를 찾았다.En: Under the night sky of Itaewon, amid the scenery of cherry blossom rain, Ji-woo found peace of mind.Ko: 그녀의 예술은 이제 많은 사람들에게 위로와 희망을 전하고 있었다.En: Her art was now providing comfort and hope to many people.

In April 1997, 22 year old university student Cho Jung-pil went to a fast food restaurant with his partner. While his girlfriend was ordering, Cho left to use the bathroom, but moments later would be found collapsed and covered in blood on the toilet floor. This would spark chaos as police rushed down to the scene, starting what would be a messy, complicated, near 20 year long case. Tune in to find out more.

In this episode of The Korea Pro Podcast, Jeongmin is joined by Joon Ha, Korea Pro's correspondent, to discuss South Korea's potential shift in Ukraine policy and developments in defense capabilities. They begin by examining South Korea's increasingly clear signals about potentially providing weapons to Ukraine, triggered by an apparent deployment of North Korean troops to Russia. They discuss how this development may have crossed Seoul's previously stated "red line" and the government's new framework for military aid, shifting from "lethal vs. non-lethal" to "offensive vs. defensive" weapons categorization. The conversation then turns to South Korea's plans to deploy domestically produced drones by year's end, complementing the recently announced procurement from Poland. They also discuss the Polish president's scheduled visit to South Korean defense manufacturers and ongoing negotiations for a second round of K2 tank exports. Looking ahead, Jeongmin and Joon Ha preview the second anniversary of the Itaewon disaster and potential political tensions surrounding memorial attendance, as well as South Korea's decision to increase electricity fee for large industrial users while freezing household rates. About the podcast: The Korea Pro Podcast is a weekly 15-minute conversation hosted by Editorial Director Jeongmin Kim (@jeongminnkim) and Editor John Lee (@koreanforeigner), diving deep into the most pressing stories shaping South Korea — and dissecting the most complicated ones for professionals monitoring ROK politics, diplomacy, culture, society and technology.

In the latest episode of the Korea Pro Podcast, Jeongmin, Lina and Joon Ha discuss the much-anticipated first formal meeting between opposition leader Lee Jae-myung and President Yoon Suk-yeol since Yoon's inauguration. The episode highlights how Lee's surprise speech to the press allowed the opposition to dominate the optics. However, the outcome remained ambiguous, with both sides presenting differing narratives of the discussion and leaving several high-profile issues unresolved. The episode also delves into upcoming political events, including Choo Mi-ae, the frontrunner for speaker of the National Assembly, nominations for the next ruling and opposition floor leaders, a plenary session to pass the revised Itaewon probe bill, a contentious bill for a special investigation into the death of a marine last year, and updates on the doctors' strikes. Lastly, the Korea Pro team discusses socio-economic issues, such as the controversy over universal cash vouchers and the financial pressures faced by small and medium-sized business owners. They also explore the recent rise of unmanned shops and the associated social challenges.

In this week's episode, the Korea Pro team delves into the political dynamics behind Lee Jun-seok's pledge to mandate female military conscription for those seeking public civil service careers. This proposal, highly unfeasible and politically motivated, aims primarily at eroding Lee Jun-seok's former party's support base by wooing young male voters. The discussion then turns to President Yoon Suk-yeol's decision to veto a bill passed by the opposition party for a “special investigation” into the 2022 Itaewon crowd crush disaster. Described by the administration as potentially “unconstitutional,” the bill sought to create a committee with extensive powers. The president's critics pointed to the lack of accountability among high-level officials for the disaster. The episode also addresses U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan's comments on U.S. relations with South Korea and Japan, which he described as a “vision for the world,” which the Korea Pro team describes as fragile.

Árið 2022 átti sér stað stórslys í Itaewon hverfinu í höfuðborg Suður Kóreu. Hvernig getur svonalagað gerst í einu þróaðasta landi heims og hvar liggur ábyrgðin? Nú þegar ár er liðið frá hörmungunum er tækifæri til að líta til baka og skoða troðninginn á hrekkjavökunni í Itaewon. Þátturinn er í boði Bíó Paradís en þér er einnig velkomið að koma í hlýtt faðmlag Heimsendafjölskyldunnar á Patreon. 

The latest news from home and abroad, with a close eye on Northeast Asia and the Korean Peninsula in particular

Le 29 octobre 2022, une soirée d'Halloween a tourné au cauchemar en Corée du Sud et 159 personnes sont mortes. Les images de personnes compressées les unes contre les autres dans le quartier d'Itaewon ont choqué dans le monde entier. Mais un an plus tard, les familles demandent toujours une enquête indépendante et dénoncent l'inaction des autorités. De notre correspondant à Séoul,« Elle me manque énormément ». Douze mois plus tard, Yoo Hyeong-woo, n'est pas prêt à tourner la page. « L'ambiance de l'automne nous fait penser à cette tragédie, on sent que la population est aussi traumatisée. De plus en plus de gens viennent se recueillir et pleurent devant les portraits. »Face au mémorial où trônent les jeunes visages des morts d'Itaewon, le vice-président de l'association des familles endeuillées est ému en voyant des passants déposer un message de soutien. « Pour nous, la solidarité de la population est d'autant plus primordiale que le gouvernement essaie de faire oublier ce drame ». Ce père de famille veut pouvoir dire à ses enfants ce qui a entraîné la mort de leur sœur Yoo Yeon-ju.À lire aussiCorée du Sud: drame d'Itaewon, les proches des victimes sortent du silenceUne nuit mauditeCe premier Halloween post-pandémie devait être une grande fête. Plus de 100 000 personnes s'étaient réunies à Itaewon, le quartier iconique des festivités de fin octobre. Bien trop pour les 137 policiers présents. Un chiffre d'autant plus infime comparé aux 6 500 agents déployés à quelques kilomètres pour encadrer une manifestation. « Les années précédentes, des policiers géraient la circulation, mais pas là », souffle Lee Jung-min, président de l'association qui s'est rendu dans le quartier le soir où sa fille, Lee Joo-young est morte. Alors que le trafic routier n'est pas bloqué dans l'avenue principale, la foule s'amasse dans les étroites allées adjacentes.Dès 18h34, les secours reçoivent de premiers appels alertant explicitement sur le risque d'accident grave. Dix autres suivront avant 22h20, lorsque la fête s'est transformée en tragédie. Dans la petite allée inclinée, certains commencent à perdre l'équilibre. Les gens tombent les uns sur les autres, des centaines de personnes compressées sont incapables de respirer. « Un an s'est écoulé et rien n'a été révélé ». Lee Jung-min veut qu'on lui explique l'impréparation des autorités, l'absence de réaction malgré les multiples messages d'alertes et la réponse désordonnée des secours. « Ce soir-là, j'ai vu des victimes abandonnées, sans aide, alors qu'elles étaient en train de mourir ». À lire aussiCorée du Sud: près de 150 morts à Séoul en marge de la fête d'HalloweenOù en est l'enquête ?En dépit de ces éléments, aucun haut responsable n'a été inquiété. Vingt-trois personnes ont été inculpées, majoritairement des policiers. Mais pour Yoo Hyeong-woo et l'association des familles, la chaîne de responsabilité est claire : « Le maire de l'arrondissement, les officiers de police, le commissaire de la police de Séoul, de la police nationale, le maire de Séoul, et le ministre de l'Intérieur, tous doivent prendre leurs responsabilités et se retirer pour qu'une enquête sérieuse et indépendante soit menée ». Une motion de censure a été votée au Parlement à l'encontre du ministre de l'Intérieur Lee Sang-min, mais invalidé par le Conseil constitutionnel.Principal point de défense de l'exécutif, l'absence d'organisateur désigné du festival d'Halloween, les empêchant de prévoir une telle foule. Les familles assurent que la présence policière était plus conséquente lors des précédentes éditions. L'administration du président Yoon Suk-yeol refuse de parler de « désastre » ou de « victimes », mais préfère les termes d'« accident » et de « décédés » quand elle évoque la tragédie.À lire aussiCorée du Sud: émotion, deuil national et premières questions après le drame d'Halloween à SéoulAccusés d'être des drogués, des Nord-CoréensPour Lee Ju-hyun, survivante du désastre, « le gouvernement cherche à fuir ses responsabilités en accusant les individus qui se sont rendus à Itaewon ». Le soir du drame, plus d'un tiers des effectifs de police étaient dédiés à la lutte contre les produits stupéfiants. « Dès le début, ils ont accusé les enfants d'être des drogués », assure Lee Jung-min. Pour les familles, l'enquête s'est bornée à tenter de prouver que les victimes étaient des consommateurs ou des trafiquants de stupéfiants. « Ils nous ont de nouveau traumatisés en demandant nos relevés de téléphones où de cartes de crédits », assure Lee Ju-hyun. « Six mois plus tard, je devais prouver que j'étais une victime alors que j'avais été transporté à l'hôpital depuis le lieu du drame ».Un discours culpabilisateur qui a séduit une partie de l'opinion publique. Les familles ont été harcelées et insultées par des organisations d'extrême droite. « Le gouvernement a manipulé la vérité en insinuant qu'ils étaient morts parce qu'ils allaient dans les bars », assure Yoo Hyeong-woo. « Cela donne l'image qu'ils n'avaient pas à être là. Il y a même des youtubeurs qui répandent des fake news, en disant "c'étaient des Nord-Coréens… » Kim Gi-hyeon, le chef du parti au pouvoir, a sous-entendu le mois dernier que la Corée du Nord était derrière les manifestations en soutien aux familles.Déterminés malgré le désespoirÀ ces polémiques s'ajoute l'isolement pour les familles étrangères, selon Nari Kim. « Au début, ils refusaient de me donner le certificat de décès de mon frère, car j'étais étrangère ! » Autrichienne, mais coréanophone, elle tente de faire le lien avec certaines des familles des 26 victimes étrangères. « C'est quasiment impossible d'avoir des informations pour ceux qui ne parlent pas coréen. » Elle demande également que les coupables soient jugés et dénonce l'attitude des autorités sud-coréennes à leur égard. « Lorsque nous sommes venus après le drame. Ils n'arrêtaient pas de nous demander quand on partait du pays ».Mais malgré le désespoir, les familles et les survivants restent déterminés. Vestes violettes sur les épaules, ils se relaient pour garder le mémorial qui héberge les portraits des victimes et les messages de soutien des passants. Adossée à la mairie, celle-ci le considère illégal et envoie des amendes toujours plus importantes à l'association. Mais elle refuse de quitter les lieux tant que ne débute pas une enquête indépendante.

We hope you enjoy this season's sample of LAist Studios' K-Pop Dreaming! In this episode, we head to an American military neighborhood in Seoul in the late 1980s. Tucked in an alleyway was a little grimy club that blasted American hip-hop, the place was for African American GIs to cut loose, but it pulled in an unexpected crowd – young Koreans who would become the pioneers of modern K-pop. Itaewon was also the setting for the beginning of another story – it was the place where Vivian's parents met and fell in love. Features Kang Won Rae, one of K-pop's legends that came out of the Moon Night scene.(Originally published March 9, 2023)   Support K-pop Dreaming and other LAist Studios podcasts by donating now at LAist.com/join This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Today we're interviewing Helen Gi, Founder of HAE Creative, a mission-driven consultant agency that helps a ton of plant-based brands understand South Korea. HAE stands for Human Health Animal Liberation and Environmental Sustainability We do this in a district in Korea called Itaewon! Itaewon is crazy, it's this unique, sloping melting pot of so many different cultures and vanity. My friend and I found a bar crawl there and we were surprised how many foreigners showed up. Helen is such a helpful and giving person who has great insights on the Korean vegan community and has worked in a variety of industries throughout her life. She is eloquent and so community driven and has a lot of heart in what she does and it shows in the interview. Since Helen collaborates with other food tech players globally, You'll also get a better understanding on how the Korean market works. It's a great testbed for innovation. You'll also get a good feel on the values and views of entrepreneurship in Korea. I find this topic fascinating as you realize that culture is a big part of being an entrepreneur. In America, we are really gung ho about entrepreneurship. We also have a lot of data, research, talent and drive in America compared to most countries. What I've found most inspiring about South Korea's food tech community is that it's carried by some fantastic individuals who really care about the future they create. Perhaps one can say that all great things start with someone who will stop at nothing to make a difference in the world.

Rotten Mango Visual: https://www.youtube.com/@rottenmangopod On October 30th, a man walked out of his tiny little shop in Itaewon. He placed a pink blanket in the grim alleyway. He got on his knees in front of a tray of food he had prepared. Police immediately swarmed him, demanding he leave right away. Nobody was supposed to be in the alley, not after what had happened there. The man yelled at the police - “don't you dare touch the food. Don't touch it. Please you have to let me do this. The kids need to eat one last meal.” 159 young souls had tragically died in that little alleyway. The man had desperately tried to save them.

Hello from the picket lines! This week, Jay and Tammy report on labor actions on the streets of Berkeley and Seoul. [4:30] First, Jay tells us what he's heard from striking student workers at the University of California. More than forty-five thousand UAW union members are drawing attention to their financial precarity and austerity in academia. We parse the possible fault lines among this remarkably large group of workers: the relative resources and prestige of different UC campuses, disciplinary biases, and disparate access to jobs after graduation. Why should we believe universities' pleas of poverty, when their money so clearly goes to bloated administrative positions, campus police, and extravagant sports facilities? [38:58] We also discuss strikes at Starbucks, The New School, and HarperCollins, and the revived possibility of a rail strike next month. Something's clearly in the air—will US labor law and the NLRB limit or bolster worker power? [45:27] Next, Tammy fills us in on the annual labor rally in Seoul, which, this year, targeted President Yoon Suk Yeol's malfeasance and the mass deaths in Itaewon. As the new administration promises to concentrate wealth even further and avoids interacting with the public, how should the Korean working class respond? What kind of government is the Yoon administration, and what is the government for, anyway? [53:02] Lastly, we remember Staughton Lynd, a key leftist intellectual and organizer who passed away last week. Lynd and his wife, Alice, were key figures in movements for civil rights and labor and against incarceration and war. RIP. Next week, we'll be taking a break from recording. Our next episode will be a live recording with Hua Hsu, so be sure to pick up his book—and please join us in person next week, if you're in NYC! This is a public episode.

Albania's Prime Minister this week has accused the UK of scapegoating his country's citizens to excuse its ‘failed policies' on migration. This comes amid a deepening crisis over the UK's handling of asylum seekers. Sara Monetta spoke to people in the suburbs of Tirana about why many of Albania's young people are choosing to leave. Last weekend, young people gathered in the district of Itaewon, in the South Korean capital Seoul, to celebrate Halloween in far greater numbers than usual. The subsequent crush killed more than 150 people. Laila Shahrokhshahi experienced first-hand the force of the crowds before tragedy struck. Voters in Israel chose to return Benjamin Netanyahu to power in this week's election. The big story of his dramatic comeback has been about the rise of Israel's far-right, which he helped cultivate as a parliamentary alliance to boost the numbers for his right-wing bloc in the Knesset. Tom Bateman looks at the emergence of a new kingmaker, Itamar Ben-Gvir. Ahead of the midterm elections, the abortion debate still polarises the US, following the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe vs Wade. During those proceedings, there was also talk of Safe Haven laws, which exist in every state, and allow mothers to leave their new-borns at a designated safe site if they feel they are unable to take care of them. In Arizona, Linda Pressly met a family with direct experience of this. Ukraine's President has accused the Kremlin of 'energy terrorism', saying millions of people have been left without power because of Russian attacks on the country's power grid. Hugo Bachega has been living in the city for the past few months, and describes how Kyiv's citizens have once again adapted to rapidly changing circumstances.

Hello from Jay's trick-or-treating route! This week, Jay listened to hours of affirmative-action arguments from the Supreme Court so that you (and we) didn't have to. He recounts Ketanji Brown Jackson's sharp line of questioning and lays out the progressives' Catch-22. Does a third path reveal itself if we deny Harvard and its peers their institutional, “meritocratic” power? Is it true that Asian Americans are actually given a leg up in some academic environments? Next, we hear from Tammy, in Korea, following the horrific crowd crush that killed more than 150 people in Seoul's Itaewon neighborhood over Halloween weekend. We discuss the role of government negligence and the rage and grief reminiscent of the Sewol ferry disaster. Tammy explains what makes Itaewon such a special neighborhood, especially for young people and minorities in Seoul. What will it represent going forward? Finally, we honor the great people's historian Mike Davis, who died on October 25. We revisit his classic, “Fortress L.A.,” which appears as Chapter 4 in City of Quartz (currently available as a free Ebook from Verso or, if you prefer to listen, as an audiobook through your local library on Libby.) We also discuss his more recent pieces on foreign policy and organizing, and the huge gap that he and the late Barbara Ehrenreich leave behind. We'll continue to learn from Mike and follow his advice to take to the streets. If you missed our early episode with Mike, you can listen here or read the transcript.Join us on December 1, in NYC, for our TTSG + Hua Hsu live recording at NYU!

Hey everyone. I'm changing up some things on the podcast this week, so I just wanted to pop on and let you know that I didn't feel comfortable releasing this week's originally scheduled episode because the focus was on how to fully embrace and live more presently with the somatic experience of joy.  Much of what I was planning to discuss in that episode revolves around how the city of Seoul and the people I've met here elicit this newfound joy that I have been experiencing lately, but given the tragedy that took place in Itaewon last weekend, and the fact that the friends and families of those whose lives were lost as well as the entire country are in a national period of mourning, which for those families will last a lifetime, and considering many of my friends here from the SeoulShare, Soul Walkers, and CIK meetup groups, and me for that matter, were in Itaewon that night and some of us were only a block away from where this tragedy took place without even realizing that anything was wrong, I don't think this is the right time to share that episode.  I'm sure I'll share it at some point down the road, but now is not that time.  Now is a time for healing; my friend and organizer of SeoulShare and past guest Iggy Lee have been organizing events for people in the groups to come together who may be feeling isolated or alone in these trying times, and he shared a saying that goes, “Joy is doubled when shared; sorrow is halved when shared.”  Originally this episode was supposed to be about how we can experience more joy in our lives by sharing more meaningful moments with our friends, but right now, we're going to take some time to heal in the company of our friends.I just want to take a minute to express my deepest sympathies to the families and friends who lost loved ones last weekend in Itaewon.  There's nothing more I can say that will lessen your pain, but I hope you are surrounded by people you love and who will support you through this unimaginably difficult time.  So, that's it for this week.  Thank you for tuning in.  Please take the next week to tell the people who add value to your life how much you love and appreciate them.  —All of our episodes are available at www.mindfulmidlifecrisis.comIf this episode resonates with you, please share it with your family and friends.Sign up for our newsletter!  We send out new guided meditations each Sunday! - https://www.mindfulmidlifecrisis.com/contact-us/Get a free week of Newsly!

Distraught relatives in the South Korean capital Seoul have been visiting hospitals and a missing persons centre in search of people who may have been injured or killed in a crush on Saturday. At least 153 people died in the disaster in an alleyway in the Itaewon district. We speak to someone who was there. Also in the programme: we hear from one of the first medics on the scene of Saturday's car bomb attacks in the Somali capital, Mogadishu, which killed more than 100 people; and why British cathedrals are being bathed in sound and light. (Photo: The alleyway where the crush took place. Credit: BBC)
