The most important media outlet in the world for Freedom Speakers International: The Korea Times. They occasionally write stories about our work. I have a monthly column and a regular blog there.
Here's my blog at the Korea Times, "Voices from the North."

And
my monthly column.

Instead
of the Korea Times stumbling across us from time to time, I get regular reminders from
editors reminding me to send in my column and blog.
I know that many of the people following FSI are clicking around the internet and following many organizations and people.
I have heard that my position at the paper is safe, that I have some loyal readers. It is good to know that we have regular readers who look for FSI related articles, not just stumbling across them. It is unusual in this world for a media outlet to open its pages to an organization and columnist who are not well-known, most would regard it as advertising.
Instead, no matter how busy I am with running FSI along with co-founder Eunkoo Lee, I can expect reminders from the Korea Times about the deadline for my next column and a reminder if I haven't sent a blog post recently.
The
photo is from the Korea Times bloggers' night, in 2018. When it was time to
take a group photo, I confirmed with an editor that it would be okay for me to
hold a TNKR brochure. They said it was fine, so of course I sat in the front
row so it could be seen.
Below are more photos from that night in 2018 (yes, there have been other nights, this one happened to pop up in my FB feed).
