The Korea Herald was founded in 1953 by a group of Korean journalists and business leaders who saw the need for an English-language newspaper that could provide international readers with news and insights about South Korea. The idea behind the publication was to create a platform that would help bridge the gap between Korea and the global community, offering a local perspective on the country's political, economic, and cultural developments. Today, The Korea Herald is owned and operated by Herald Corporation, one of the largest media conglomerates in South Korea. The Korea Herald covers a wide range of topics, including national and international politics, business and finance, sports, entertainment, and lifestyle. While the publication's primary focus is on news and events in South Korea, it also provides coverage of regional and global affairs that impact the country. Based in Seoul, the capital of South Korea, The Korea Herald has a team of experienced journalists and contributors who bring their expertise and connections to the publication. One interesting fact: Despite the challenges facing the traditional media industry, The Korea Herald has managed to maintain its position as one of the most influential and widely-read English-language newspapers in South Korea. The publication's commitment to providing high-quality, in-depth reporting on the country's affairs has earned it a reputation as a trusted source of information for both domestic and international readers.
The Korea Herald is ranked 3,998 among other media sources and has an average of 1,497,000 monthly visits according to Similar Web.
