Publisher's Review
[Volume 236: Latest Current Affairs and Common Sense] is a book that selects and organizes only the most important news that must be known among the latest current affairs that occurred domestically and internationally over the approximately two months from August to October 2025. It is designed to be helpful to all readers who want to understand current social issues, as well as students and job seekers who are struggling to prioritize their studies amidst the overflowing information.


We've compiled a concise selection of key figures and terms that have been hot topics in the news over the past two months, and we've included a variety of sections to help you more easily navigate your learning path, including common sense questions (Gwangmyeong City Corporation) for public institution and media exams, current affairs practice tests, and Korean history proficiency tests.
In addition, we have created a corner that can be used as a refresher while studying for the exam, such as interesting news that can be read lightly (Buzz in the News) and common sense that you have always been curious about (Common Sense Paparazzi).


'Current Affairs Close-Up', which takes an in-depth look at the most talked-about articles of the period, includes information on the '2025 Nobel Prize', where the winners were announced from October 6th to 13th.
And the special feature includes a compilation of key issues and related terms from major corporations this year, following their recent announcements of plans to expand youth hiring, and includes content that will be helpful for job seekers preparing for employment.
