This book was compiled for Chinese learners with intermediate or higher Korean language skills who wish to develop their newspaper reading skills. It has selected representative articles based on various aspects such as practicality, expertise, universality, internationalization, Sino-Korean relations, and newspaper value.
And, according to the content, it is divided into five major categories: politics, economics and finance, society, science, culture, health and sports, and is written to help learners understand the text and grammatical structure by providing examples of idiomatic vocabulary and grammatical structures of newspaper terms.

As Chuseok approaches, the prices of some items are soaring.
This is especially true for seasonal foods such as fruits and seafood.
This is because Chuseok is coming a little earlier than usual this year, leading to a shortage of supply.


The price increase is particularly severe for fruit.
It has increased by an average of 30-40% compared to last year.
Although some produce is being grown in greenhouses, it is not enough to meet the Chuseok demand.
The most commonly used are apples and pears.
The price increase is expected to increase further starting next weekend when purchasing of wedding supplies begins in earnest.

Among fruits, the price of apples has soared.
The best gift items cost 6,800-7,700 won each.
Unlike other fruits, it is not subjected to a process of ripening (artificial ripening using chemicals or machines), so its price has increased.

Although Hongro and Hongwol are produced, the original cultivation area is small.
Aori has poor storage properties, and the busa is not fully shipped until October.

Although products containing growth promoters are being released, the color and size are not as good as in previous years.
The supply is also insufficient.
This year's fruits are small and not very colorful due to the late summer heat and floods.
