  • “We don’t edit newspapers. We edit Korea.”
지난 3월20일자로 발행된 ‘주간 한미일보’ 창간호에 게재된 원고입니다. <편집자주>



Towards a South Korea where common sense prevails, 'Hanmiilbo' has once again made a bold decision. Confident that new opportunities lie hidden within every crisis and at every turning point, we take our first step into the weekly magazine market today.


The media landscape our society faces today is truly dire. In an environment riddled with extreme left-leaning bias and prejudice, operating a newspaper with common sense, rationality, and sound judgment is itself a challenge and a revolution.


The domestic media market is constrained by a structural limitation where corporate advertising is exchanged with portal contracts as a prerequisite. However, 'Hanmiilbo' has broken through the barriers of giant portals like Naver, Daum, and Google to reach you, our readers.


Seeking fair compensation for our efforts is in no way comparable to shallow schemes like "coin selling." Despite the biased media environment, 'Hanmiilbo' continues to move forward steadfastly and firmly towards its journalistic mission every day.


Moving forward, with a resolve to cut to the bone and a stance of sharpening our knives, we will imbue every sentence and every line with honesty and sincerity as we approach our readers.


It is difficult to expect perfection from the outset. However, we firmly believe that our current shortcomings are the beautiful starting point for the brilliant future we will one day face. The trust and support you, our readers, have shown us are our driving force. As your reliable partner, 'Hanmiilbo' will write a new history with you.


While external pressure and interference from those in power are intensifying daily, we will uphold our commitment to you, our readers, until the very end. As true journalists, we will achieve differentiation from established media outlets with a heavy sense of responsibility and a sharp perspective that pierces through the times. We will respond to your support with unique content of a different caliber and depth.


We solemnly pledge to become a newspaper that acts and practices based on the stern truth that 'the most fearsome entity is the reader.' We ask for your warm encouragement and unwavering support on this arduous journey.


In an era tainted by fraudulent elections, and under the absurd circumstances where an innocent incumbent president is imprisoned due to the conspiracies of anti-state forces, 'Hanmiilbo' has been creating its newspaper, pouring its soul into every line and every page, with the fervent resolve to "speak the truth even if our heads are severed," and we will continue to do so.


Finally, with a profound sense of mission, we make this promise to you, our readers.


“Editing Korea” 

"We will not stop at editing the newspaper. We edit Korea." 


Heo Gyeom, Publisher of Hanmiilbo
