Last update: 4 hours ago

North Korea Missile Tests: North Korea fired about 10 short-range ballistic missiles toward the East Sea hours after Trump said he plans to meet Kim Jong Un, prompting Seoul’s emergency security meeting and stepped-up readiness. Alliance Tensions: Pyongyang’s Kim Yo-jong mocked the drill cut as a “disaster” for Seoul, while Seoul and Washington said they reduced Ulchi Freedom Shield after Trump ordered a “substantially” smaller U.S. role. Nuclear Numbers Clash: South Korea’s defense minister put North Korea’s arsenal at 80–120 warheads, higher than Trump’s 57. China-South Korea Diplomacy: Chinese FM Wang Yi urged Seoul not to “take sides” between Beijing and Washington and called for closer communication. Seoul Social Policy: A survey found 77% of Seoul residents back reforming free elderly transit, with Seoul also rolling out dementia-friendly volunteer care and smart health support. Corporate/Markets: Samsung is set to announce a shareholder return plan, while SK Hynix unveiled a record buyback and stock-based bonus approach. Health & Safety Probe: Police are investigating a Seoul nursing hospital after a patient’s severed toe was found stored in a kitchen refrigerator for weeks.
