By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young Folk painting is a traditional art form embodying the Korean people's aesthetic sensibility and spirit of daily life. It fills the murals of ancient palaces and the folding screens of folk museums, and today, 200,000 folk painters wield their brushes. Yet, folk painting is nowhere to be found in the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism's (MCST) Cultural Arts Promotion Act. While crafts are included, and even ‘comics’ are covered, folk painting doesn't even have a name in the legal framework. Is this truly normal? The MCST proclaims the globalization of K-C

By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young This year marks the 80th anniversary of liberation, a deeply meaningful occasion. Over the past eight decades, the Republic of Korea overcame poverty through industrialization and transcended authoritarianism through democratization. These two pillars have been recorded as the ‘century of the nation’ and the ‘century of the people’. Yet today, we stand before a new question: “What should the Republic of Korea strive for in the future?” The national vision set forth by the Lee Jae-myung administration is clear: “A nation where the people are the masters, the R

By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young The central government and some local governments are expanding visa-free entry for Chinese tourists and even offering subsidies funded by taxes to attract more Chinese tourists. While citing the recovery of the tourism industry post-COVID-19 as justification, this amounts to nothing more than reckless gambling using local finances as collateral. China has long been central to Korea's tourism market, and visa-free expansion could temporarily inject vitality into aviation, lodging, and food services. However, increased tourist numbers do not automatically tran
