Since its inception in 1953 to serve as "Korea's window
to the world," Herald Media Inc. has been a pioneer and
a leader in Korea's publishing and education industries.
In publishing, Herald Media offers three nationwide newspapers:
The Herald Business - a leading Korean-language business and
entertainment newspaper; The Korea Herald - Korea's largest
English-language newspaper; and The Junior Herald, the nation's
largest English-language newspaper for pre-teens. In addition,
the Company publishes a host of newsletters and magazines
for public and corporate clients, including The Gazette (Ministry
of Government Administration & Home Affairs), Korea Now
(Korea Overseas Information Service), Korea Focus (Korea Foundation),
and Gyeonggi (Government of Gyeonggi Province). The Company
is also a premier publisher of specialized business and educational
books.
In education, the Company operates a "lifetime language
education network" with language institutes, an English
immersion campus and education subsidiaries. In addition to
operating a Korea Herald Lanauage Institute in Seoul, Herald
Media has recently won the highly coveted management right
over the Seoul English Village, an immersion campus sponsored
by the City of Seoul. The Company also owns majority stakes
in Herald Academy Inc., a network of language education centers
for children, and Digital Herald Inc., an online and mobile
language education service provider.
Herald Media has a proud tradition and unmatched brand power
in publishing and education. Setting its sight on a wider
horizon, however, the company is undertaking a historical
transformation from Korea's premier media company to a leading
media powerhouse in Asia.
