Hoban's rise gives Delta more leverage in Hanjin KAL power battle

Hoban's rise gives Delta more leverage in Hanjin KAL power battle

Hoban Group’s rise as Hanjin KAL’s largest shareholder is giving Delta Air Lines greater leverage in the power struggle over Korean Air’s holding company as Chairman Cho Won-tae seeks to retain control. Hoban and its affiliates held a 20.69 percent stake in Hanjin KAL as of Wednesday, narrowly surpassing Cho and related parties at 20.58 percent. Cho has agreed to purchase another 325,000 shares for 37.05 billion won ($27 million), which could lift his side’s stake to 21.06 percent and restore its position as the largest shareholder. The increasingly close shareholding structure, however, has heightened the importance of major shareholders outside the two rival camps. Delta owns 14.9 percent of Hanjin KAL, while the state-run Korea Development Bank (KDB) holds 10.58 percent. Together with Cho’s stake, the three parties account for about 46 percent of Hanjin KAL. Excluding KDB from consideration for any future Korean Air deal due to its unique status as a public financial institution, Delta is emerging as an unexpected beneficiary of the renewed power struggle between Cho and Ho

Battery materials firms ramp up LFP capacity amid rising demand

Battery materials makers are accelerating their expansion into lithium iron phosphate (LFP) materials, as growing demand for energy storage systems (ESS) and non-Chinese supply chains in North America fuels competition to secure production capacity. LFP cathode supply commitments between domestic battery cell makers and materials suppliers are estimated to exceed 210,000 metric tons, according to industry estimates, prompting manufacturers — POSCO Future M, L&F and EcoPro BM — to step up investments. POSCO Future M is expanding its LFP capacity by converting part of its existing high-nickel cathode production lines at its Pohang plant. The company plans to increase annual capacity from about 20,000 tons to as much as 105,000 tons by the end of next year. It also plans to utilize up to 50,000 tons of capacity from CNP New Material Technology, a joint venture with CNGR and Fino. Following a 1.07 trillion won ($784.5 million) LFP cathode material supply deal with SK On in September, POSCO Future M signed another long-term supply contract worth about 6 trillion won with Samsung SDI last

Innospace to launch upgraded suborbital rocket in Brazil on Nov. 29

Korean space startup Innospace said Monday it plans to launch its upgraded multipurpose suborbital rocket, Sebit, in Brazil on Nov. 29, following an unsuccessful maiden test flight in August. The company has secured a 26-day launch window from Nov. 16 to Dec. 11 at the Alcantara Launch Center in Brazil, in coordination with state-owned aerospace company ALADA, the Brazilian Air Force and the Brazilian Space Agency. The final launch date and time will be determined based on weather conditions, launch readiness and other operational factors. Sebit is a multipurpose suborbital rocket designed to provide commercial testing and validation services. The single-stage rocket is powered by a 4-ton-class hybrid engine and measures 8.7 meters in length and 0.7 meters in diameter. The upcoming flight will mark Sebit's second test launch following a series of technical upgrades aimed at improving its propulsion and flight stability. The improvements include increasing engine thrust from the 3-ton class to the 4-ton class and redesigning the flight control algorithm. The upgrades follow an unsuccessful

Sogang University tops university category in service quality index for 13th straight year

Sogang University has ranked No. 1 in the university category for the 13th consecutive year in the Korean Standard-Service Quality Index (KS-SQI) survey conducted by the Korean Standards Association (KSA). The university said it earned an overall score of 86.5 points in this year's survey, maintaining its top position in the category since 2014. It received particularly high scores in accuracy, friendliness and social value. The second-half survey covered 238 organizations across 58 general and platform service industries. The 2026 KS-SQI certification ceremony was held on Wednesday at the Grand Ballroom of Signiel Seoul in Lotte World Tower in southern Seoul. It drew about 200 attendees, including representatives of award-winning organizations. The KS-SQI is a service quality measurement model jointly developed by the KSA and Seoul National University’s Institute of Management Research. Designed to reflect the characteristics of Korea’s service industry and consumers, the index serves as a comprehensive measure of service quality nationwide. Since 2000, the KSA has conducted the surve

Community Closet event in Itaewon offers free medical check-ups, clothing donations for foreign residents in need

Itaewon Global Village Center will offer free internal medicine check-ups for all foreign residents this Saturday as part of its Community Closet event. The check-ups will cover only seasonal illnesses such as fever, colds, coughs, the flu and related issues, and medicine will be provided free of charge in partnership with CCC AGAPE, a Korean medical service group. Marking its eighth edition, the Community Closet event, held twice a year in spring and autumn, is built around a simple but powerful principle: foreigners helping foreigners. Since 2023, the initiative has continued to grow, helping residents access essential items while encouraging a culture of sharing and reuse. Designed as a more dignified way to share, it is a free shopping event that allows foreign residents in need to receive donated clothes and household items in a welcoming environment. “For foreign residents navigating life in South Korea, finding a sense of belonging can be just as important as finding practical support," Katherine Ann Corteza, the center’s director, told The Korea Times.

Kookmin University biotechnology professor named to World's Top 2% Scientists list

Kwak Su-ryang, a professor in Kookmin University’s Department of Integrative Biotechnology, has been named to the 2026 World’s Top 2% Scientists list jointly released by Stanford University and Elsevier. The list recognizes the top 2 percent of researchers in their respective fields based on a comprehensive assessment of research performance, including citation metrics and publication output, using data from Elsevier’s Scopus database. Kwak’s research focuses on designing functional microorganisms and biomaterials using synthetic and computational biology, and evaluating their potential applications in precision medicine through multi-omics approaches. His notable achievements include a study published in Microbiome in 2020 that identified the effects of fecal microbiota transplantation on the gut microbiome and resistome, or the collection of antibiotic resistance genes in the human digestive system. Another study, published in Biomaterials in 2022, used metabolic engineering to identify and enhance the prebiotic properties of oligosaccharides in yeast cell walls. “I am gratefu

University of Seoul holds admissions information session in Vietnam

The University of Seoul held an admissions information session at the University of Languages and International Studies of Vietnam National University, Hanoi, Oct. 30, as part of its efforts to attract talented students from overseas.

President Lee's approval rating falls to 35.9%: poll

President Lee Jae Myung's approval rating fell to 35.9 percent last week likely due to an intense political standoff over legislation and stock market volatility, a pollster said Monday. Positive assessments of Lee's job performance dropped by 1 percentage point from the previous week in the poll conducted on 2,528 adults from last Monday to Friday, according to Realmeter. Negative assessments rose by 0.5 percentage point to 60.6 percent, while 3.4 percent of respondents said they were not sure. Realmeter attributed the lower approval rating to last week's standoff between the ruling and main opposition parties over a bill calling for a special counsel investigation into alleged fabricated indictments targeting the president and others. The bill passed the National Assembly on Friday, led by the ruling Democratic Party of Korea (DPK). The pollster also attributed the decline to last week's sharp fall in the KOSPI stock market index to below 5,000 points and other volatility in the financial sector. Meanwhile, support for the two largest parties came to 36.5 percent for the DPK and 39.7 per
