In Nov. 1970, at around 1:30 p.m. near the Kookmin Bank building in Cheonggyecheon, Seoul, cries pierced the air, “We are not machines!” and “Stop exploiting workers!” Moments later, a young man drenched himself in gasoline and set his body ablaze. Even in his final moments, he shouted, “Do not let my death be in vain!” That young man was Jeon Tae-il, who sacrificed himself to defend the most basic rights of workers. | |

From Asia to Africa and South America, anti-government protests led by Gen Z are spreading simultaneously across the globe, even triggering regime changes. Gen Z, born between the mid-1990s and the early 2010s, are often described as Digital Natives who grew up in a digital environment. They use social media platforms like Discord, TikTok, and Instagram as tools to organize protests. According to an analysis by Modern Diplomacy, experts view these movements as a more evolved form of resistance than Occupy Wall Street, the 2011 protest against economic inequality, or the Arab Spring, the wave of pro-democracy uprisings across the Middle East in the early 2010s. | |

Among Korea’s MZ generation, two seemingly contradictory lifestyle keywords have risen to prominence, “Godsaeng” (a meticulously structured and productivity-driven lifestyle) and “Aboha,” short for “aju botong-ui haru,” meaning a very ordinary day. While Godsaeng celebrates disciplined routines and constant self-improvement, Aboha embraces the comfort of an unremarkable and restful day. Interestingly, these two attitudes do not negate each other; rather, they coexist within the same generation— reflecting a landscape where some prioritize constant striving while others cherish the freedom of not burning out. | |

A short while ago, the Statue of Peace, which had been erected in the Mitte district of Berlin, Germany, was forcibly removed. In response, the Korea Verband (Korea Association) in Germany has initiated legal action. Within Korea, citizens who share this purpose, primarily led by the Korean Council for Justice and Remembrance (the Korean Council), are guarding the statue against hate groups demanding its removal. Why are these people striving to protect the statue? | |

The Hangang Bus (Han River Bus) began operation on Sept. 18, 2025, running along a 28km route between Magok and Jamsil, with seven piers in total—Magok, Mangwon, Yeouido, Oksu, Apgujeong, Ttukseom, and Jamsil. The vessels operate using environmentally friendly electric and hybrid systems, and their seating capacity ranges from 155 to 199 depending on the type of vessel. At the launch ceremony, Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon stated confidently, “I can say without hesitation that, in terms of improving the quality of life for Seoul citizens, the history of the Han River will be clearly divided into two eras before and after the Hangang Bus.” | |

A drop of water, born from the scars of war, has become one of the symbolic images of Korean contemporary art. This whole journey is brought together in one place at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA), Korea, Seoul, which is presenting this fall the first large-scale retrospective Kim Tschang-yeul since the artist’s passing. The exhibition runs until Dec. 21 in MMCA Seoul B1, Gallery 6 and 7, and 2F, Gallery 8. Kim Tschang-yeul was an abstract painter who lived through Korea’s modern history, its liberation, division, and war with his whole body, and he is now regarded as one of the representative artists of Korean contemporary art. | |

Since last July, a major renovation of the Research Building (S21-5) at the College of Agriculture, Life, and Environmental Sciences has been underway. The building, completed in 1981, is now over 40 years old. Users have persistently faced inconveniences such as corroded plumbing, faulty heating and cooling systems, and water leaks. These issues reached a point where emergency repairs alone were insufficient to maintain the facility. | |
