with everything going on in Korea. I know some of you have provided others, in the past, with links to popular national newspapers in Korea that are written in English. Could some of you be so kind as to post those links on here. I would love to keep current with Korean politics, cultural changes, etc. Thanks in advanced for your help everyone. Also, which papers do you feel are the best and why?

Would particularly recommend the second to last one in that list. RJK is articulate, balanced and about as objective as you can get on things Korean. Oh yeah, and before this turns into a haigiography, I'd suggest his sidebar as a means to explore further.

Thanks for the tip. I did google and use other sites as well. However, since you guys are usually very well informed, I wanted to see what YOU though as being credible enough to mention. I am sure there are many sites I can visit; I'd rather just read a selected few.
