Seoul Press Online
The Seoul Press (published 1907-1937) was Japan’s Korean news flagship. Its mission was to validate the natural justice of Japanese imperialism in Korea, and Japan as the redeeming, organising, and modernising force in East Asia.
The Seoul Press represented the Japanese administration of Korea to the world. The collection includes the years 1907-09 and 1928-37. If any of the missing issues are discovered, they will be added at no extra cost to subscribers.

This collection is certainly an essential source of information for the study of Japan and Asia in the first half of the twentieth century." - Tsuchiya Reiko, in:
