What Our Readers Say
My work relies on understanding South Korea deeply from a distance. There hasn't been a better resource to help me do this effectively than Korea Pro. I particularly benefit from the excellent daily newsletter, which adeptly sorts signal from noise.

Korea is not an easy place for businesses, embassies and reporters to figure. It has all the appearance of a transparent, modern democracy, but can be confusing and contradictory at times. Chambers of commerce and other organizations do their best to help, but it's hard to find any that have done it as well as Korea Risk.
Barak Shine

Attending Seoul Circuit events has been an invaluable experience, offering unique opportunities to engage in meaningful discussions with experts and thought leaders on a variety of topics in Korea. The setting over casual dinner or drinks fosters genuine connections and insightful exchanges, making each event both enjoyable and professionally enriching.
