Korea ( ko, 한국, or , ) is a peninsular region in East Asia. Since 1945, it has been divided at or near the 38th parallel, with North Korea (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) comprising its northern half and South Korea (Republic of Korea) comprising its southern half. Korea consists of the Korean Peninsula, Jeju Island, and several minor islands near the peninsula. The peninsula is bordered by China to the northwest and Russia to the northeast. It is separated from Japan to the east by the Korea Strait and the Sea of Japan (East Sea). During the first half of the 1st millennium, Korea was divided between three states, Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla, together known as the Three Kingdoms of Korea. In the second half of the 1st millennium, Silla defeated and conquered Baekje and Goguryeo, leading to the "Unified Silla" period. Meanwhile, Balhae formed in the north, superseding former Goguryeo. Unified Silla eventually collapsed into three separate states due to civil war ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Incheon District Court
Incheon (; ; or Inch'ŏn; literally "kind river"), formerly Jemulpo or Chemulp'o (제물포) until the period after 1910, officially the Incheon Metropolitan City (인천광역시, 仁川廣域市), is a city located in northwestern South Korea, bordering Seoul and Gyeonggi to the east. Inhabited since the Neolithic, Incheon was home to just 4,700 people when it became an international port in 1883. Today, about 3 million people live in the city, making it South Korea's third-most-populous city after Seoul and Busan. The city's growth has been assured in modern times with the development of its port due to its natural advantages as a coastal city and its proximity to the South Korean capital. It is part of the Seoul Capital Area, along with Seoul itself and Gyeonggi Province, forming the world's fourth-largest List of metropolitan areas by population, metropolitan area by population.

Chojoongdong
Chojoongdong ( ko, 조중동, ), abbreviated as CJD, is a pejorative term which refers to three highly circulated conservative newspapers in South Korea. The word is an acronym of the '' Chosun'', '' Joong-ang'' and '' Dong-a Ilbo'' newspapers, and the grouping is seen as forming the basis of South Korea's conservative media. The term was used by ''The Hankyoreh'' editor Jung Yeonju ( ko, 정연주) in October 2000. Korean liberals criticize Chojoongdong primarily because of their conservative-biased editorial stances and doing business in a collusive and surreptitious manner. Since 2008, some critics of CJD have claimed that there is a close relationship between CJD and the Lee Myung-bak government. As of 2010, the market share of ''Chosun'', ''Joong-ang'' and ''Dong-a Ilbo'' is 24.3%, 21.8%, and 18.3%, respectively. Nearly 58% of printed newspaper subscribers in South Korea read one of the three daily news. In December 2011, ''Chosun Ilbo'' opened their own cable news network. ...

Korean Teachers & Education Workers' Union
The Korean Teachers and Education Workers Union (KTU, ko, 전국교직원노동조합), also known as Jeon(-)gyojo ( ko, 전교조; acronym for ''KTU'' in Korean language) is a labor union of teachers in South Korea. The organization has 77,000 members (down from 94,000) among the 360,000 public and private school teachers in the country. History The KTU was founded in 1989 under opposition from the South Korean government. In response to its founding, several thousand members were subsequently fired by the education authorities. The KTU finally received official recognition in 1999 after the election of Kim Dae-Jung and many of the dismissed teachers were allowed to return to their former positions. A major contributor to the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions, the KTU is criticized for promoting pro- North Korea ideology as well as disseminating " anti-American" propaganda. By 2009, the KTU's ranks had dwindled, possibly due to parental and public opposition to its non- ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Gwangju
Gwangju () is South Korea's sixth-largest metropolis. It is a designated metropolitan city under the direct control of the central government's Home Minister. The city was also the capital of South Jeolla Province until the provincial office moved to the southern village of Namak in Muan County in 2005 because Gwangju was promoted to a metropolitan city and was independent of South Jeolla province. Its name is composed of the words ''Gwang'' () meaning "light" and ''Ju'' () meaning "province". Gwangju was historically recorded as ''Muju'' (), in which "Silla merged all of the land to establish the provinces of Gwangju, Ungju, Jeonju, Muju and various counties, plus the southern boundary of Goguryeo and the ancient territories of Silla" in the ''Samguk Sagi.'' In the heart of the agricultural Jeolla region, the city is also famous for its rich and diverse cuisine. History The city was established in 57 BC. It was one of the administrative centers of Baekje during the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
New Right (South Korea)
The New Right () movement in South Korean politics is a school of political thought which developed as a reaction against the traditional divide between conservatives (the "old right") and progressives. The New Right broke from past conservatives, who supported state intervention in the economy, by promoting economically liberal ideas. Many figures of the New Right have also become notable for criticising anti-Japanese sentiment in South Korea. Opponents of the New Right movement described this as anti-leftism, military dictatorship advocates, pro-''sadaejuui'', and " pro-Japanese identity". History Before the era of democratisation, South Korea had been ruled almost continuously by a series of dictatorships, such as those of Park Chung Hee and Chun Doo-hwan. These regimes were characterised by stringent anti-communism, authoritarianism, and state capitalism, and as a result these attributes came to be seen as hallmarks of the older generation of Korean conservatives. After 198 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Korean Name
A Korean name (Hangul: ; Hanja: ) consists of a family name followed by a given name, as used by the Korean people in both South Korea and North Korea. In the Korean language, ''ireum'' or ''seongmyeong'' usually refers to the family name (''seong'') and given name (''ireum'' in a narrow sense) together. Korean names are descended from Chinese names as part of Sino-Korean vocabulary. Traditional Korean family names typically consist of only one syllable. There is no middle name in the English language sense. Many Koreans have their given names made of a generational name syllable and an individually distinct syllable, though this practice is rarely seen nowadays. The generational name syllable is shared by siblings in North Korea, and by all members of the same generation of an extended family in South Korea. Married men and women keep their full personal names, and children inherit the father's family name unless otherwise settled when registering the marriage. The famil ...
