The spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is causing an unprecedented crisis around the world, with South Korea being no exception. South Korea experienced a surge of COVID-19 cases on February 19, 2020, but was able to flatten the COVID-19 curve in only 20 days without enforcing lockdown measures that restrict the freedom and movement of people. The actual field experience of the Korean government's COVID-19 response team, who participated in drafting the document "Tackling COVID-19: He

Background: Korea has achieved health policy objectives in pandemic management so far, namely minimizing mortality, flattening the epidemic curve, and limiting the socio-economic burden of its measures. The key to the Korean government's success in combating COVID-19 lies with the latest digital technologies (DTs). The prompt and effective application of DTs facilitates both containment as well as mitigation strategies and their sub-policy measures. Methods: This article uses an experiential ana

While extant research has concentrated on the promotion of regional innovation, it has predominantly adopted a knowledge-based approach. However, there has been a paucity of inquiry into the collective influence of institutional pressure and regional innovation intermediaries (RIIs) on the green business model innovation (GBMI) of small-and-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This study aims to identify the mechanisms through which SMEs enhance their GBMI, arguing that RIIs' multifaceted response t

This study explores how government support and consumer awareness affect the waste of electrical and electronic equipment reverse logistics in the circular economy framework. To improve waste of electrical and electronic equipment reverse logistics consumer awareness, the extended triple bottom line concept introduces technology with traditional economic, social, and environmental aspects. The impact of government initiatives on consumer awareness and socioeconomic factors on the intention to re

The escalation of global temperatures has heightened uncertainties in the Arctic, particularly regarding the potential release of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide , through permafrost thawing. This phenomenon is primarily driven by positive carbon feedback, leading to 3.3 times faster Arctic warming rate than the global average. To address this challenge, this study proposes a proactive strategy for substituting Arctic underground soil with biochar to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions .

Cooperation between two terrorist groups benefits both, but there are also risks. This paper focuses on these risks, especially how the demise of one group affects the longevity of the remaining groups. Using a generalized equation estimations (GEE) model with data from the Global Terrorism Database (GTD) from 2001 to 2016, this paper analyses how the disbanding of one partner terrorist group with the same ideology and regime type affects the longevity of the remaining groups in a cooperative re
