1. Leafleting: decisive propaganda or empty provocation?
[1] Even in the 21st century with all its technical wizardry and social media, old-fashioned propaganda leaflets seem to matter a great deal on Korean Peninsula, the world’s last remaining Cold War frontier.
*wizardry: 마법
*social media: SNS
*old-fashioned: 고전적인
*propaganda leaflets: 삐라, 선전 전단지
*frontier: 국경
[2] The act of flying huge gas-filled balloons carrying leaflets and other materials denouncing the rival regime has lately become the source of sudden ratcheting up of tensions between the two Koreas.
*denounce: 비난하다
*ratcheting up: 증가시키다
*tension: 긴장감
[3] Enraged by defectors here sending anti-North Korea leaflets across the border, Pyongyang last week publicly blew up the inter-Korean liaison office in its border city Kaesong, which served as a de facto embassy between the two Koreas. It warned to take further actions, including sending its own propaganda leaflets across the Southern border.
*enraged: 격노하다
*defector: 탈북자
*blew up: 폭발시키다
*liaison office: 연락 사무소

[2] While the government paid more in benefits to those who lost their jobs in all 17 regions nationwide, data from the Korea Employment Information Service showed disparities among regions.
*disaprity: 격차
[3] Jeju Province had 8,286 recipients in April, compared with 5,135 in January, when the first coronavirus case was reported in Korea. That is a 61.3 percent increase, the highest in the nation.
