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. Dasan Jeong Yak-yong (丁若鏞, 1762-1836), a Silhak scholar of the late Joseon Dynasty who studied practical matters, wrote "Heumheumsinseo欽欽新書" and sought ways to rationally enforce criminal law and prevent unjust prison cases. This was part of efforts to improve the judicial system at the time and is considered an important guideline for fair trials. In modern society, securing fairness and trust in the judicial system is an important task, and legal measures such as the

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

Local (Damwha Column) "Meditation in the mountain"
By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young The lunar new year has dawned, but the world is still in upheaval. Looking at the recent signs of economic, political, and natural disasters, we can intuit that 2025 is not going to be an ordinary year. This year, Damhwa would like to predict the flow of global changes at Mount Inwang on the occasion of the Ipchun (the onset of spring) and consider the direction we should take together. First, the U.S. will be the only relatively robust growth engine in the world economy with the election of President Trump. Technological innovation, energy independence, and

Local (Damwha Column) “Recall the value of society together!”
By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young In the ancient Chinese history book "Jwajeon 左傳," there is an old saying, “Sunmangchihan脣亡齒寒”. It translates to “Your teeth will freeze if you do not have lips,” and the lesson is that when one part of a tightly knit community breaks down, the others are jeopardized. It's not just a parable, but a reminder of the importance of community and the value of coexistence, which resonates deeply in modern society. Modern society is changing rapidly in the logic of technological advancement and competition. Individualism and independence are emphasized, and the phras

Local (Damwha Column) Why the occupation of history is scarier than that of territory
By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young History is the root of an individual's roots and the core of a nation's and people's identity. So when history is lost or distorted, it's not just about losing the past, it's about losing the present and the future. While the occupation of territory cannot transcend physical boundaries, the occupation of history shakes a people's memory, culture, and spirit to the core. It results in mental colonization and leaves lasting damage that transcends generations. When history is occupied, it destroys a nation's sense of identity and pride. For example, during Japan

Local (Damwha Column 曇華風月) “Acting president, temporary, but with the same responsibilities as the president”
By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young As stated in Article 71 of the Constitution and Article 16 of the Government Organization Act, the prime minister assumes the presidency in situations where the president is removed from office or unable to perform his or her duties. This is an essential system to ensure the continuity of state operations. The acting president temporarily assumes the powers and duties of the president, but is not technically the president. The word “acting” makes this clear. However, beyond the temporary nature of the position, the acting president is the de facto president,

Local (Damwha Column) What's the truth behind the controversial declaration of martial law by President Yoon Suk-yeol?
By Diplomacy Journal Lee Jon-young President Yoon Suk-yeol's declaration of martial law was a political decision made in the midst of a bitter confrontation with the largest opposition Democratic Party of Korea, and the legitimacy and controversy surrounding it have garnered much attention in South Korean politics and among the public. It is difficult to view this as a simple political party dispute. Martial law can only be declared in the event of a national crisis under the Constitution, and the debate over why the president declared martial law and its legitimacy has pitted the Democratic P
