Ask what Korea is talking about.

Personal information of President Lee Jae Myung, first lady Kim Hea Kyung, and 166 others—168 people in total—was exposed online, Yonhap and KBS report. The leak, discovered on a paid security-related website in June, included a passenger list for "Air Force One" with Korean and English names, affiliations, job titles, birth dates, and passport numbers of the president, his wife, and officials such as then-policy chief Kim Yong Beom and national security adviser Wi Sung Lac. The data remained exposed for about five months, KBS World reports. Police have launched a preliminary inquiry (internal investigation) into the case, Yonhap says, while the presidential office said it had already taken measures in response. Korean media coverage focuses on the scale and sensitivity of the breach, with outlets like Korea Economic Daily highlighting that even the president's passport number was compromised.
