  • Song Young-gil: Yoon Hye-in Must Make Her Own Decision, Kim Seung-won to Be Scrutinized at Hearing
    Song Young-gil: Yoon Hye-in Must Make Her Own Decision, Kim Seung-won to Be Scrutinized at Hearing Song Young-gil, a member of the Democratic Party, expressed contrasting views on September 9 regarding Kim Seung-won, the nominee for Minister of Justice, and Yoon Hye-in, the nominee for Minister of Gender Equality and Family, ahead of their confirmation hearings. He defended Kim, stating that the issues surrounding him should be verified during the hearing, while he pressured Yoon to make her own decision.During an appearance on YTN Radio's 'Jang Sung-cheol's News Myungdang,' Song said, "If Kim is scrutinized during the confirmation hearing and his explanations are thoroughly examined, the public will be convinced."Regarding Yoon, he warned, "If she does not resign from her ministerial candidacy, she may face difficulties in both the ministerial position and her proportional representation seat. If things go wrong, she might not be able to serve as a lawmaker at all."He pointed out the controversy surrounding Yoon's dual roles, stating, "Typically, local district lawmakers do not resign when taking on ministerial roles, but proportional representatives are not directly elected by the public. If she becomes a minister, she may not be able to fulfill her duties as a lawmaker effectively."He added, "Public sentiment is seriously unfavorable, especially among the 2030 generation. If appointing a minister from this demographic leads to adverse effects, that should be taken into account."In response to the allegations surrounding Kim regarding a 'COVID-19 drug solicitation,' he directed criticism at independent lawmaker Han Dong-hoon, saying, "This is an issue that should be verified during the hearing; it is not a matter for a witch hunt based on one person's statements."He accused Han of deliberately inflating the allegations, stating, "Since he is being overshadowed by the leader of the People Power Party, he is unnecessarily using Kim Seung-won as a pawn to create his own presence."Song further criticized the handling of evidence, saying, "I don't know how they obtained the evidence or recordings, but selectively editing and leaking them to create misunderstandings among the public and viewers is a typical misconduct of a special prosecutor. Engaging in such editing in Yeouido shows a lack of qualifications as a lawmaker."* This article has been translated by AI. 2026-09-09 10:24:10
  • South Korea Considers Deployment to Hormuz Amid Iranian Warnings
    South Korea Considers Deployment to Hormuz Amid Iranian Warnings The South Korean government is moving forward with discussions regarding a potential military deployment to the Hormuz Strait, prompted by U.S. pressure. The government has reiterated its stance on the warnings issued by Iran, stating that communication is ongoing.A senior official from the Blue House stated on September 9 during a press briefing in Paris that the topic of deployment should not be the sole focus of discussions surrounding the upcoming South Korea-France summit. "We are currently in the review stage, and nothing has been definitively decided," the official said. They also commented on the Defense Ministry's decision to send an investigation team to the United Arab Emirates, noting that this is part of the review process and that no final decisions have been made.The Defense Ministry announced the previous day that it had dispatched a team to assess the situation in Hormuz. The ministry emphasized that the investigation is aimed at understanding the local security environment and is not a precursor to deployment, countering claims that the U.S. had set a deadline for the deployment of South Korean assets to the Strait.Meanwhile, tensions between the U.S. and Iran have escalated. According to reports from the AP and other outlets, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) retaliated against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) after they launched two ballistic missile attacks targeting U.S. Navy ships over the past two days, striking five oil tankers in response.Iran has also issued warnings to South Korea. Esmail Baghaei, spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry, recently posted a message in Korean on social media, stating that military presence or participation in operations in the Hormuz Strait could be seen as direct support for U.S. aggression, potentially leading to serious consequences. He also included a photo with the phrase, "There will be a price for dangerous choices."In response, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Park Doo-soon held a regular briefing in Seoul, stating, "We are closely communicating with relevant parties to restore peace and stability in the Middle East and ensure the free passage of all vessels, including ours, through the Hormuz Strait," reiterating previous statements.Additionally, a Foreign Ministry official told reporters that they have not received any official protests from the Iranian Foreign Ministry. "Our diplomatic channels remain open, and we are not currently considering summoning the Iranian ambassador to South Korea," the official said, indicating a cautious approach as discussions about deployment continue.Jang Ji-hyang, a senior researcher at the Asan Institute for Policy Studies, suggested in a conversation with Aju Economy that South Korea could communicate to Iran that its vessels are trapped in the Hormuz Strait, which is vital for energy security, and that it seeks to engage in defensive activities in accordance with international norms for its national interests and the public good of the international community. He also mentioned that it might be worthwhile to revisit Iran's stance on incidents like the Namooho attack. 2026-09-09 10:24:00

  • Ransomware gangs turn on each other, Group-IB says
    Ransomware gangs turn on each other, Group-IB says SEOUL, September 09 (AJP) - Rival ransomware crews are increasingly fighting among themselves, weaponizing supply chains and enlisting artificial intelligence, in a shift South Korea felt early when one breach exposed dozens of its banks. Ransomware groups logged 2,393 attacks on their public leak sites in the first quarter, up 4.5 percent from the previous quarter, across 79 active groups, according to Group-IB's 2026 ransomware ecosystem report released Tuesday. The structure that once organized the trade is breaking down. A handful of large ransomware as a service operations used to recruit affiliates and split the proceeds, but affiliates skimming funds and operators refusing to pay have eroded trust in the criminal underground. The report said that it led to pushing more attackers to work alone and sharpening competition. Korea has already lived that scenario. The threat has already surfaced in Korea. Ransomware reports to the Korea Internet & Security Agency jumped to 192 in the second half of 2025 from 82 in the first half, and the January attack on conglomerate Kyowon Group crippled about 600 of its 800 servers and exposed as many as 9.6 million user accounts. AI is deepening the threat across the attack chain, Group-IB said, citing its use to help build the payload behind the group known as The Gentlemen and to set ransom demands based on victims' cyber insurance coverage. The firm urged companies to watch underground markets for stolen access before intrusions begin and to fold contractors and service providers into their security reviews. AJP Takeaways - Group-IB's 2026 ransomware ecosystem report, released Sept. 9, 2026, counted 2,393 attacks posted to leak sites by 79 active groups in the first quarter, up 4.5 percent from the previous quarter, as criminal operators fragmented into competing independent crews. - Ransomware reports to the Korea Internet & Security Agency rose to 192 in the second half of 2025 from 82 in the first half. - Attackers are increasingly using artificial intelligence to develop malware and calibrate ransom demands, prompting Group-IB to urge firms to monitor underground access markets and extend security assessments to contractors and service providers. 2026-09-09 10:22:26

  • Hwachuns Sunlight Pension Takes Center Stage at Global Winter Cities Conference
    Hwachun's 'Sunlight Pension' Takes Center Stage at Global Winter Cities Conference The 'Hwachun-style Sunlight Pension,' a key policy of the 9th elected term of Hwachun County in Gangwon Province, was introduced at the Global Winter Cities Conference. Hwachun County plans to share solar power generation profits with residents and shift its tourism industry, centered around the Sancheoneo Festival, to increase stays and consumption.According to Hwachun County, Mayor Kim Se-hoon presented the Sunlight Pension concept on September 8 during the first session of the 21st Global Winter Cities Conference in Rovaniemi, Finland.Mayor Kim stated, "The Sancheoneo Festival, which began in 2003 in the frigid land of Hwachun, is a representative tourism model that turned a crisis into an opportunity. Now, we are preparing for a greater challenge in the face of another crisis: population decline."The Hwachun-style Sunlight Pension involves establishing solar power facilities on the surface of Paro Lake and on vacant military land, with the profits generated being returned to the residents. The initiative aims to reduce carbon emissions during the operation of the Sancheoneo Festival and provide a stable income base for residents.Mayor Kim explained, "We will build solar power facilities on the surface of Paro Lake and on vacant military land to share profits with residents. We are developing a strategy to gradually expand our power generation capacity, starting with floating solar panels." Following the presentation, representatives from participating cities, including Rovaniemi, expressed interest in the project's feasibility and expected benefits. On the same day, Mayor Kim was appointed as the Vice Chair for Asia and Oceania at the Global Winter Cities Conference.During this visit, Hwachun County also outlined policies for the qualitative growth of its tourism industry. On September 7, Mayor Kim and Hwachun County Council Chairman Jo Woong-hee visited the headquarters of LAPPSET, a company that produces wooden play facilities, to examine production facilities and products, assessing potential wooden installations for Hwachun's tourist sites and public facilities.On September 8, the delegation visited 'Visit Rovaniemi,' the dedicated tourism marketing organization in Rovaniemi, to explore tourism marketing and experiential program operations utilizing Santa Claus content.Visit Rovaniemi is a public-private partnership tourism organization, with the city of Rovaniemi holding a 51% stake and local tourism businesses holding 49%. It supports not only tourism promotion and information provision but also the sale of tourism products from local businesses.Hwachun County plans to reference Visit Rovaniemi's public-private cooperation model and integrated marketing system as it considers establishing a tourism foundation. Mayor Kim invited the Visit Rovaniemi delegation to the Hwachun Sancheoneo Festival in January next year and proposed joint tourism content utilizing Santa Claus.The policy direction of Hwachun County focuses on creating a structure that retains the profits generated from energy and tourism within the region. The Sunlight Pension has the potential to become a long-term source of income for residents that is not heavily influenced by the number of tourists or economic fluctuations. Utilizing Paro Lake and military vacant land can also reduce the burden of securing new large-scale sites.However, before actual implementation, securing development sites, verifying project feasibility, connecting to the power grid, addressing environmental and aesthetic issues, and consulting with relevant agencies must be completed. The criteria for profit distribution and methods for resident participation should also be clearly established from the project's outset.In the tourism sector, shifting the focus of policies from visitor numbers to increasing stay duration and local spending is crucial. Connecting the Sancheoneo Festival and Santa Claus content to accommodations, food, experiences, and local products, while ensuring tourism businesses directly participate in product development and operations, will enhance the economic ripple effect.Ultimately, the success of the Hwachun-style Sunlight Pension and the tourism industry hinges on execution rather than mere declarations. If the economic viability of solar power generation is secured and a system is established for tourism profits to benefit residents and local businesses, these two policies could establish a regional income model in Hwachun that responds to population decline.Mayor Kim Se-hoon stated, "We will focus on qualitative growth in Hwachun's tourism industry to enhance its contribution to the local economy."* This article has been translated by AI. 2026-09-09 10:16:10

  • Another DUI Incident? Lee Hyuk-jae Involved in Motorcycle Collision in Songdo
    Another DUI Incident? Lee Hyuk-jae Involved in Motorcycle Collision in Songdo Television personality Lee Hyuk-jae is under police investigation for a drunk driving incident in Songdo, Incheon.On September 9, the Incheon Yeonsu Police Station announced that Lee has been charged with drunk driving under the Road Traffic Act.According to police, Lee is accused of colliding with the rear of a motorcycle that was stopped at a traffic signal around 10 p.m. the previous day, injuring the 20-something motorcycle rider.Fortunately, the rider, identified as A, did not sustain serious injuries, but Lee was found to be driving under the influence. At the time of the accident, his blood alcohol concentration was within the range that can lead to a license suspension (0.03% to less than 0.08%).It has been confirmed that there were no passengers in Lee's vehicle.A police official stated, “If the injuries to the victim are confirmed, charges under the Special Act on Traffic Accidents may also be applied.”This is not the first time a celebrity has faced scrutiny for drunk driving. Recently, actor Lee Jae-ryong and pop artist Nancy Lang were also reported for similar offenses.Lee Jae-ryong was involved in an incident on March 6, around 11:03 p.m., when he crashed his car into a central divider while driving under the influence in Cheongdam, Gangnam, Seoul. The collision caused approximately 3 million won in damages to the divider, but he left the scene without taking any action.About 20 minutes later, at around 11:23 p.m., he visited a restaurant in Sinsa-dong and reportedly consumed more high-end distilled soju, leading to allegations of attempting to evade a breathalyzer test by drinking more alcohol, a practice known as 'drunk driving evasion.'However, during police questioning, he denied drinking before the hit-and-run incident but later admitted to having consumed four glasses of soju and claimed he thought he had only lightly brushed against the divider.Nonetheless, prosecutors determined that there was insufficient evidence to prove Lee's blood alcohol level at the time of the accident, leading to a decision not to charge him with drunk driving. He is facing trial for leaving the scene of the accident and obstructing a breathalyzer test.Lee Jae-ryong had previously faced legal issues for drunk driving, including a 2019 incident where he knocked over a sign at a bowling alley in Gangnam, resulting in a deferred prosecution for property damage, and a 2003 incident in the same area where he had his license revoked for refusing a breathalyzer test after a drunk driving accident.Nancy Lang was also apprehended for driving under the influence around 3:45 a.m. on September 8, after driving approximately 3 kilometers in a drunken state in the Gangnam area. The Gangnam Police Station has reportedly charged her with drunk driving under the Road Traffic Act, although she claimed through the media that she had only consumed a couple of glasses of champagne and was not inebriated, asserting that reports of her being charged were false. The police plan to summon Nancy Lang for questioning soon.* This article has been translated by AI. 2026-09-09 10:16:00
  • Ruling Party Criticizes Prosecutors Office Reorganization Plan
    Ruling Party Criticizes Prosecutor's Office Reorganization Plan The ruling party is facing backlash over the Ministry of Justice's proposal to maintain the current number of prosecutors in its reorganization plan for the Prosecutor's Office. There are also calls to reconsider the appointment of the newly nominated chief of the Serious Crimes Investigation Agency due to past statements.According to reports from the political arena on September 9, Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Yong-min criticized the proposal during a press conference the previous day, stating, "Maintaining the existing investigative personnel in the Prosecutor's Office is a Trojan horse for the revival of a political prosecution." He further asserted, "The establishment of a 'Judicial Control Department' to oversee other agencies that should be controlled is a clear case of hypocrisy." The Ministry of Justice's proposal, announced on September 4, aims to keep the current number of 2,292 prosecutors without reduction and includes the establishment of a Judicial Control Department to review cases not prosecuted by investigative agencies.Former Democratic Party leader Jeong Cheong-rae also pointed out on Facebook on September 7 that the current proposal does not completely eliminate the shadow of investigation, leaving room for misunderstandings that prosecutors' investigative powers could be revived at any time.Lee Seong-yoon, a Democratic Party lawmaker and former prosecutor, shared Jeong's post on Facebook, stating, "Simply changing the name from the Prosecutor's Office to the Prosecutor's Office is not true reform. To achieve genuine reform, we must align personnel, organization, and regulations with the complete separation of investigation and prosecution." There are also calls within the ruling party to reconsider the appointment of Kim Ji-yong, the newly nominated chief of the Serious Crimes Investigation Agency, appointed by President Lee Jae-myung.Democratic Party lawmaker Park Joo-min stated on Facebook the day before that Kim, while serving as the head of the Criminal Division at the Supreme Prosecutors' Office in 2022, publicly opposed legislation aimed at reducing prosecutorial powers by advocating for the necessity of direct investigations. He requested that if Kim's clear philosophy on the principle of 'separation of investigation and prosecution' is not confirmed, the appointment should be reconsidered.The Justice Innovation Party, aligned with the ruling party, has also expressed public opposition. Kang Kyung-sook, deputy floor leader of the Justice Innovation Party, stated during a party meeting the day before, "It is regrettable that another prosecutor has been nominated, and we cannot agree to the appointment." * This article has been translated by AI. 2026-09-09 10:16:00
  • SK hynix CEO Kwak No-jung: AI Memory Market Requires Flexible Adaptation
    SK hynix CEO Kwak No-jung: AI Memory Market Requires Flexible Adaptation Kwak No-jung, CEO of SK hynix, likened the memory market in the age of artificial intelligence (AI) to a constantly changing "curved road," emphasizing the need to seek new business and technology opportunities from the perspectives of customers and partners. He outlined plans for the company to evolve into a 'full-stack AI memory' provider, offering memory solutions optimized for AI workloads, including high-bandwidth memory (HBM).On September 9, SK hynix reported that Kwak made these remarks at the '2026 SK hynix Future Forum' held the previous day at the Supex Center in Icheon. He stated, "While the past memory market was a straight road where the competition was about who could run faster, the current market resembles a curved road that changes constantly."He added, "It is important to not only understand our internal capabilities but also to grasp the speed and direction of changes in the external environment and adapt flexibly. We need to shift our perspective to 'outside-in' and reassess what we have taken for granted from the viewpoint of our customers and partners to find new possibilities amid the changes in the AI ecosystem."The forum, themed 'Golden Time in the AI Era: AI Memory Solution Creators Changing the World,' focused on the changes in work methods and memory technology due to the spread of AI. Participants included industry representatives from both domestic and international AI and semiconductor sectors, as well as academic experts.There are predictions that AI will transform the work methods in the memory industry. Tariq Shihab, head of products at Anthropic, forecasted the establishment of a 'software factory' in the semiconductor industry that utilizes AI for circuit simulation, power measurement, and system optimization. He anticipated that as AI integrates with hardware like robots, its application scope in manufacturing will expand.SK hynix is already applying AI in its production processes. The company is systematizing the use of AI to analyze process and equipment data during mass production, and when anomalies occur on the production line, AI analyzes relevant data to suggest causes and solutions. They are preparing the 'GaiA' platform for fab production operations and are also utilizing safety monitoring robots and vision-language model (VLM) drones for high-altitude tasks.As AI advances, the focus of the memory business is expected to shift from supplying general products to system optimization. This is due to the evolution of AI from 'reactive AI,' which simply responds to queries, to 'agentic AI,' which performs long-term tasks, resulting in an increase in the data that needs to be stored and processed.In response, SK hynix plans to strengthen its 'full-stack AI memory' strategy by combining various memory types, including HBM, DRAM, CXL, and SSD, tailored to AI workloads. The company aims to co-design with ecosystem partners, including AI services, software, and accelerator companies, from the system level to optimize performance, power efficiency, and total cost of ownership (TCO). This strategy aims to expand their role beyond that of a simple memory supplier to a business that co-designs AI systems.The technology expected to determine next-generation competitiveness is '3D memory.' As miniaturization approaches physical limits and power consumption increases due to data movement, the importance of vertically connecting memory and logic is growing. SK hynix has identified key technological directions, including expanding data bandwidth, ultra-short-distance transmission, and utilizing logic foundry for DRAM peripheral circuits.Notably, the expansion of 3D technology is expected to blur the technical boundaries between front-end and back-end processes, as well as between memory and foundry. Son Ho-young, vice president of SK hynix, stated, "3D technology is changing the technical boundaries between fabs and packaging," emphasizing the importance of creating new collaborative optimization and cooperation systems that go beyond existing domains alongside innovations in advanced packaging technology.SK hynix plans to link the discussions from this forum to the business and technology challenges of each organization. The company aims to solidify its foundation to become a 'full-stack AI memory creator' that provides memory solutions optimized for the AI era, leveraging the competitiveness gained from HBM.* This article has been translated by AI. 2026-09-09 10:16:00
