Chosun Ilbo (English Edition) RSS feeds list

UPDATE 2024: 

They've restructured the English version of the site and have apparently removed all feeds. None of the following are functional anymore, despite them still listing the main full English feed on the Korean version of the site. 

I e-mailed their customer service and was told they have no plans to build RSS feeds into the English site. They are still offered for the Korean version. 

Too bad, since some of their English content is unique or exclusive compared to other English language Korean news. Looks like it will be harder to reliably stay updated with their articles now. Unfortunate.

The Chosun Ilbo offers several catagories of RSS feeds for their content by certain news sections. Here's a big list of all the feeds I could find for this news source.



The Chosun is one of the more conservative-leaning daily newspapers in Korea. Not surprising then, their English language edition is usually more newsy and serious. None of the left-wing soapboxing of the Hani, and few of the questionably-edited puff pieces of the KT. So it's a decent source for decent Koreaphiles to add to their RSS reader.

Main Chosun Ilbo RSS feed


They publicize only their main, full-news RSS feed:

But I always prefer categorized feeds to help keep the flood of articles down to just those areas I'm interested in. So I went snooping, and with some Google-fu and some trial-and-error, came up with the following list of other currently-working RSS feeds for various paper sections. You'll notice some repeat at different URLs. This is not an exhaustive list, as far as I know, and there may be others for other categories. If you find another, let me know.

Chosun Ilbo keyword search feed


Another neat trick I discovered, which is featured on their Korean-language RSS service, is that you can subscribe to keyword searches also. It seems to search your keyword across all content (Korean and English articles) but if you use an English-language keyword, the resulting article count is pretty well restricted to English content. Try it out:

Here's a feed for articles about "Busan" for example.


Awhile back I did something similar for Korea Times news section feeds, and you can my other feed-related posts here.

Happy news reading.
