There are definitely two Koreas—within South Korea.

In one, massive demographic changes outside Seoul are collapsing regional housing construction companies.

In the other, Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon, who never saw a problem he couldn't make worse, has tipped off a speculative real-estate rush by loosening regulations, creating impossibly high housing prices in parts of the city

Goryeo-era Buddha statue, looted by pirates in 1377, returns to #Korea temporarily, after 647 years

« The 50.5-centimeter-tall Buddhist statue that Japanese pirates plundered and took to their country had been one of the two bronze statues that Korean thieves stole back from Kannon Temple on the Japanese island of Tsushima in October 2012. »

📚🖋️ #JohannesGutenberg is commonly perceived as the inventor of #printing, yet, #Asia pioneered printing centuries earlier. From the #DiamondSutra of 868 CE from #China to #Korea's metal movable type predating #Gutenberg's Bible by 80 years, Asia's innovations laid the groundwork for global information exchange. Inspired by a visit to the #GutenbergMuseum in #Mainz, I explored the fascinating history of printing in this article:

South #Korea Martial Law and WelsonJS Project

Today in Labor History December 12, 1945: The U.S. Army Military Government (USAMG), which occupied and controlled the southern half of the Korean peninsula from 9/8/45-8/15/48, outlawed the People’s Republic of Korea, which was occupied by the USSR. The USAMG banned strikes and opposition movements and starved civilians, leading to a deadly cholera outbreak and exacerbating popular discontent. Less than a year later, the Communist Party organized a General Strike. Deadly repression against the strikers further worsened discontent, leading to the Daegu and Jeju uprisings, in which thousands of workers were slaughtered by Korean forces, directed by U.S. advisors. In Jeju, up to 30,000 people, 10% of the entire population, were executed.

GENERAL STRIKE ANNOUNCED

Trade union confederation announces general strike

The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) has announced a general strike in response to Yoon’s declaration of martial law and called for the president to resign, according to Korean media.

“We will go on an indefinite general strike until the Yoon administration steps down,” the union said in a statement.

The union drew a connection to the martial law order and previous efforts by military forces to undermine democracy, which often included attacks on organised labour.

“Martial law was the means chosen by Park Chung-hee, Chun Doo-hwan, and the military dictatorship to destroy democracy and human rights in order to extend their power,” KCTU said

"A dog that chases away evil spirits and misfortune".
Sapsali has a rich history going back to Silla , 230 AC.
Kept by aristocrats first, later by commoners.
Appearing in many legends and myths, almost extinct in the 1990 ' s
Saved by Dr. Ha Ji-hongs, who brought it back from the last 8 dogs remaining.
Sapsali is a protected race now.

Hello, I'm an open source software engineer in my late 30s living in #Seoul, #Korea, and an avid advocate of #FLOSS and the #fediverse.

I'm the creator of @fedify, an #ActivityPub server framework in #TypeScript, and @hollo, a fediverse microblog for single users.

I'm also very interested in East Asian languages (so-called #CJK) and #Unicode. Feel free to talk to me in #English, #Korean (#한국어), or #Japanese (#日本語), or even in Literary Chinese (#文言文/#漢文)!
