Korea JoongAng Daily internship
The Asia New Zealand Foundation Te Whitau Tuhono is offering a 2025 journalism internship at the JoongAng Daily newspaper in the South Korean capital, Seoul. The Foundation's internship programme provides New Zealand journalism students and recent graduates with experience working at a media organisation in Asia in order to gain a better understanding of the people, places and culture of the host country.
The Korea JoongAng Daily is the English-language arm of JoongAng Group, a huge Korean media conglomerate spanning print, digital and broadcast. It also publishes the JoongAng Ilbo and JoongAng Sunday.
The Korea JoongAng Daily operates a bilingual newsroom with four desks — national, business, culture and sports — led by expert desk chiefs and a separate team of native speaking English-language editors recruited from some of the top media organisations in the world.
The paper has been in association with the New York Times since 2000 and co-publishes the print editions of the two newspapers together. Subscribers in Korea receive the Korea JoongAng Daily, and the International New York Times.
