미국 오하이오주에 위치한 월마트 매장에서 갑작스럽게 들이닥친 사슴의 모습이 포착되면서 화제가 되고 있다. 매장에서 사슴을 목격한 손님들은 곧바로 영상을 찍어 올렸고, 영상 속에는 손님들과 직원들이 힘을 합쳐 사슴을 구석으로 유인해 출구를 찾는 모습이 담겨 있었다. 동영상 주인인 버트 무어는 촬영을 중단하고 다른 고객과 사슴을 가장 가까운 문으로 데리고 나가는 모습도 볼 수 있었다. 그는 WJW-TV와의 인터뷰를 통해 “나와 다른 남자는 실제로 사슴을 뒤집어 동물을 밖에 인도했다.”라고 말했다. 또한, 다행히 사슴의 부상이 심각하지는 않다며 나간 이후 근처 옥수수밭을 향해 달아났다고 후기를 전해줬다. (khnews@heraldcorp.com) 　

President Moon Jae-in contributed this article to The Korea Herald and Asia News Network member newspapers on the occasion of the 2019 ASEAN-Republic of Korea Commemorative Summit slated for Nov. 25-27 in Busan. – Ed.Next week, November 25-27, the 2019 ASEAN-Republic of Korea Commemorative Summit and the 1st Mekong-Republic of Korea Summit will be held in Korea. In particular, since my hometown Busan will play host to the events, I am very much looking forward to them – as if I have

Thirty years ago this week I was on my way to Prague to watch Czechoslovak communism end with the Velvet Revolution. The Berlin Wall had just fallen, the Soviet communist party was headed for collapse, and the Cold War would soon end.Five months earlier, Chinese leaders had cracked down on student admirers of Western democracy in Tiananmen Square. That tragedy didn’t stir the same geopolitical shock waves as the events in Europe, because China was still a poor, developing country.Yet 30 ye

What a gathering indeed. On one lucidly red and yellow-tinged autumn day, ministerial-level forestry officials of Korea and 10 ASEAN members gathered in Seoul to discuss ways forward for their reciprocal forest cooperation. The high-level meeting on forestry held on Oct. 31, prior to the 2019 ASEAN-ROK Commemorative Summit and the 1st Mekong-ROK Summit, was an auspicious occasion under the theme “Our Forests for Prosperity and Peace.” South Korean President Moon Jae-in added weight t

In the latest development of dispute between two South Korean battery makers, LG Chem said Thursday it had requested court intervention by the US International Trade Commission, alleging that SK Innovation attempted to destroy key evidence.“Circumstances show that SK Innovation, ever since it has filed suit, has continued systematic attempts to destroy evidence, such as sending out email instructions to employees to destroy related evidence,” LG Chem said in a statement.The company s

Once, someone asked me the reason I fell in love with South Korea. Well, falling in love is not something rational, but I do give it a thought. I came to the conclusion that it is both our differences and similarities that attract me to the country. When I first landed at Incheon International Airport, I had two contrasting feelings. While Korea mirrored my expectations I sensed like I was thrown into an alien world. Instantly, I also realized that I am too loud for Korea -- a mountain girl who

People all over the world are resorting to mass demonstrations to express grievances and press unmet demands. While, in some ways, popular protests are a triumph of democratic principles and civic activism, they also carry serious risks, including violence by and against protesters. Their pervasiveness today points to a failure of governments, democratic and authoritarian alike, to hear, let alone meet, the needs of their people.The issues at stake are wide-ranging. In Catalonia, demonstrators a

On every visit I’ve made to China, I’ve looked at issues connected with rule of law, a concept interpreted very differently here and in the US.On this trip, I decided to check out a joint program between Temple University and the law school at Tsinghua University, one of China’s finest, a program that is celebrating its 20th anniversary.Temple’s “Rule of Law” master’s degree program, taught on the sprawling, leafy Tsinghua campus, draws Chinese professio

In the 1970’s when the South Korean economy bypassed North Korea, the foreign press reported that it was finally in the stage of taking-off after a long taxi on the runway. Indeed, the whole world was watching South Korea’s successful take-off at the time. The South Koreans were very excited because they finally made their way out of the long, dark tunnel of postwar poverty.Recently, however, I came across a rather depressing newspaper article by professor Kim Young-min entitled, &ld

The island of Tsushima, halfway between Japan and South Korea, is about as close as you can get to the frontline of their trade war. Now part of Nagasaki prefecture, waves of Korean cultural, commercial and military influence have crested and receded over the hills of this verdant island since the Middle Ages.Here it’s apparent that centuries-old ties between the nations can’t be unwound by political rhetoric spewing from capital cities hundreds of miles away.
