The war in Iran has sent shockwaves through global energy markets - and no region feels it more acutely than the Indo-Pacific. In this episode, co-hosts Ray Powell and Nydia Ngiow sit down with Paul Everingham, CEO of the Asia Natural Gas & Energy Association (ANGEA), who joins after spending two days at the Indo-Pacific Energy Security Ministerial in Tokyo.​With the Persian Gulf's Strait of Hormuz effectively closed, roughly 20% of the world's oil supply and a significant share of global liquid natural gas (LNG) exports are blocked. Paul explains that 70% of Asia's oil originates in the Middle East, meaning every country in the region is exposed. On the natural gas side, South Asian nations - India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh - face the sharpest pain, as they depend heavily on Qatari LNG, while North Asian buyers like Japan and Korea are somewhat shielded by receiving Australian and US supply.The conversation covers Qatar's shutdown of its LNG processing facilities and why a full restart could take six months if hydrocarbons are stripped from the plants. Paul unpacks the potential role of Russian oil and gas if sanctions are eased, the limits of pipeline alternatives from Saudi Arabia, and why coal use - already at record highs - is likely to climb further in 2026 as countries seek cheaper and more abundant alternatives.​On nuclear energy, Paul is clear: it should be part of every country's portfolio, but with a 10–20 year development timeline, it is a medium-term solution, not an immediate fix. His core advice to Indo-Pacific policymakers: diversify energy sources and lock in long-term contracts to hedge against price shocks.​The episode closes with a sobering warning: if the disruption drags on, the world faces potential rationing, surging inflation and a severe global recession.

Join Here:⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠⁠The latest Segment of Notorious Mass Effect has Analytic Dreamz exploring BTS's highly anticipated fifth studio album Arirang, set for release on March 20, 2026—their first full group project in nearly four years following the completion of mandatory military service by all seven members: RM, Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook.Analytic Dreamz breaks down the animated trailer that symbolically links the album to a pivotal 1896 historical event: seven Korean students at Howard University who recorded the earliest known Korean audio in the U.S., including the first documented version of the traditional folk song "Arirang" on wax cylinders, now preserved at the Library of Congress. This story, reported in The Washington Post on May 8, 1896, involved students like Im Byung Goo and Ahn Jung Sik, supported by diplomat Suh Kwang Bum amid Korea's late-19th-century turmoil after the Sino-Japanese War and Queen Min's assassination.The album's 14 tracks draw from influences like trip-hop and old-school hip-hop, produced by Pdogg, Kevin Parker (Tame Impala), Flume, JPEGMAFIA, Mike WiLL Made-It, Ryan Tedder, and Diplo (executive producer on tracks including “Body to Body,” “FYA,” “Like Animals,” “One More Night,” and “Into the Sun”). The concept emphasizes maturity, cultural resilience, connection, distance, and reunion—echoing "Arirang" as Korea's unofficial anthem with over 60 regional variations.Visuals feature the members in formal suits inspired by early 20th-century portraits, mirroring the 1896 students. The promotional campaign, "What Is Your Love Song?", includes interactive installations and billboards in Seoul, New York, London, and Los Angeles.Post-release highlights include the Netflix-livestreamed comeback concert BTS The Comeback Live | ARIRANG on March 21, 2026, at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul, plus the 2026 BTS World Tour: ARIRANG launching April 9 in Goyang, South Korea—spanning 82 shows across 34 cities on five continents, with North American stops in Tampa, Las Vegas, Baltimore, Toronto, Chicago, and Los Angeles.Analytic Dreamz analyzes how this comeback bridges BTS's global K-pop dominance with deep Korean heritage, marking a reflective evolution for the group.Tune in for a detailed cultural and musical breakdown of BTS's Arirang era.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/exclusive-contentPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The LAMB community chose the least Western western for this month's selection as MOTM. Not a spaghetti western but a kimchi western, from Korea, set in Manchuria, in the 1930s. "The Good The Bad The Weird" is a takeoff on the Sergio Leone film in many ways, but it is also vastly different. Howard Casner championed the film and hosts the discussion and he and Richard are joined by Matthew Simpson, for one wild ride across the far east, in western garb to talk about it. If you like Sergio Leone, Indiana Jones, Sam Rami and a lot of madcap action, then this film and the discussion are for you.

What do Taiwan, China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam have in common? Chopsticks. In the second Formosa Files Snack, Eryk and John explore the cultural story behind one of East Asia's most iconic everyday objects. Why did chopsticks replace spoons in China? What role did noodles, rice, and Confucian philosophy play in their adoption? And how did superstitious Ming-dynasty boatmen turn the ancient word for chopsticks into “kuàizi” (literally “quick little boys”)? The origins of the English word “chopsticks” are pretty interesting too. Enjoy this quick, fun cultural and historical detour through the Greater Asian Chopsticks Sphere.

In this episode of the Sajin Photography Podcast, I talk about the photography class I've been teaching at the Ulsan Support Center for Foreign Residents. We're two weeks into the new term, and it's already reminded me why I keep coming back to teaching photography.Photography isn't just about cameras or settings — it's about learning to see the world differently.In this episode, I share what happens in those first few weeks of class, the challenges students face when they start, and the moment when things begin to click. We talk about confidence, creativity, community, and why photography can be such a powerful tool for exploring the places we live.Teaching this class has also reminded me of something important: sometimes the best way to reconnect with photography is to watch someone else discover it for the first time.If you've ever taken a photography class, taught one, or are just trying to find your motivation again, I think you'll enjoy this conversation.Support the showStay connected with the Sajin Photography Podcast for more captivating discussions, interviews, and updates on the vibrant photography community in Korea.

Biotechs in South Korea and other regions of Asia outside of China need to lean into innovation to distinguish themselves from their Chinese counterparts. On a special edition of the BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury's analysts are joined by industry guests Ya-Ting Lei and Luther (Ruizhe) Zhao to discuss why the best path for biotechs in Korea and Japan is to lean into target, biology and modality risk, as well as other takeaways from the fifth BioCentury-BayHelix Biopharma Summit, which ran March 9-12 in Seoul and Daejeon, South Korea.Lei is director of BD Asia at Merck KGaA, and Zhao is VP, China clinical analytics at Caidya.View full story: https://www.biocentury.com/article/658776#AsiaBiotech #SouthKoreaBiotech #BiopharmaSummit #BiotechInnovation #DrugDevelopmentStrategy00:00 - Introduction02:32 - Key Takeaways05:46 - Faster Trials, Better Data08:19 - Global Diligence, Local Success15:13 - Cross Border Synergies17:34 - Korean BiotechTo submit a question to BioCentury's editors, email the BioCentury This Week team at podcasts@biocentury.com.Reach us by sending a text

Netflix's new Indian original movie, Made in Korea, is a lazy excuse of a film made by an inept group of people with no idea what they're doing.The very existence of such slop is a slap in the face of talented filmmakers who struggle for decades trying to do honest work. This is an insult not only to them, but also to audiences who pay hard-earned money to Netflix every month. Here is proof that the unemployment crisis isn't restricted to men.We discuss the film's clueless protagonist, her pointless motivations, and the aimless narrative that she is confined to. We also raise questions about the plausibility of such a premise, and the movie's cartoonish attempts to “honour” Korean culture.—Hosted by Akhil Arora and Rohan Naahar, The Long Take is fully bootstrapped.

The Dominican Republic needed just seven innings to mercy-rule Korea 10-0 in Miami. Team USA now faces the Dominican Republic in the semifinals. Saturday brings Japan vs. Venezuela and Italy vs. Puerto Rico to complete the bracket. Every game from here is win or go home, and after Friday night it's clear not every team got here the same way. The quarterfinals began Friday with two games that told you everything you need to know about where this tournament stands — and who is actually running it.

Pool play for the 2026 edition of the World Baseball Classic has wrapped up and we're now down to the final eight teams.

Then they discuss the highly entertaining Dominican Republic squad taking on Korea, where Hyun Jin Ryu will try to calm the explosive DR bats. Later, Jake and Chelsea preview Japan taking on Venezuela and why Ranger Suárez could be the key to the next major upset of the tournament.

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Sid Kim. Sid didn't become an entrepreneur by following a master plan. He taught himself how to write a business plan from a book, raised venture capital during the dot com boom, and found himself running a company before fully understanding what success or responsibility would actually demand. As the son of immigrants who rebuilt their lives from scratch, Sid saw entrepreneurship as a way to create stability and agency. In this conversation, he reflects on the lessons that came from early wins, sudden losses and building businesses across borders, and how those experiences reshaped his relationship with money, risk and purpose. Sid is a global entrepreneur and business expansion strategist with nearly 30 years of leadership experience across Asia and the United States. His career has centered on building, scaling and diversifying ventures that bridge cultures, markets and industries. As Founder of Vatos Urban Tacos, Urban Mix, Sid Burger & Craft Beer and KoMari, Sid has launched and managed over 20 restaurants and businesses across Singapore, Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and the U.S. As Chairman of Vatos Capital Partners, he continues to oversee concept creation, fundraising, investor relations and brand growth. At SAGE Partners Group, where he serves as CEO, Sid leads cross-border consulting initiatives helping Asian brands expand into the U.S. and guiding North American brands into Asia. From strategy and compliance to design-build and operations, he helps companies navigate the complexities of global expansion while focusing on execution and growth. Beyond F&B, Sid founded GolfX, Singapore's leading indoor golf facility, and serves on the Singapore Golf Association's Golf Development Task Force, promoting the sport's growth and accessibility in the region. Sid recently founded a golf import, export and distribution company for U.S. brands wanting to expand to Asia. A frequent speaker and mentor, Sid shares insights on international expansion, entrepreneurship and cross-cultural leadership with founders, executives, and students worldwide. A Fulbright Scholar and former UC Berkeley Graduate Scholarship Advisory Board member, he combines academic rigor with entrepreneurial instinct—specializing in business development, financial strategy and scalable global ventures. Risk, Reinvention and Redefining Legacy Sid's journey shows that money is more than a measure of success. From his immigrant upbringing to building businesses across continents, his story reflects a thoughtful evolution in how he approaches risk, ambition and stability. Wealth, when guided by intention, creates freedom to pivot, tell meaningful stories and invest in the next generation. Through open conversations with his son about investing and career choices, he illustrates that financial legacy is shaped as much by dialogue and example as by assets. Lessons about money come from experience and shared perspective. If you want to align your resources with the life and legacy you want to create, an Aspiriant advisor can help you design a strategy grounded in purpose and discipline.

International equities have recently generated meaningful outperformance relative to U.S. equities, suggesting a material shift after an extended period of U.S. dominance. Host John Bryson is joined by Dean Bumbaca, CFA, portfolio manager at Axiom Investors, to discuss why international markets could continue to gain momentum and how global exposure can help investors capture these dynamic opportunities. Dean shares insights into the most attractive investment opportunities as the global economy restructures. The conversation also touches on the AI trade, equity valuations, and the consequences of a weaker U.S. dollar for investors with U.S.-focused portfolios. 1 How would you describe Axiom's investment approach? Dean: At Axiom, we view the predominant, most durable factor that drives alpha in equity markets to be positive surprise. Our entire process is designed to spot inflections in businesses that will ultimately result in positive earnings surprises, coupled with an improving competitive advantage and deepening moats. We embrace buy and monitor, where new information proves or disproves our hypothesis. 2 Why should investors consider international equities in 2026? Dean: U.S. market outperformance through the end of 2024 was fueled by the strength of the U.S. economy and the country's edge in design. We believe the global economy is beginning to shift from the design era to a build era, where outsized growth comes from capital heavy enterprises. The winners of this phase are in Taiwan, Japan, Korea, and parts of Europe, where advanced manufacturing remains concentrated. 3 What are the specific regional opportunities available in international markets? Dean: We have a large and increasing position in Japan. With the country's dominance in materials science and scaled manufacturing, our companies are seeing strong demand for high performance specialty materials used in aeroengines and nuclear reactors. On top of that, the government has made structural changes to enhance shareholder return, improve return on equity, and valuation multiples. We also see meaningful upside in defense and aerospace. Defense demand is supported by rising government budgets, while aerospace should benefit from stronger international travel, which increases aircraft utilization and drives higher maintenance needs. In addition, we expect positive earnings momentum in European financials, supported by credible cost takeout programs that should translate into substantial capital returns over the coming years.

This week is part two with Liz Cameron, author of Cult Bride and survivor of Korean religious group Jesus Morning Star, also known as JMS. Last week she discussed the slow process of indoctrination into the group, and this week Liz shares how she learned the community's deepest secret: the mysterious Pastor Joshua was actually named Jung Myung-seok, but he was REALLY the Second Coming of Jesus. And yes, he was currently sitting in prison in South Korea for committing sexual assault… but don’t worry, that was just because of persecution.Liz explains how all the carefully planned indoctrination leading up until this point primed her to be able to accept something like this, how she’d been identified to be one of the brides of the leader, what happened when she traveled to Korea to meet him in person, and how the eating disorder re-triggered by the group landed her in the hospital—but ultimately helped her get out of the group.

In 2007, the beloved former mayor of Suwon, Korea, demolished the home he and his wife had lived in for 30 years and built them a new house shaped like a toilet: curved walls, a toilet seat roof, and a bowl-shaped courtyard in the middle. For many spouses, this might be grounds for divorce, but the mayor had his reasons. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
