Need your news fix in English on stuff about Korea?

Here’s what I read and/or in my RSS Reader:

Korea Herald – http://www.koreaherald.co.kr/ – Hands down one of the best newspapers in Korea on Korea.

Korea Times – http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/index.asp – Also another good newspaper in Korea on Korea

Ohmynews – http://english.ohmynews.com/ -Citizen journalism

Republic of Korea’s Official Website – http://www.korea.net/ – They have frequent contests and its a very attractive site.

Others:

Chosun Ilbo – http://english.chosun.com/ – Sites too simple… I don’t like reading it.

Donga Ilbo – http://english.donga.com/ – Sites ugly

Invest Korea – http://www.investkorea.org/ – Investment news… beyond my level of interest.

Joonang Daily – http://joongangdaily.joins.com/ - Not enough content

Korea Post – http://www.koreapost.com/ – Sites ugly

Korea Travel Times – http://www.koreatraveltimes.com/ – Travel Information for English speakers in Korea

Seoulites – http://webzine.seoul.go.kr/ – Webzine that’s updated quarterly

Seoul Metropolitan Government – http://english.seoul.go.kr/ – Updated Weekly

Seoul Times – http://www.theseoultimes.com/ – Haven’t really checked this one out

However I feel that blogs are probably one of the fastest ways to get information quickly:

The Daily Kimchi -Random Daily Korean News

Korea Beat – Translates Korean news articles into English

Korean Law Blog – News about Korean law changes

Marmot’s Hole – It’s a good general news about Korea

Pop Seoul – Pop news about Korean Celebrities

Zen Kimchi -  Random Korean News
