The Jeguk Sinmun ("Imperial Post"; 1898-1910) was a Seoul-based Korean language newspaper founded in August 8, 1898 by Yi Jong-myeon(李鍾冕)[1] It was published using the purely vernacular Hangeul script and attracted a largely lower or middle class and female readership.[1] It was less political than the other papers of the period, concentrating instead on social issues. One of its early reporters was the young Syngman Rhee.[1]
