Check out the video to hear my thoughts on the speech and how South Korean principles of psychological warfare may also be applied to the current Ukraine-Russia crisis, particularly if we want to target that slow-moving 40-mile Russian convoy that's coming to invade Kyiv

If you've wondered how your beautiful liberal western democracy would devolve under the spreading threat of authoritarianism brought about by dictators like Putin, look to South Korea's civil society.

Collectively, the three nations would add almost $400 billion to Russia's approximately $1.6 trillion GDP. That would make the math just right to get to $2 trillion.

Ever wanted a real simple explanation of the difference between the way Seoul and Busan people speak? The secret is in the verb placement in the sentence.

The third debate for South Korea's 2022 presidential election showed the candidates a bit worn, but a bit more honest. They tried to focus on the economy, but they really spent most of their time on the attack.

What is going on in Putin's mind? And in the minds of Russians and Ukrainians? To understand this mindset in a context that doesn't take any current political sides, let's travel back in time to 1842.

The New York MTA's yearly budget of $17.5 billion dollars is approximately THE SAME as North Korea's annual GDP. Yeah, it's North Korea, but the way that the NYC subway is looking, I'd say it's a fair comparison. Just sayin'.

Son Jung Min's father reminds us that it's still super sus that Mister A was found with his son's phone the morning after the two went to the Banpo Han River Park where his son went missing and only Mister A survived the night.

Will #pantygate bring down the liberal candidate for president in South Korea? A wife ordered a gov't employee to organize her panty drawer among numerous tasks! Panties!?

Conservative presidential candidate Yoon Seok-yeol’s wife isn’t clear of her stock manipulation scandal with a BMW affiliate. It has blown up again with new evidence that shows he himself was not being fully honest about how all those trades went down.

"All of Us are Dead" not only gets your adrenaline pumping from fear, you'll be in a heated state because of injustice, love and betrayal. The lines hit hard and you will be smarter after watching.

When Lee Jae-myung campaigned as the Bernie Sanders of Korea, perhaps he got the last name mixed up. Maybe he meant to say Bernie Madoff.

Which presidential candidate is going to eff it up? Koreans in their 20s-30s can't get on the property ladder while current homeowners are taxed into submitting to the "one house rule".

In a revolutionary concept, the candidates themselves were responsible for questioning each other. That means TONS AND TONS of shade thrown with no risk to the journalists.

When Lee Jae-myung’s wife wants her strawberries, steaks and hormone pills, you better charge it to the taxpayer and have it delivered to her front door. Pronto!

Yoon's main performance metric as a prosecutor was securing the appropriate punishment and treating his target like the enemy. A true president does not pit citizen against citizen. And with as much as he drinks, along with inevitably getting drunk on power once in the Blue House - a 'prosecutor' slides into 'dictator' mighty quickly.

Conservative presidential candidate Yoon Seok-yeol takes a cheap shot at Korea's foreign community by accusing them of stealing from the nation's medical system. In fact, if it weren't for immigrants, Korea's health care system would be going bankrupt.

In ancient Korea, you went off to stone your enemy to death after Lunar New Year festivities.

You can be reassured that Koreans know how to build state of the art high-rise buildings and are well versed in standard operating procedures. But what's not reassuring is how easily these protocols seem to be tossed aside when time and money are in short supply.

YouTuber and reality TV star Song Ji-a from "Single's Inferno" found herself in real-life purgatory when it was revealed that her designer-label lifestyle had a few fake pieces.
