TWICE are celebrating their 10-year anniversary this year but that's not the only thing revolving around the number 10 that's worth celebrating, as the girl group has made history as the first K-pop girl group ever to score 10 entries on the U.S. Billboard 200's main albums chart. Billboard’s official website announced on Tuesday local time that TWICE’s 10th-anniversary special album “TEN: The Story Goes On”, released on October 10, debuted at No. 11 on the Billboard 200 chart. That made TWICE the first K-pop girl group in history to place ten albums on the Billboard 200, further solidifying their position as one of the world’s leading music acts. Also in celebration of their 10th debut anniversary, TWICE is currently embarking on their biggest world tour yet, "THIS IS FOR", which includes 73 concerts across 43 regions worldwide. The group is expected to carry their global momentum well into 2026, all fuelled by the support of ONCE. It has been a great year for TWICE! Next up let's talk K-animation. The Korean animated film “Your Letter” has reached an impressive achievement, securing pre-sales and overseas releases in 166 countries worldwide. The film follows Sori , a transfer student who stumbles upon a mysterious letter hidden in a desk drawer and sets out on a heartfelt journey to uncover the other letters hinted within it. Having already appeared at renowned global festivals such as the Ottawa International Animation Festival and the International Animated Film Festival, “Your Letter” is now drawing even greater international attention as one of the leading titles representing K-animation. Since premiering in Korea on October 1, the film has received glowing reviews and word-of-mouth support. I think I have to put this on my "to-watch" list. Lastly, let's finish with another Korean film. According to data from the Korean Film Council, the upcoming comedy film “The First Ride” claimed the top spot in both overall and Korean movie reservation rankings on October 20, surpassing the much anticipated Japanese animated dark fantasy action film “Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc.” “The First Ride”, premiering on October 29, follows five friends who share 24 years of memories as they embark on their very first overseas adventure together. A definite must-watch for “handsome guy lovers,” the film boasts a dazzling cast that includes Kang Ha-neul , Kim Young-kwang , the ever-charming Cha Eun-woo , Kang Young-seok , and the radiant and beautiful Han Sunhwa . There's a lot of buzz ahead of its release. Many are eager to see whether “The First Ride” can break the recent box office dominance of Japanese animated films and reaffirm the power of Korean cinema. Thanks for the news Walter.

That’s right, Soa. Now, do you guys remember when I introduced Design Miami Seoul to our viewers not too long ago? Of course. It was an "illuminating" coverage, as far as I remember. Yeyoung, you really seem to be into arts and design though. So what's the event about you visited this time? Well, this event is homegrown. It’s Seoul’s very own celebration of creativity. There was so much to see, learn, and experience. But beyond all the fun, it really makes you realize how design touches every part of our daily lives. Let’s take a look together. At one of Seoul's most iconic landmarks, creativity fills every corner. From experimental furniture to pop-up markets and AI-themed conferences, Seoul Design Week 2025 at Dongdaemun Design Plaza is where the city’s design spirit comes alive. The festival brings together exhibitions, talks, and visitor-driven programs under the theme “Design, Designer, Design Life.” The week-long event, held until October 26, explores how design can be found in every aspect of life. "Seoul is known as one of the world’s trendiest cities. We are establishing ourselves as category creators, pioneers who set new trends. Just as K-pop became its own global genre, I hope Seoul’s design will emerge as a genre of its own." That vision is reflected across the week’s programs, where design is not only displayed but lived. “I’m standing in front of Seating Seoul, where a hundred designers have reimagined the simple chair. The exhibition suggests that chairs can reflect our bodies, our lifestyles, and even our society.” At the visitor favorite Design Fair, Seoul Design Week features popular lifestyle brands like Finca and Sixty Seconds, while the Design Conference gathers creators and scholars to discuss AI, sustainability, and the future of aesthetics. For emerging designers, the event also offers a chance to collaborate with major companies, giving those with limited funding the opportunity to bring their creative ideas to life. That’s what the Young Designers Special Exhibition is all about. The design fair is also a space for introspection. "I think this fair isn’t just about showing our products to other people. It’s about reflecting on how we see and interpret the world as designers." Beyond form and function, Seoul Design Week places people at the center of creativity. "This year’s Seoul Design Week focuses on design embedded in daily life, spotlighting both the creators and the consumers who appreciate with a designer’s mindset." From chairs that tell human stories to conferences that envision the future of creativity, Seoul Design Week 2025 shows that design is a living language of how Koreans express their culture to the world. That was really interesting and colorful Ye-young. I saw a lot of everyday objects in the exhibition. Yes, I noticed the same! Just like this year’s slogan, "Design, Designer, Design Life", many of the displays featured everyday items like Tupperware, cutlery, and towels. That’s interesting, because towels aren’t exactly something people usually think much about. Right. But according to the annual trend report Trend Korea 2025, towel sales have actually been on the rise. The report attributes this to the trend keyword , short for , meaning “a very ordinary day.” It reflects how people today seek small moments of joy and creativity in their daily routines, through items like towels with bright colors, playful patterns, and fun designs. That’s fascinating. So what kind of vision for K-design do you think the event was trying to show? That’s a great question. Let’s listen to what the event official I spoke with had to say. "Behind the global rise of K-culture are designers with exceptional aesthetic insight, and consumers with a refined sense of design. Through this year’s Seoul Design Week, we hope to spotlight the Korean designers who have been driving K-design from behind the scenes, and to show that their taste is becoming the world’s taste." As she suggests, many of us tend to overlook just how deeply design is embedded in our everyday lives. If we take a closer look at the things around us, even something as simple as a chair, we can see the thought, experience, and creativity that the designer has built into it. Thank you for that insightful report. Yes, thank you, Ye-young. Thank you for having me. #SeoulDesignWeek #DDP #DesignLife #서울디자인위크 #동대문디자인플라자 #일상속디자인 #arirangnews 📣 Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/arirangtvnews 📣 Twitter : https://twitter.com/arirangtvnews 📣 Homepage : https://arirang.com/ 2025-10-22, 14:00 (KST) yt:video:4R6l6_lXZtE 4R6l6_lXZtE UCzznO4xSV8BKnUBPyswtCUw Arirang News https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzznO4xSV8BKnUBPyswtCUw 2025-10-22T05:25:25+00:00 2025-10-22T05:31:35+00:00 [LIVE] The Kulture Wave (2025-10-22) ▪ [Features reporter] Seoul Design Week 2025: Reading the city’s taste through design ▪ [K-Enter] TWICE becomes the first K-pop girl group to enter Billboard 200 a total of ten times ▪ K-wave AI News ▪ [K-wave] Annual visitors to Nat'l Museum of Korea surpasses 5 mil. for first time ▪ [K-wave] Yongcheondonggul Cave re-opened to media after 20 years ▪ [Short-form] Temple stay yt:video:fEV7YkThvQE fEV7YkThvQE UCzznO4xSV8BKnUBPyswtCUw Arirang News https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzznO4xSV8BKnUBPyswtCUw 2025-10-22T04:11:08+00:00 2025-10-22T05:26:58+00:00 [FULL] 12:00 ARIRANG NEWS (2025-10-22) ▪ N.

Plans for a Trump–Putin summit in Budapest have been shelved, as both Washington and Moscow acknowledged there are no plans for a meeting in the immediate future. The delay follows stalled diplomacy to end the war in Ukraine, with neither side showing signs of compromise. The White House confirmed the pause after a call on Monday between U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov resulted in no progress. Lavrov said Russia’s position has remained unchanged since the August Alaska summit, when Trump and Putin last met in person. President Donald Trump later told reporters on Tuesday he “didn’t want a wasted meeting,” saying talks would resume only when there is “something real to discuss.” Vladimir Putin had reportedly proposed trading parts of occupied Kherson and Zaporizhzhia for control of Donetsk, a plan Trump rejected, urging both armies to “stop fighting and go home.” In Israel on Tuesday, U.S. Vice President JD Vance downplayed fears that the Israel-Hamas ceasefire could collapse, saying recent progress gives him “great optimism the ceasefire is going to hold.”Speaking at a joint news conference with Trump envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, Vance said he will not set deadlines for Hamas’s disarmament or the return of the hostage remains, stressing that both “will take a little time.” He warned that “very bad things” could happen if Hamas fails to comply, but said pressure must be balanced with patience. U.S. officials privately fear the truce remains vulnerable after weekend clashes that killed two Israeli soldiers and dozens of Palestinians. Vance’s trip aims to keep Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu committed to the U.S.-brokered deal. Witkoff told Israeli counterparts their response to Hamas must stay proportional as the next 30 days will determine whether the peace plan’s second phase can begin. In Paris on Tuesday morning, former president Nicolas Sarkozy became the first ex-leader of France since World War II to go to jail. He began a five-year sentence for conspiring to finance his 2007 campaign with money from late Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. The 70-year-old arrived at La Santé prison, greeted by supporters shouting his name as police cordoned off the streets. He will be held in an isolation wing for his own safety, in a small cell with a bed, desk, shower, and TV, and allowed one hour of daily exercise. The former president maintains his innocence, writing on social media that “truth will prevail,” and his lawyer has filed an immediate appeal for release. President Emmanuel Macron called his predecessor’s detention “a human matter,” while France’s justice minister vowed to ensure Sarkozy’s safety in jail. In London on Tuesday, a brain surgery patient played the clarinet during her four-hour brain surgery. 65-year-old Denise Bacon, who suffers from Parkinson's disease, reportedly showed immediate improvement in her finger movement. The surgery at King's College Hospital involved deep brain stimulation using implanted electrodes to ease symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The patient stayed awake under local anaesthetic while the neurosurgeon adjusted electrical currents to the affected areas of her brain. Doctors said her hand control improved instantly, allowing her to play the clarinet smoothly on the operating table--something she hasn't done for five years.

Korea fires SRBMs ahead of APEC in S. Korea next week 북, 5개월여만에 탄도미사일 발사 트럼프 방한 앞두고 도발 Hello and thanks for joining us on Arirang News. North Korea fired short-range ballistic missiles earlier on Wednesday morning, ahead of the APEC leaders' meeting in Gyeongju, where dozens of world leaders will be visiting South Korea next week. For more, our Kim Do-yeon is on the line with us. Do-yeon, what's the latest? According to the Joint Chiefs of Staff North Korea fired short-range ballistic missiles at around 8:10 AM, the first launch of its kind in more than five months. Authorities said the missiles were launched from the regime's Hwanghaebuk-do Province, which is just south of Pyongyang, and that the missiles seemed to have traveled around 350 kilometers northeast. According to local reports, the missiles fell on land instead of the waters off the coast. This marks North Korea’s first ballistic missile provocation since President Lee Jae Myung took office in early June. The authorities also shared intelligence on the launch with the U.S. and Japan, saying Seoul's military is maintaining a full readiness posture. South Korea's top office also said the National Security Council held an emergency military readiness review to analyze the impact of the launch on national security. The timing is crucial as well with a big event coming next week. That's right. The latest provocation comes ahead of the APEC meeting next week, with U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping among leaders set to visit South Korea. And there is potential for a meeting between the leaders of the U.S. and China during the event. North Korea could be attempting to garner attention ahead of that meeting. The launch comes 12 days after a military parade was held in Pyongyang to mark the 80th anniversary of the Workers' Party where it showed off its arsenal, including the latest ICBM something analysts say could be tested in the near future. We're expecting more details on the launch, so I'll be back with more in a later newscast. #NorthKorea #BallisticMissile #APEC2025 #북한도발 #단거리미사일 #트럼프방한 #arirangnews 📣 Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/arirangtvnews 📣 Twitter : https://twitter.com/arirangtvnews 📣 Homepage : https://arirang.com/ 2025-10-22, 12:00 (KST) yt:video:2inpPTQqKrE 2inpPTQqKrE UCzznO4xSV8BKnUBPyswtCUw Arirang News https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzznO4xSV8BKnUBPyswtCUw 2025-10-22T03:25:16+00:00 2025-10-22T03:34:52+00:00 [LIVE] 12:00 ARIRANG NEWS (2025-10-22) ▪ N.

Korean officials heading back to U.S. for tariff negotiations on Wed. 김용범•김정관 긴급 재방미 관세협상 막판 조율 South Korean officials are heading back to Washington to fine-tune the details of the Korea-U.S. tariff negotiations. Our Kim Bo-kyoung tells us more. Presidential Chief of Staff for Policy Kim Yong-beom and Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan depart for Washington, D.C. on Wednesday once again, for tariff negotiations with the U.S. It has only been a few days since the two officials returned from earlier trips to D.C., during which they talked to U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to finalize the details of the 350-billion dollar investment package. Though there are still one or two remaining issues, the presidential chief of staff for policy had said Seoul had made "substantive progress" in those talks. "The chances of reaching an agreement have grown compared to previous U.S. visit, especially with the upcoming APEC Leaders' meeting.” The key issue of the tariff negotiations has been over South Korea's investment package in the U.S. to reduce tariffs on key products such as automobiles. Washington has been demanding a full cash investment or an up-front equity contribution, which Seoul says is unrealistic given the country's foreign exchange constraints. But as U.S. now appears to have stepped back from this demand, the negotiations recently gained momentum. "Is the U.S. still asking for a full cash investment?” “Not really. If they were, we wouldn’t be able to solve the problem. The U.S. has accepted much of our view on that issue.” With the two officials heading back to the U.S. to finalize the details, expectations are growing that the two countries could reach a dramatic agreement during the potential summit between the two leaders as President Trump is to visit Korea soon for the APEC Leaders' meeting. Meanwhile, the impact of U.S. tariffs is starting to show in Korea Customs Service data, with exports to the U.S. for the first 20 days of October plunging 24-point-7 percent compared to the previous year. Even considering there were two less working days during this period, exports to the U.S. were still down more than ten percent. Total exports to all countries from October 1st to 20th totaled 30-point-one-five billion dollars, down seven-point-eight percent from the same period last year, largely due to that fall in exports to the U.S. Kim Bo-kyoung, Arirang News. #TariffNegotiation #USKoreaTrade #WashingtonTalks #관세협상 #대미무역 #3500억달러 #arirangnews 📣 Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/arirangtvnews 📣 Twitter : https://twitter.com/arirangtvnews 📣 Homepage : https://arirang.com/ 2025-10-22, 10:00 (KST) yt:video:-b-L3k_9SFM -b-L3k_9SFM UCzznO4xSV8BKnUBPyswtCUw Arirang News https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzznO4xSV8BKnUBPyswtCUw 2025-10-22T02:00:21+00:00 2025-10-22T03:53:10+00:00 [On-point] How South Korea is working to finalize trade deal with U.S. ahead of APEC 대미 협상팀 긴급 방미 APEC 앞두고 막판 관세협상 Right after returning home, South Korea's key negotiators are heading to Washington again to wrap up what could be the final phase of trade negotiations as the country prepares for next week's APEC meeting in Gyeongju. For more, we're joined by Oh Joon-seok, Dean at the College of Economic and Business at Sookmyung Women’s University. Professor Oh, thanks for joining us this morning. 1. Seoul and Washington have yet to agree on the details of the 350 billion dollar investment deal. What key negotiating cards does South Korea still have when it comes to tariff talks? 2. Trump is expected to make a state visit to South Korea on October 29th. Can we expect a major breakthrough in Seoul-Washington trade talks? 3. This week, South Korean business leaders were also seen playing golf with U.S. President Donald Trump. So it seems all hands are on deck to reach a trade agreement. What might have been discussed there? 4. Globally, economic uncertainties still remain over trade tensions between Washington and Beijing.
