North Korea has selected two venues in South Korea for its art performance concerts to

celebrate the PyeongChang Winter Olympics.

The decision was reached a matter of days after a delegation, led by the country's most

famous pop star, inspected numerous different spots in the South.

On the sporting side,... the North says its women ice hockey players will arrive in the

South within the next 24 to 48 hours to join up with their South Korean counterparts as

they prepare to compete in the same, unified team.

Lee Seung-jae has the details.

After a close inspection of some of the possible concert venues for the North Korean art performance

group,... the North Korean delegation led by Hyon Song-wol, the head of the North's

Samjiyon Orchestra,... has selected two concert venues to celebrate the 2018 PyeongChang Winter

Olympics.

According to the South Korean unification ministry on Tuesday,... North Korea said its

art troupe hopes to perform at the Gangneung Arts Center in Gangneung, a coastal city located

about 260 kilometers east of Seoul, and one of the Olympic venues along with PyeongChang,...

on February 8th,... and the National Theater of Korea in Seoul on February 11th.

The North added that its delegation,... which includes a 140-member art performance group

of classical musicians, singers and dancers,... plans to cross the land border into South

Korea on February 6th for the concerts,... before returning home on February 12th.

North Korea has also confirmed that it will send a 15-member ice hockey team of twelve

players, a head coach and two support personnel to South Korea on Thursday.

The South had proposed that they arrive as soon as possible for training with their South

Korean counterparts ahead of competing as a unified team.

With the world's biggest international winter sporting event kicking off in PyeongChang

in around a fortnight,... hopes are high that the end result will be a more peaceful peninsula.

'Harmony' and 'Convergence' unveiled as themes of PyeongChang 2018 ceremonies - Duration: 2:56.

There are just over two weeks left until the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics kick off.

Busy putting the final touches on the global celebration of sport,... the organizing committee

has given everyone a sneak peak at what to expect during the opening and closing ceremonies.

Our Lee Ji-won reports from PyeongChang.

The concepts have been revealed for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2018 PyeongChang

Winter Olympics -- they are...

"Harmony"... and "Convergence."

On Monday, the organizing committee and the directors of the ceremonies held a press briefing

to share some of the details and the preparations they're making.

(Korean) "From the harmony of tradition and modern-day

culture... to that of nature and modern buildings,... harmony is a basic Korean value.

Through 'convergence,' Korea has been able to spread its culture worldwide and become

a leading IT nation.

With performances that illustrate these two values, we hope to convey the messages of

'peace' and 'passion.'"

They also unveiled the Olympic cauldron for the ceremonies.

The cauldron resembles a moon jar, a type of traditional Korean white porcelain, representing

Korean notions of beauty through empty space and simplicity,... as well as conveying the

message of 'participation' and 'harmony.'

While the specific layout of the ceremonies could not be shared, they did reveal the basic

storylines of the events.

The opening ceremony is based on the journey of five children searching for answers to

'peace,'... and features Korean legends and history.

The closing ceremony focuses on the challenges ahead with musical and dance performances.

To the question of whether North Korean art troupes will perform in the opening ceremony,

Director Song said that while it hasn't been confirmed, the International Olympic Committee

has mentioned an appearance by Pyongyang's Taekwondo performers before the opening ceremony

begins.

It's expected to be extremely cold on the days of the ceremonies, so the committee also

explained its plans to deal with that.

On top of constructing a wind screen around the Olympic Stadium, they have also built

40 patio heaters and 18 wind-proof shelters around the venue to prevent hypothermia.

The committee will be providing visitors with winter gear including hot packs, blankets

and raincoats,... but said it's vital that spectators dress warmly and come prepared.

In preparation for the more than 20-thousand spectators expected to come to the opening

ceremony, the committee has also prepared a range of transportation services,... one

of which is the 'GO PyeongChang' mobile application.

The application launches on Wednesday and will display all the different ways of getting

to the venues,... and help out with reservations.

With just over two weeks left until the Games kick off,... the organizing committee said

it'll do its best to warmly welcome the world and make PyeongChang 2018 an unforgettable

experience.

South Korean inspection team touring North Korean ski resort, nearby airport - Duration: 0:56.

Our top story this afternoon...

South Korea's twelve-member inspection team is spending their Wednesday looking around

North Korea's Masikryong Ski Resort and Kalma Airport on the second day of their three-day

field survey trip north of the border.

The team will inspect whether the slope is suitable for training Alpine and cross-country

skiers.

They'll also take a close look at the accommodation facilities at the resort.

The North had previously requested a two-day joint training of non-Olympic ski athletes.

The South's inspection team will also check the airport to see whether it can be used

to fly in the South Korean ski trainees.

Another inspection team from the North will come to the South on Thursday to look around

the Olympic stadiums and accommodations, the same day the South Korean team returns home.

Korea's ratio of average income between top & bottom 10% is second-highest among OECD countries - Duration: 2:19.

Widening income inequality has long been a problem in Korea,...

and recent OECD statistics show Korea's income gap between the top and bottom ten percent

was the second-highest out of ten OECD countries in 2016.

Park Ji-won has more.

OECD data shows Korea's income gap is the second highest in the OECD,... just behind

the U.S.

In 2016,... the ratio of the average income of the top 10-percent to the bottom 10-percent

in Korea stood at 4-point-five,... meaning that the top 10-percent of income earners

earn 4-point-five times more than the bottom 10-percent earn.

This figure was the second-highest,... among 10 OECD countries,... which have related data.

New Zealand has the lowest number of two-point-eight-six.

Korea was also ranked second in 2015,... when data for 21 OECD member countries was available.

The U.S. had the largest income gap, while three Northern European countries,... Finland,

Denmark and Norway had the lowest income inequality.

Korea's ratio of average income between the top and bottom 10-percent was around four

in 2000,... but the number soared to more than five in 2006,... and fallen slightly

since then.

Still,... Korea has been ranked at the number two spot,... since 2012.

(Korean)- "Korea's Gini Coefficient, which shows the

wealth distribution of a country,... is considered not that bad as of now, yet this continuing

income gap means that the nation's wealth distribution could worsen in the future.

It is also a sign that Korea's economy is failing to produce quality jobs."

However,... experts are not in agreement on whether Korean's minimum wage increase this

year will help improve the situation,... as the minimum wage hike could stiffen the labor

market,... leading to more unemployment.

The proportion of the workforce who earn less than two thirds of the median income in Korea

is also the second highest in 2016,... out of 10 OECD countries which have released related

data.

Fifteen Signs You're An INFP Personality Type - Duration: 6:00.

Fifteen Signs You're An INFP Personality Type

INFPs certainly seem like a rare breed, but there's tons of them out there who are true

idealists.

They are driven by their values and principles and they listen to many people but talk to

very few.

INFPs like Alicia Keys and William Shakespeare strongly demonstrate that their feelings are

best channeled into their creativity and their art.

Although they may seem mysterious and hard to understand, In this video, I'm going to

share with you 15 Signs You're An INFP Personality Type.

If you find this information is helpful to you, make sure to like this video and subscribe

to this channel so you won't miss any of our interesting updates in the future!

1.

Your flirting skills are unique, and let's face it, often ineffective.

Oh, you mean me completely ignoring you even though we've never actually met didn't catch

your attention?!

How weird.

2.

You cry when you're angry.

INFPs are not a fan of conflict.

Instead of yelling or flipping tables when they're angry,

your lip starts to quiver and when it comes to having to talk about something that's bothering

them, the tears are bound to flow.

3.

You have this happy personality and a sad soul.

Because they feel everything so deeply, their minds are always sorting through at least

ten emotions at once.

They're typically conflicted and their hearts are usually whirring at a fleeting pace.

Although they may be known as 'the quiet one who laughs a lot,' deep down they've got a

LOT going on.

4.

You're the dreamer, the healer, and the mediator.

They just want the world to be okay and for everyone to get along and be happy.

Is that too much to ask?!

5.

Your brain, full of scribbles, somehow maintains the ability to help everyone else.

Because of your incredibly empathetic, thoughtful, and considerate tendencies, the people close

to you will always have someone to lean on.

Even if you're going through your own troubles, you're ready to catch them when they fall

and talk them through whatever it is they're facing.

6.

When someone you're close with is the slightest bit off, you're off too.

Your defensive senses start to tingle when someone you're close with isn't acting like

themselves, and you're there to comfort them before they

can even spew the words, "I'm fine."

7.

You want everything you do to mean something.

You're either extraordinarily passionate about something or your heart's just not in it,

and let's face it, there's usually no in between.

Because INFPs feel everything so distinctly, they want everything they do on this earth

to make a difference.

8.

You often best get your thoughts and feelings out through a creative outlet.

Whether it's writing, painting, photography, or music, INFPs are typically a lot easier

to understand through their creative work than just by talking.

Sometimes they don't even understand what they're thinking themselves until they've

turned their thoughts into art.

9.

You're not the best at decision making.

You're not great at making decisions under pressure, or at all, really.

Unless you have a fiery passion for one option, you're better off just having someone else

decide for you.

10.

You're guarded, which makes getting to know you quite difficult.

It takes a LOT of perseverance, sensitivity, and time to get to know you, the INFP.

To those you're not comfortable around, you may come off as quiet and maybe even boring,

but to those who've faced the challenge of wiggling their way into your heart, they've

found it's made of solid gold.

11.

You need a lot of relaxation.

What you need: a good book to read, some headphones, some time in nature, lots of Netflix, an animal

pal, some time to think, some creativity, a good friend, and LOTS of solitude.

12.

Small talk is the enemy.

You Hate Small talk.

You want to hear a story that means something or talk for hours about something you're passionate

about.

You'd prefer to skip the, 'hi, how are you's', and get right to the, 'this is what ignites

the light in my eyes.'

13.

Your insecurity can quickly turn into turmoil.

Insecurity can definitely be your strong suit, the INFP.

You're not great at accepting criticism.

Or compliments, for that matter.

Though it feels like you need constant validation, you also hate being the center of attention,

so what do you do with that?

That one friend who hasn't talked to you all day is probably just busy,

but then again you probably did something horribly wrong and now they're never going

to talk to you again.

14.

You're driven by your happiness more than money.

Your idea of perfect misery would be working for a company that you don't believe in.

It's important to you to believe in the work that you're doing and believe that you are

making a difference.

An INFP's ideal job would involve working creatively and mostly on their own terms in

order to keep hold of their freedom of expression.

You care more about your values and happiness than putting your time into something that

you don't care about just for the money.

15.

You're a "what if" kind of person.

Your mind is constantly working at a mile a minute, thinking about the future and the

past and sometimes even the present.

You're always thinking about the "what ifs" with every decision you make and though you

always go with what your heart tells you, you can amaze the people you show your art

to with how much is actually going on in your brain versus how much of it you actually say

(which is typically nothing).

Volatile Ring of Fire causes earthquakes, volcanoes at opposite ends of Pacific - Duration: 2:04.

The volatile Ring of Fire, a line of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean, has sparked

earthquakes and volcanic eruptions on opposite ends of the geological disaster zone.

The spate of natural disasters all happened in the space of 24 hours.

Ro Aram reports.

Several events occurred on the Ring of Fire on Monday and Tuesday, including a massive

7-point-9 magnitude quake that hit the southern coast of Alaska.

It caused a tsunami warning to be issued across the west coast of the United States, Canada

and Mexico, but that warning has now been lifted.

But, officials are still advising residents to stay away from coastlines for the time

being.

On the other side of the Pacific Ocean, another 6-point-0 quake rocked Indonesia, with more

than a hundred buildings being damaged and several people getting injured.

The tremor occurred just off the coast of the western island of Java, but Indonesian

officials did not issue a tsunami warning.

Meanwhile, a volcano erupted near a mountain ski resort in Japan.

A soldier was reported to have been killed after being hit by an avalanche triggered

by the eruption, which took place on Mount Kusatsu-Shirane in Gunma Prefecture, located

186 kilometers north of Tokyo.

More than a dozen people have been injured, some critically.

In the Philippines, several days of increasingly intense activity at its most active volcano

has sparked authorities to raise the alert level to the second-highest level of four,

which means a "hazardous eruption is imminent."

Mount Mayon, located on the large island of Luzon, has been gushing lava fountains as

high as 700 meters into the air along with ash clouds.

More than 56-thousand villagers are now camped in emergency shelters.

While the series of cataclysmic activity came in rapid succession, scientists say that since

they occurred thousands of kilometers apart, there is nothing to suggest they are connected.

Six gov't offices lay out plans to boost innovative growth - Duration: 2:07.

Prime Minister Lee Nak-yon was briefed by six government ministries today... on their

plans to boost innovative growth this year to better prepare for the so-called 'Fourth

Industrial Revolution.'

Kim Ji-yeon reports.

Six government offices, including the Ministry of Strategy and Finance and the Ministry of

Trade, Industry and Energy... have outlined their action plans for the year to Prime Minister

Lee Nak-yon.

In a briefing held on Wednesday,... the ministries said they'll focus on creating an ecosystem

that encourages innovation and convergence so that the country can be better equipped

for the so-called 'Fourth Industrial Revolution.'

(Korean) "The term is referred to as a 'creative destruction'

that has the power to destroy the old industrial order to create a new one... and its effects

are to be wide-ranging to create ripple effects in areas including culture, education, environment,

economy and health.

Korea should be equipped with the right technologies and social security systems to deal with these

changes."

To do that, the ministries said they'll work on building an infrastructure that supports

super-connectivity as well as improving people's livelihoods through advances in science and

technology.

They will also aim at making achievements in key innovative sectors including those

related to renewable energy, electric and autonomous vehicles, drones and smart cities.

The trade ministry says it'll expand Korea's trade relations with ASEAN member countries

and India while increasing collaboration with traditional partners, namely the U.S. and

China, in areas concerning the services sector and high-tech.

Other steps include making strides to revitalize the fintech sector as well as the nation's

junior index KOSDAQ to boost startups.

(standup ed: steve) "The Office for Government Policy Coordination

says it plans to focus on deregulation to help foster new industries and technologies.

It'll submit revisions for the implementation of a regulatory sandbox to the National Assembly

by next month.

Cold wave warning issued in Seoul with record-breaking lows - Duration: 1:40.

A cold wave warning has been issued for most parts of South Korea, with temperatures dropping

below minus 15 degrees in certain regions.

This is -- by far -- the coldest it's gotten so far this winter.

Lee Jeong-yeon has the details.

Freezing temperatures hit South Korea this week.

On Wednesday morning, Seoul saw them drop down to minus 16 degrees Celsius, the lowest

it's been so far this winter.

Coupled with icy winds, the 'feels like' temperature is estimated to be minus 23 degrees.

It won't get much warmer in the afternoon, with highs expected to be around minus 10

degrees.

A cold wave warning has been issued in the capital as well as parts of Gyeonggi-do, Gangwon-do,

and Chungcheong-do Provinces.

This warning is issued when the morning lows dip at least 15 degrees from the previous

day to under 3 degrees, and when they're three degrees below the annual average.

It can also be issued when morning lows stay below minus 15 for two consecutive days.

(kor ) "The current temperatures are attributed to

the cold air from the north of Mongolia with temperatures down to minus 30.

This air is blowing into the Korean peninsula."

The expert adds that the cold air from the north travels down sporadically and Seoul

also saw similar temperatures in 2016.

(kor ) "It's not that there's a unique reason for

the cold this year.

It's a part of the cycle of cold wind coming down from the north."

Temperatures may continue to be low for the time being, at least until February, but experts

forecast that the current conditions may be the coldest it'll get this winter.

Trump signs safeguard measures against imported washers, solar cells - Duration: 3:00.

U.S. President Donald Trump has signed authorizations for "safeguard tariffs" on imports of washing

machines and solar panels,... sparking an outcry in South Korea and around the world.

Trump's decision is expected to deal a huge blow to South Korean manufacturers.

As a result,... it has prompted Seoul to consider filing a complaint with the World Trade Organization.

Park Soyun reports.

Driven by President Trump's "America First" trade policies, this marks the first time

in 16 years for the United States to issue such safeguard measures.

Trump on Tuesday signed into law tough new tariffs on imported washing machines and solar

panels, in a bid to create new jobs and protect U.S. manufacturers from foreign competition.

"Our action today helps to create jobs in America for Americans.

It will provide a strong incentive for LG and Samsung to follow through on their recent

promises to build manufacturing plants for washing machines right here in the United

States...

For both solar and washing machines these executive actions uphold the principle of

fair trade and demonstrate to the world that the United States will not be taken advantage

of anymore."

President Trump also told reporters after signing the proclamations that "there won't

be a trade war."

Under the measures,... a 20 percent tariff will be imposed on imports for the first one-point-two

million washers, and 50 percent on all subsequent imports, with tariffs lowering in the next

two years.

Korea's Samsung and LG Electronics, as well as Hanwha Qcells and Hyundai Heavy Industries

are expected to be hit hard by the measures.

Samsung and LG export a combined volume of two-and-a-half million washers to the U.S.

every year,... worth around one billion dollars.

Up in arms over the move,... the South Korean government is planning to file a complaint

with the World Trade Organization over what it calls a violation of WTO provisions.

(Korean) "We regret the latest U.S. safeguard measures

against our industry.

They're excessive and would clearly violate WTO rules...

We will actively respond to protectionist measures to protect our national interests

and resolve the industry's difficulties."

The South Korean trade minister, a former senior lawyer at the WTO, said Seoul can win

the case should they file a suit.

According to the WTO, the South Korean government has filed a petition against the U.S. on eleven

different occasions, and South Korea has won eight times.

However, even if South Korea wins, it will take at least two years for the U.S. to implement

the outcome.

In what looks to be a huge blow to the booming global industry, South Korea is vowing to

actively respond to the Trump administration's broader protectionist agenda, and cooperate

with other WTO members to defend its legitimate rights.

Movements of massive military parade seen near Pyongyang's Mirim Airfield: VOA - Duration: 2:35.

Just yesterday, North Korea designated February 8th as its official military forces foundation

day... and preparations for a massive military parade have been detected near Pyongyang's

Mirim Airfield.

But the CIA says the regime's aims go further than just showing off its weapons.

Oh Jung-hee reports.

Satellite imagery shows North Korea is preparing for a possible military parade.

According to Voice of America on Wednesday,... satellite images of a plaza north of Mirim

Airfield in Pyongyang,... which were taken on Tuesday morning,... show movements that

seem to be for a military parade.

Soldiers could be seen moving in lines across the plaza... and hundreds of vehicles are

parked at a corner.

Images of the same place taken two weeks ago also showed military forces moving in an organized

manner Around twenty units of infantry moved around

in formation.

Vehicles are thought to have started gathering at this area since late November,... and were

in their current formation in late December.

Pyongyang has previously held military parades at Mirim Airfield.

And as the North has designated February 8th as its official military forces foundation

day,... it's widely seen that such movements are for a large-scale military parade... on

February 8th.

Amid such speculations, the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency says...

North Korea will not stop at showing off its weapons... but go further... to eventually

develop its arsenal and the capability to fire multiple missiles.

(English) "The logical next step would be to develop

an arsenal of weapons, that is, one, not a show piece drive on a parade route on February

8th, but rather the capacity to deliver from multiple firings of these missiles simultaneously

and that increases the risk to America, and that's the very mission set that President

Trump has directed the government to figure out a way to make sure never occurs."

Speaking at the American Enterprise Institute,... the CIA director also said North Korea's missile

program is aimed at coercion, not just self-defense... and Kim Jong-un, a rational actor, aims to

ultimately reunify the two Koreas under his authority.

Pompeo added... the U.S. puts focus on finding a diplomatic solution to the matter,... but

the CIA is working to come up with a range of other options.
