Sorry man, but that isn't a proper news site from what I see, but just another K-blog reprinting stories. Perhaps I'm wrong and it has it's own reporters, but even then it's only offering a very thin slice of the news, not covering enough to do any more than supplement what I read in the Herald already. I'll stick to other sources, sorry.

www.koreandaily.wordpress.com is only in its initial stages, giving links to Korean news stories on a daily basis, but the site has plans to progress in the future with its own stories . If you have any suggestions for improvements to the site please email me at [email protected] Thanks. Graham.

For a second I thought there was another site out there called KoreanNewsFeed - made my heart skip a beat. Funny!

Hey Graham, I'm adding a new "Mini Feeds" section next week with hundreds of additional Korea related blogs & sites. I'll add KoreanDaily to the list.

I'm gonna go get the papers - get the papers: KoreanNewsFeeds.com

Kids these days are getting more sly at pimping their stuff.

It's not a news site, it's a blog that simply links to other stories, something dozens of people are already doing, and doing more completely.
http://kushibo.blogspot.com
http://briandeutsch.blogspot.com
http://rokdrop.com
http://www.rjkoehler.com

New sites like this come along pretty often in Korea, trying to reinvent the wheel, but rarely last more than a few months, and don't provide any new or original content.

I wish you luck, and hope you have fun doing it, but don't get too carried away putting yourself alongside the news sites you're borrowing from. It's only been a week.
