About Company
The Korea JoongAng Daily is an English-language news organization that delivers in-depth, on-the-scene journalism informing readers around the world of the issues of the day in Korea.
Under the slogan “Your window to Korea,” the Korea JoongAng Daily strives to publish factual, timely, unbiased articles that make it the newspaper of record for English-speakers in Korea and globally.
The Korea JoongAng Daily is the English-language arm of JoongAng Group, a Korean media conglomerate spanning print, digital and broadcast, and benefits from the expertise of our colleagues at the JoongAng Ilbo and JoongAng Sunday, alongside the dedicated work of our own in-house reporters.
The Korea JoongAng Daily operates a bilingual newsroom with a team of native speaking English-language editors recruited from some of the top media organizations in the world.
Alongside the Korea JoongAng Daily website and print newspaper, the company also operates K-campus, a news-adjacent platform for international students already in Korea and those interested in studying in Korea.
In a rapidly changing media landscape, the Korea JoongAng Daily has also embraced the digitization of the industry with an increased focus on digital articles, social media storytelling and video content, while staying grounded and in-touch with our readers through a range of in-person events.
The Korea JoongAng Daily has been in association with the New York Times since 2000 and co-publishes the print editions of the two newspapers together. Subscribers in Korea receive the Korea JoongAng Daily, the International New York Times and get access to the New York Times website.
