  • Still adjusting

    Professor Yang from Catholic Uni is the best. Give him more air time. Incredibly clear and gifted at distilling complex economics into comprehensible talk.

    Really sad no more host Kwon Jang-ho. Miss his brisk pacing and news bites. He was an exceptional host.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Korea 24 - 2026.06.05
Q: Ms Seabrook, what is the single most important takeaway from these findings for listeners who may not follow climate science closely, and is there a message for Korea?
The core takeaway is that the climate is warming and the next five years are likely to see temperatures stay at or above record highs, so people should prepare for more extreme heat and related impacts, while individuals and societies should reduce emissions to limit this warming as much as possible.
Korea 24 - 2026.06.04
Q: What do the ballot shortages mean for future elections and trust in the system?
Ballot shortages reveal institutional weaknesses and could undermine public trust; while an apology helps, a broader reform package and perhaps targeted by-elections might be necessary to restore confidence.
Korea 24 - 2026.06.04
Q: First off, Professor Kim, what do these results tell us about the current public sentiment?
The results show a mixed mood: a broad DP sweep nationally, but a resilient conservative strand in Seoul and other key areas, suggesting voters want accountability and reform within the ruling coalition while avoiding a complete reject of conservatism.
Korea 24 - 2026.06.03
Q: What are the main takeaways from the Seoul mayoral projection?
The main takeaway is that Jung Oh-no of the Democratic Party is projected to win Seoul with about 51.4% while Oh Se-hoon trails at 46%, reflecting the DP's strong local footing and its alignment with the sitting president's popularity.
Korea 24 - 2026.06.01
Q: What happened at the Hanwha Aerospace plant in Daejeon?
An explosion killed at least five people, with several others injured, and authorities launched a large-scale response including many first responders and heavy equipment; investigations into the cause and safety compliance followed.
