Ask what Korea is talking about.

President Lee Jae Myung on Monday acknowledged concerns among farmers and fishermen over South Korea's potential entry into the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), vowing to prevent unfair damage to them. Yonhap reports Lee said he is aware of their worries and promised they won't suffer undue losses if Korea joins the trade bloc. However, the Korea Times reports Lee also said Korea is unlikely to join the CPTPP during his term, while stressing the need to lay the groundwork despite political obstacles. Korean media coverage focuses on these reassurances and the cautious timeline, with no significant public blog or café reaction documented in the supplied materials.
