Dear respected reader

Dear respected reader,

We thank you for your love of Magazine N for the past five years. When everyone else discouraged us from the start, claiming that paper magazines and news were on the decline, we boldly took initiative to create Magazine N. It was an arduous process, but we learned that results are fruitful only after hardships.

Most of all, we realized that magazines are not filled automatically, but that we have to constantly strive to fill them. For this reason, we appreciated all the events we have faced in the process, both good and bad. I send special thanks especially to my colleagues in and out of the Magazine N for not being satisfied with the status quo and following me to achieve greater results.

To our readers, thank you so much for your unconditional love and support. We are trying our best not to forget the promise that we have made when we first published Magazine N, even when we are experiencing hardship.

“Instead of boasting about doing well, we will devote our time to think about ways to do even better.”

We will always remember the support given by our readers, advertisers, writers, informers, and many others. If you need our support, we will immediately respond to it without any hesitation.

Respected reader, Magazine N wants to resemble the modesty of Gumgangsong pine tree. The tree grows straight toward the sky and does not boast of itself, but grows together with ordinary pine trees and bamboo trees in the surrounding area.

This issue is a combination of the May and June issue. I apologize for the inconvenience to the reader for the delay. I will not ask for your understanding with the excuse that it is the Magazine N’s 5th anniversary issue.

However, we will make every effort to fulfill our promise that we will produce an issue every month. See you in the July issue.

Thank you,

Lee Sang Ki, publisher of The AsiaN
