Ask what Korea is talking about.

President Lee Jae Myung is set to deliver a policy address to the National Assembly on Tuesday, November 2, according to Yonhap. The speech will explain the government's plan for a record budget of 820.9 trillion won (about 94.4 trillion yen) for next year and call for parliamentary cooperation to ensure its smooth passage. The address comes as Lee's approval rating has slipped to 39 percent, down from a brief rebound, per a Gallup Korea poll conducted October 27-29. Korean media coverage focuses on the budget's scale and the need for bipartisan support, with the president's recent remarks on migrant workers and affirmative action drawing controversy in an op-ed.
