Find the answer at the bottom. “Daebak (대박)” is a Korean slang term used to express excitement, amazement or approval. The word originally means “jackpot," often resulting in significant financial success, such as winning the lottery or a film becoming a mass box-office hit. In colloquial Korean today, the expression has broadened its usage to convey a sense of something being fantastic, surprising or overwhelmingly positive. People might say "daebak" when

By Kim Dong-kwon With the increasing globalization of crime and the ease of moving across borders, more criminals are absconding to other countries immediately after committing offenses. Furthermore, criminal organizations operate across multiple nations and quickly move their operation between countries with the intention to disrupt police investigations. In response, the Korean National Police Agency has made significant strides in apprehending and repatriating fugitives. Following the repatri

With every generation, we see older people lament that younger people are rude and undisciplined. In the eyes of the old, young people are impudent and insolent, impetuous and impulsive, in short: “enfants terribles.” Historians say that older people have been critical of younger people for the past 2,500 years or so of human history. Nevertheless, what about the image of the older generation in the eyes of the young? To young people, older people may look hopelessly pathetic and dep

My accent as an Englishman in America hasn’t protected me from the whiplash of dating and ghosting. It strikes me that many people prefer to leave silence to do the talking, rather than express an opinion that might not be well received. Yet ghosting is the epitome of bad manners. Surely as a society, we owe it to each other to be honest, giving closure rather than adding confusion? Unfortunately, it appears that ghosting isn’t just a phenomenon in dating. It’s everywhere, incl

Think back to late June and early July. The French far right was favored to win a snap parliamentary election. Trumpist judges in the United States were conveniently resolving the legal woes of the former president, who seemed to be gliding to victory after President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance. And while Britain was getting a Labor government, a new anti-immigration party led by the chief Brexiteer, Nigel Farage, had made unprecedented gains. Faced with it all, pundits warne

I eagerly waited until midnight on August 20, 2020, for the debut of BTS’ “Dynamite” on YouTube. The music video was released at midnight in my time zone -- Eastern Standard Time -- on a Thursday night. Why didn’t it debut at midnight in Korea? The reason is very simple. New singles are released at 12 midnight Thursday night (or technically Friday morning) Eastern Standard Time because the weekly Billboard Hot 100 chart begins its count of weekly sales and streams startin

Proposed Bill: Partial Amendment to the Act on the Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce Proposed by Rep. Cheon Jun-ho (Democratic

Do we need universal basic income? Some economists say we do. They claim that UBI -- a taxpayer-funded minimum monthly payment with no strings attached -- would reduce poverty and inequality; improve physical and mental health; and provide financial security so that recipients can earn a degree, launch a business, or care for family members. But we don’t have to take their word for it. A recent UBI experiment has given us some real-world results. Nineteen counties in Texas and Illinois tes
