History

The newspaper was originally established as Hankyoreh Shinmun ({{korean|hangul=한겨레신문|labels=no}}) on 15 May 1988 by ex-journalists from The Dong-a Ilbo and The Chosun Ilbo. At the time, government censors were in every newsroom, newspaper content was virtually dictated by the Ministry of Culture and Information, and newspapers had nearly the same articles on every page.WEB,www.nytimes.com/1989/03/13/world/korea-s-road-to-democracy-paved-with-contrary-legacy.html?scp=17&sq=hankyoreh&st=cse&pagewanted=2, Korea’s Road to Democracy Paved With Contrary Legacy, The New York Times, 1989-03-13, 2011-11-20, The Hankyoreh was intended to provide an independent, left-leaning and liberal-nationalist alternative to mainstream newspapers regarded as blindly pro-business and opposed to national reunification. To underscore its patriotism and its break with tradition, The Hankyoreh became the first daily to completely reject the use of hanja and use only hangul; it continues to make only limited use of the Latin alphabet and limits the use of loanwords. It was also the first newspaper in Korea to be printed horizontally instead of vertically.

Stances on political issues

Between nationalism and internationalism

The Hankyoreh is the most critical of Japan among major South Korean media outlets. On October 7, 2016, it published article arguing that South Korea’s anti-Japanese and Japan’s anti-Korean sentiments were completely different, and that it was wrong to conflate the two. In particular, the newspaper argues that Korea’s anti-Japan does not lead to hate crimes against the Japanese, and is a legitimate emotion of the country.WEB, 일본의 혐한, 한국의 반일,www.hani.co.kr/arti/international/japan/764637.html, The Hankyoreh, 2016-10-07, 2022-01-22, However, the newspaper has criticized xenophobia against the Japanese living in Korea {{Clarify span|rather than|date=June 2023}} conservative media.WEB, 한일 공존의 새싹이 자란다, Sprouts of coexistence between the Koreans and the Japanese are growing [in South Korea],legacy.h21.hani.co.kr/section-021003000/2006/08/021003000200608170623021.html, The Hankyoreh, 2006-08-17, 2022-01-22, The Hankyoreh is known as the most pro-European media in South Korea.

In terms of national affairs, Cheongwadae, Office of the President, studies on the editorial policies of South Korean newspapers have found that Hankyoreh Shinmun, which published its first issue early in the Roh Tae-woo administration, has shown little fluctuation from administration to administration.WEB,16cwd.pa.go.kr/cwd/en/archive/archive_view.php?meta_id=en_press_release&id=923b7455acffde2d3ca835fe, Cheongwadae, Office of the President, Republic of Korea, 16cwd.pa.go.kr, 2007-02-26, 2011-11-20, WEB,english.hani.co.kr/arti/english_edition/e_entertainment/335460.html, New Year in North Korea, ko, English.hani.co.kr, 2011-11-20, WEB,english.hani.co.kr/arti/english_edition/e_editorial/335469.html, Kim Jong-il’s growing interest in progress at the six-party talks, ko, English.hani.co.kr, 2011-11-20, The Hankyoreh also runs a “Hankyoreh Foundation for Reunification and Culture” as a forum for advocacy of peace and reunification on the Korean peninsula.WEB,www.koreahana.net/, Hankyoreh Foundation for Reunification and Culture, Koreahana.net, 2011-11-20, WEB,seoul.usembassy.gov/113_112506.htm, 2023-05-08, July 19, 2011,seoul.usembassy.gov/113_112506.htm," title="web.archive.org/web/20110719123158seoul.usembassy.gov/113_112506.htm,">web.archive.org/web/20110719123158seoul.usembassy.gov/113_112506.htm, Archived, {{dead link|date=May 2016|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}} Notwithstanding the newspaper’s support for democracy, human rights, and free speech in South Korea, in June 2009, The Hankyoreh described the arrest and imprisonment of two US journalists in North Korea, condemned by Reporters Without Borders, as a sham trial,WEB,www.rsf.org/American-reporters-get-very-severe.html, American reporters get “very severe” 12-year sentences designed to scare all foreign journalists, Rsf.org,www.rsf.org/American-reporters-get-very-severe.html," title="web.archive.org/web/20090611211518www.rsf.org/American-reporters-get-very-severe.html,">web.archive.org/web/20090611211518www.rsf.org/American-reporters-get-very-severe.html, June 11, 2009, dead, April 23, 2018, mdy-all, as a “not entirely negative signal” of North Korea’s openness to communicate.WEB,english.hani.co.kr/arti/english_edition/e_northkorea/359391.html, N.

Core shareholders include students, professors, lawyers, writers, liberals and urban industrial workers.

Readership of the newspaper is evenly distributed between provinces and the major metropolitan areas, of which 63.2% were in their twenties and thirties, and 44.5% were college graduates. The Hankyoreh{{’s}} readership is mostly of low to middle class income.

Criticism of mainstream conservatism

After three decades in print, Its circulation of about 600,000 readers, puts it at one third the size of any of the three major dailies (The Chosun Ilbo, JoongAng Ilbo, and The Dong-a Ilbo), though still ahead of specialist economic dailies. It is the fourth largest newspaper in Korea.
