An insightful article to put in the Social Affairs section. Very in depth.

I wonder how long it took to write that?

I don't really get your sarcasm, are you going to rife through every little piece that paper does from now on?

Shetan, you should actually subscribe to the Joongang Ilbo. It's a good paper, but what you're saying is an article is really a photograph with a caption. Obviously.

I appreciate the Joongang Ilbo. I go back and forth between the Korea Herald and the Korea Times. KT gives more space to substantive articles, but has a tiny bit of awkward English that trips me up occasionally. Korea Herald is a bit short in content length for me sometimes. Between the three papers, I'm usually able to get all the cited facts and historical commentary/context than if I had just read one.

For a while I was subscribed to Joongang Ilbo and Korea Herald. Now I just get the Joongang Ilbo, which comes with the amazing International Herald Tribune. IHT itself keeps me from moving back to the U.S. just so I can get the NYT. However, I wish I could get the NYT Sunday Magazine. Then I'd be set.

I was looking through this list of articles written... many of them lengthy...

http://joongangdaily.joins.com/article/list.asp?cat_code=030201

I opened the article based on the caption and found the caption was the artcle...

just seemed strange.

And no.. just this once...
