Link to tweet

TK is in South Korea right now I think. He has been tweeting some on the conditions there, health restrictions, politics, etc. His web site The Blue House is free but requires registration. It's the best web site tailored to US readers on domestic South Korean politics. TK is a Korean American lawyer, and certified court translator.
