About Us
We are an independent and non-partisan online platform founded in Seoul, Republic of Korea, in October 2022. We specialize in publishing analysis and research reports written by academics and analysts with the aim of interpreting current events around the globe. Our articles cover a broad range of topics within international relations, featuring politics, defence and security, diplomacy, energy and economics. Our native-speaker team members diligently translate the original articles into seven languages, ensuring a natural-sounding text that is comprehensible and easy to read.
Founder’s Message
At World & New World Journal (WNWJ), we believe that expert insights are essential for navigating the complexities of today’s global landscape. That’s why we are dedicated to providing high-quality, in-depth analysis and research to help our readers deepen their understanding of critical global issues.
Our unique approach brings together scholarly articles and in-depth analysis written by experts from around the world, making us a blend of an academic journal and a think-tank. This allows our readers to access both new research findings and theoretical discussions, as well as practical, argumentative insights.
As WNWJ continues to grow, we remain committed to our core mission: ensuring that everyone, regardless of language or background, can freely access expert-driven insights.
Sincerely,
Myungho Hyun
