Talk about the popularity of online courses in Korea.

Korea is the most wired country in the world, so it makes sense that online courses are a favorite among people who want to learn something. Traditional cram schools were quick to jump on the bandwagon. English courses are also immensely popular online. Office workers can also sign up for online classes on job training or work-related skills.

Talk about 주말농장 in English.

"주말농장" or "weekend farms" have really been catching on in Korea. These special farms are divvied up into smaller plots that can be rented to people. Urbanites flock to these farms on the weekend to plant everything from corn to lettuce to potatoes to peppers. The best part of (the) weekend farming is that you get to take home whatever you grow. It's also a great way for parents to spend more meaningful time with their children. -------------------------------------------------------------- catch on 인기를 얻다, 유행하다 be divvied up ~로 나누어지다, 배분되다. plot 작은땅, 밭 urbanite 도시거주자 flock 떼를 지어서 가다[오다] flee

Talk about the success of Korean pro-golfers.

Korean golfers have been making their mark on the PGA and LPGA Tour. Yang Yong-eun earned a place for himself in golf history. He became the first Asian male to clinch a victory in a major tournament. Hall of Famer Pak Se-ri was a pioneer that opened doors for other Korean female golfers on the LPGA Tour.

[EDITORIAL] Crimes on children

National Assembly inspection of the Ministry of Health and Welfare on Monday turned into a session of condemnation of sexual crimes against children, with infuriated representatives deploring society's weaknesses in protecting the many potential victims from heinous predators. A recent KBS report on the relatively light sentencing of a rapist who left permanent physical damage to an 8-year-old girl touched off the furor. At least two members of the House Health-Welfare-Families Committee suggested "chemical castration" of convicts in child rape cases. Others stressed the need to make public not only the names but the photos of convicted sexual molesters of children and raise the minimum punishment for such criminals. President Lee Myung-bak joined in the widespread social debate. He told a meeting with senior secretaries that sexual abusers of children should be "separated from society as far as possible" because they have a tendency to repeat their crimes. ...
