Description
Korea. 1945. The editor of "The Seoul Times", Sang Kyu Pack, stated, "I congratulate you on the fact that you are coming on the ground floor when Korea is beginning a new lease of life". The statment was featured on the front (and only) page of the first issue published the day before the Allied Forces landed for the Japanese surrender. Both this paper and "The Korea Times", first issue of which appeared a day ahead of "The Seoul Times", hailed the Allied Forces.
