  • Leading Korean media outlet News & Post (NNP) launches policy analysis journal 'Korea Signal'
  • The True Face of Korea as Seen by Washington... Direct Distribution to the U.S. Congress on the ROK-U.S. Alliance and Security Issues
  • Expectations for bridging ROK-US policies, from North Korea's nuclear program and the Chinese Communist Party response to Indo-Pacific security.



News & Post (NNP), a prominent overseas Korean media outlet in the United States, has launched 'The Korea Signal', a specialized media outlet for policy and security analysis on Korea-US relations. 


According to NNP, which has a special agreement with the Hankook Ilbo, The Korea Signal will feature Jin Cummings, a well-known policy columnist, as Co-Editor and Senior Columnist. Lee Hyun-seung, Chairman of the Assembly of North Korean Youth Leaders and a strategist from North Korea active in Washington D.C., will also join as Director of External Cooperation.


The Korea Signal is a specialized policy analysis media outlet for Korea-US relations, launched based on News & Post's accumulated experience in media operations, digital broadcasting infrastructure, the Korean-American reader base, and its political and current affairs analysis capabilities.


In particular, it is expected to distinguish itself as a policy-focused journal that analyzes issues requiring the attention of policymakers in Korea and the United States, focusing on the Korea-US alliance, the North Korean nuclear issue, the expanding influence of the Chinese Communist Party, Indo-Pacific security, supply chain realignment, and issues of liberal democracy and the rule of law, delivering these analyses directly to the U.S. Congress and political circles. 


The Korea Signal emphasizes that South Korea today faces the influence of the Chinese Communist Party beyond the Korean Peninsula due to its geopolitical importance and has the contemporary task of growing into a reliable ally of the United States in the Indo-Pacific security environment.


However, it is a fact that political, social, and security issues discussed in the Korean-speaking world have not been adequately conveyed to U.S. policymakers. Conversely, issues concerning the Korean Peninsula as viewed by Washington policymakers, congressional officials, and think tank leaders have also not been accurately conveyed to Korea in their proper context. The Korea Signal aims to bridge this gap. 


The Korea Signal, featuring content in both English and Korean, updates its analytical articles on the first and third Mondays of each month. The print magazine will be distributed to U.S. congressional offices and policy stakeholders, conveying the true aspects of Korea to Washington that mainstream media has not been able to, and will also serve to deliver deep insights from Washington to Korea, according to the production team. 


The inaugural issue includes contributions and interviews from Fred Fleitz, Vice Chairman of the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) and former Chief of Staff of the National Security Council (NSC) under the Trump administration, Robert Joseph, former Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security, Ri Jong-ho, former senior economic manager of North Korea's Party 39 Office, and Song Jin-ho, lawyer for President Yoon Suk-yeol. Exclusive analytical pieces by Jin Cummings are also featured.


Sung Ku Hong, CEO of NNP, stated, "Please join us in accurately conveying the Korea-US alliance, liberal democracy, and the political and security realities of Korea to Washington." He added, "We ask for your keen interest and support so that The Korea Signal can establish itself as a medium that accurately relays internal political and security situations in Korea to U.S. political circles."

    <p>Anti-communism!!! Let's create a stronger, fiercer wave of freedom. Let's sweep away the followers of the devilish, tens of thousands of times more malicious than the Japanese, "Gwi-tae" (Great Mire Kim Il-sung's turd, a doubly cursed, vulgar bastard) Kim Tong, and the native Juche-aligned gangsters of the Southern Korean People's Democratic Republic, and achieve a prosperous, free, and unified Republic of Korea.</p>
