In 1989, South Korea's four largest dailies, "Hankook Ilbo", "Joongang Ilbo", "Chosun Ilbo", and "Donga Ilbo", had a combined circulation of more than 6.5 million. The anti-establishment "The Hankyoreh", had 450,000 readers – less than the major dailies or smaller papers like "Kyonghan Shinmun" or "Seoul Shinmun", but larger than four more specialised economic dailies. All the major dailies were privately owned, except for the government-controlled Hankook Ilbo. Several other daily publications had specialised readerships among sport fans and youth. Two English-language newspapers, the government-subsidised Korea Herald and the Korea Times, which was affiliated with the independent Soul simmun, were widely read by foreign embassies and businesses. A Chinese-language daily served South Korea's small Chinese population.
