I’m not one to try to “problematize” the question that was initially asked.<BR>
<BR>
I like good sites. ;-)<BR>

<BR>
Great question - I'm also curious and hope that others will chime in with some URLs here. <BR>
<BR>
One blog I read regularly - written by a Korean in Korea, in English. Tech-focused, but with some interesting nuggets and social/cultural commentary weaved inthere.<BR>

Dear friends and colleagues,<BR>
<BR>
Now that the blogosphere is so active, especially in South Korea,<BR>
I wonder: Are there any Koreans who blog, in English, to<BR>
comment on and explain matters Korean to a global audience<BR>
which still remains overwhelmingly ignorant of Korea?<BR>
<BR>
Despite the volume and intensity of Koreans' own online debates,<BR>
the English-language blogs known to me are exclusively expatriate.<BR>
With all respect to the Marmot et al (www.rjkoehler.com <a href="http://www.rjkoehler.com"><http://www.rjkoehler.com></a> ), it would<BR>
be good - nay, it's essential - to have specifically Korean perspectives<BR>
as well; perhaps especially at this time of much misunderstanding.<BR>
<BR>
I hope this is just my own ignorance, and would welcome all<BR>
enlightenment, leads, tips, URLs, etc.<BR>
<BR>
Best wishes<BR>
Aidan<BR>
