New Era Korea Daily

How this newsroom works

We do not hide how these articles are made.

Articles are written by AI

Articles on New Era Korea Daily are generated by an artificial intelligence system. They are not written by human reporters. Every article carries a label next to its byline stating how it was produced.

  • AI-written — generated and published automatically.
  • AI-written, human-checked — reviewed by a person before publication.
  • Human-written — written by a person.

Every figure comes from a document

Before an article is written, the system extracts a ledger of facts from the source document. The article may only use what is in that ledger. A separate checking pass compares the finished article back against it, and anything that cannot be traced to the record is rejected and rewritten.

This is also why we quote figures in Korean won without a dollar conversion: a converted number would not be traceable to the filing.

The English edition is not a translation

English articles are written from the same fact ledger as their Korean counterparts, not translated from the Korean text. The two versions are independent pieces of writing reporting the same record.

What automation does not do

Corrections are handled by a person. When a correction request arrives we respond within three days and publish a correction within seven, as required by Korean press law. See corrections.

Where we can be wrong

Automated reporting can misread a document, miss context a human would catch, or state something with more confidence than the record supports. We publish the source link on every article so you can check it yourself, and we correct errors when they are pointed out.
