South Korea men's soccer team falls to Indonesia, misses Paris Olympics
Quick Glance: South Korea's Olympic Qualification Hopes Dashed by Indonesia Defeat
  • South Korea's men's soccer team will miss out on the Olympic football tournament for the first time since 1984 after a loss to Indonesia in the Under-23 Asian Cup quarterfinals that went to a penalty shootout.

  • Indonesia secured a spot in the last four teams by winning the penalty shootout 11-10, with the game ending 2-2 after extra time.

  • Despite Jeong Sang-bin's equalizer with 14 minutes left, and being down to 10 players due to a red card for Lee Young-jun, Lee Kang-hee missed his shot in the shootout, allowing Pratama Arhan to score the winning goal.

  • Japan emerged victorious against host Qatar in a 4-2 extra-time win, maintaining their path towards an eighth consecutive Olympic appearance. Saudi Arabia will face Uzbekistan, and Iraq will meet Vietnam. The fourth-placed team will have a playoff against Guinea in May to secure a place in Paris.

Quick Glance: South Korean Woman Falls Victim to $50k Elon Musk Deepfake Scam
  • A South Korean woman was convinced to invest 70 million won ($50,770) after watching a fabricated video portraying someone who looked like Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, as reported locally on Tuesday.

  • Jeong Ji-sun, identified by the pseudonym at KBS, disclosed her experience as a victim of a romance scam on KBS's 'In-Depth 60 Minutes.' During the episode on April 19, Jeong narrated her initial interactions with the scammer posing as Musk.

  • Jeong's initial hesitations dissipated swiftly. The scammer forwarded his identification and a workplace photo to Jeong. Moreover, he discussed aspects such as his children and commuting to Tesla or SpaceX via helicopter. He further mentioned his sporadic outreach to fans.

  • The program highlighted the prevalent use of AI in these romance scams. The swindler engaged in a form of deception known as 'pig butchering,' as explained by the producer. This approach involves gradually enticing victims to increase their contributions to an apparently legitimate investment before the perpetrator vanishes.

Quick Glance: South Korean Court Deliberates Children's Climate Change Lawsuit Against Government
  • Environmental activist Choi Jia, alongside her younger sibling Choi Heewoo, participates in a press briefing preceding the initial hearing concerning petitions asserting that the government infringed upon their human rights due to an inadequate approach to climate change.

  • A public hearing regarding a lawsuit brought by twenty-four young environmental activists against the government commenced in one of South Korea's top judicial bodies on Tuesday. The plaintiffs argue that the government's negligence in addressing climate change left them unprotected.

  • Maintaining that South Korea's current climate strategies fall short in containing the temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, the plaintiffs claim this breaches the state's duty to safeguard fundamental rights. Scientists caution about the dire consequences of surpassing a 1.5C temperature increase.

  • During the legal proceedings, the government asserted its commitment to minimizing carbon emissions and upholding its citizens' basic rights. Nevertheless, activists expressed dissatisfaction with the government's response and urged for more concrete actions against climate change.
