Why not women cabinet

I wouldn't ask for the formation of an all-female Cabinet but the current problem with the selection of Cabinet members would be solved by nominating female candidates. Why? We have a proud female president. Women nominees for any minister position, except for the defense minister perhaps, wouldn’t say, “Although I wanted to respond to allegations surrounding me, I have decid...

Cautioning against armed Japan

Regarding Japan's recent move to overturn its pacifist defense policy: Japan’s recent move to amend provisions of its postwar Constitution, which bans mobilization of its armed forces to settle disputes overseas is more alarming than it looks.

Shaking hands with China

On Oct. 19, 1950, at the peak of Korean War, Pyongyang fell to U.N. forces, and the two Koreas were just about to be unified under the jurisdiction of the U.N. and South Korea. On the same day, the People's Volunteer Army (PVA) crossed the Yalu River. The Chinese assault began at the eastern front of Heungnam. General Walker of the Eighth Army, U.S., was killed.

When child is born so are grandparents

Jane Han, reporting from New York for The Korea Times, now a happy and busy mother of twin girls, said in her Mom Spot column on June 21 that her grandparents, who came from Korea, treated her babies with complete lenience.

Double-faced government

I have become increasingly angry by what recently happened; two plainclothes policemen had dogged the bereaved families without any agreement until they were spotted. It appears that the authorities of the Korean police think that they are above the law and don't know that no one should be put under surveillance without due process of law. If not, how on earth could such an i...

Time to stop blaming government, crew

The whole country has blood on its hands and is responsible for the ferry disaster. People need to stop blaming the government and the Sewol crew and instead concentrate their efforts on eradicating the ills that plague Korean society: corruption, bribery, lax moral standards and reckless disregard for public safety, just to name a few.

'I pushed my daughter into water'

Mr. Huh, a 50-year-old factory worker, has seen several female corpses every time rescue divers brought bodies back from the sunken ferry Sewol and onto the rescue wharf. He believes his daughter will come back to him as there are still some 20 passengers trapped in the water-filled cabins. By the way, he was scared that he might not recognize his daughter even if she is brou...

Complaints about Gmarket

I am a Hong Kong customer of Gmarket. I ordered a few winter clothes and cosmetics on Gmarket in November 2013. However, due to some problems of Gmarket delivery, I still did not receive my parcel (now in May 2014).

Leaning building of Asan

A leaning officetel (office-hotel) in Asan, south of Seoul, shown on the page 3 of The Korea Times (May 13) resembles the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the freestanding 56 meter tall bell tower known worldwide for its unintended tilt to one side. The Tower of Pisa began to sink slowly after construction had progressed to the second floor. This was due to mere three-meter foundation,...

Public response to disast

An article written by Lee Chang-sup on May 2 touches on the deepest part of the nation's heart, and my mind as an expat who dearly loves this country. It shows insight in the analysis and incompleteness in the resolution of the Sewol tragedy, which is the truth.
