MONTSAME News Agency Begins Distributing News in Korean
Society
Ulaanbaatar, December 9, 2025 /MONTSAME/. The Mongolian National News Agency MONTSAME began distributing news in Korean starting December 8, 2025.
A Memorandum of Understanding on establishing a Korean-language
editorial desk at MONTSAME Agency was signed on November 28, 2025, by Director
General of MONTSAME National News Agency Enkh-Orshikh Khurelee and Ambassador
of the Republic of Korea Choi Jin-won.
The MONTSAME website, www.montsame.mn, which already publishes news in Mongolian
(both Cyrillic and traditional script), Russian, English, Chinese, and
Japanese, has now begun releasing news in Korean as well.
The initiative to establish a Korean-language editorial team
had been actively discussed in recent years and was implemented with the
support of the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Mongolia on the occasion of
the 35th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
Since Mongolia transitioned to a market economy and opened
its foreign relations in 1990, the Republic of Korea was the first country with
which it established diplomatic relations. The launch of MONTSAME’s
Korean-language editorial desk will serve as a bridge for expanding economic
and political relations between the two countries and play an important role in
strengthening mutual understanding between their peoples.
As a side note, in addition to operating its website in the six languages mentioned above, MONTSAME, which is the fastest and most reliable source for promoting Mongolia internationally and delivering global news to the Mongolian public, also publishes several regular print editions: the weekly newspapers “Khumuun Bichig” (in traditional Mongol script), “Novosti Mongolii” (Russian), “Menggu Xiaoxibao” (Chinese), “Mongoru Tsushin” (Japanese), and “The Mongol Messenger” (English), as well as the quarterly English-language magazine “Mongolia Today.”
