EXPRESS

written by Kim Mingyo People all around the world experience similar emotions such as love, sadness, and happiness. However, expressing those emotions exactly the same across different  languages is hard. Some words cannot be fully translated into other languages.

It caused oil prices and exchange rates to rise. On February 28, 2026, a full-scale conflict erupted as the U.S. and Israel launched bombardments against Iran to prevent its imminent completion of nuclear weapons.
