Local New challenges for restoring Korea's identity and human co-prosperity
By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young The Republic of Korea is currently experiencing a major economic, political, and social crisis. Although each of us has been living our lives to the best of our abilities, the reason we are facing such a difficult situation is because we have lost our identity as "people." Who owns Korea? The people of Korea. But unfortunately, the true sense of “people” is disappearing in our society. This is because we belong to various organizations, but we have lost our identity as a people, which should be the most fundamental thing. Since the founding of Korea, our soci

Local [Damwha Column 曇華風月] Constitutional Court of Korea's decision and judicial trust
By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young In order to maintain a just society, the law must be operated based on fairness and trust.

Local "Martial law" and "Enlightenment Order"

Local (Damwha Column) Wise words of Damwha
By Diplomacy Journal Kayla Lee Who can help the affairs of the sinking state? Who will set back right the miserable affairs of the sinking state? A world of power struggles and chaos, where the people wither. In the midst of the struggle for power, the people wither away. Wind and rain break the last of their loyalty. In the fierce wind and rain, even their loyalty may go broken. When will the day come when the darkness will lift and the mountains and rivers will be illuminated? The wind blows cold and the snow drifts thousand miles. The cold wind blows and the road becomes blurred in the flut
