Yonhap is South Korea's main news agency, based in Seoul and founded in 1980, and this feed carries its English service. Its headlines centre on South Korea and the United States, followed by North Korea, China and Japan; politics leads the mix, above all diplomacy, with security next and economy smaller. Its stance reads as neutral and wire-style toward almost everything it covers, with a supportive tone toward South Korean achievements.
Yonhap reports in a neutral, wire-style voice. The United States and Donald Trump are covered with direct quotes and neutral verbs, and North Korea is handled through attributed statements, including those from its state media, without commentary. South Korea itself reads as neutral for most of the period and supportive most recently, when corporate wins, cultural successes and science milestones were foregrounded. The outlet has been measured over a limited period. The stance is measured from headlines toward countries and persons; it is not a rating of accuracy.

South Korea leads by a wide margin, followed by the United States, North Korea, China, Japan and Iran. Politics leads the topic mix, above all diplomacy, with security and military next and economy smaller, so the focus is the Korean peninsula and its main partners.
