Talk:Foreign relations of South Korea

Tags
I've added a few tags, tone, outdated and Unreferenced. The article's overall tone, while certainly professional and well presented, reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia. The majority of the data is from June 1990, and while it is absolutely wonderful that we were able to get it from a public domain resource, it's outdated. As for the references tag, that's because the data that is more up to date isn't referenced. --85.5.222.103 (talk) 19:47, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

My two cents
I'd say that this is a high-importance, start-class (maybe B-class) article. Ecthelion83 (talk) 13:23, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

NPOV
This article seems incredibly pro-South Korea, in the sense that it outlines every minor success of South Korea while not outlining any difficulties or problems South Korea has with other nations other than suggesting that these other nations have impeded South Korea's efforts. This seems to be a common problem with my South Korea related articles. Smeggysmeg (talk) 14:34, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

UK entry needed under foreign relations
The UK was either the very first or second country in the world to recognise South Korea and subsequently needs an entry.Twobells (talk) 11:33, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

File nominated for deletion on commons
The file c:File:Emblem of Korean Courts.svg used in this article has been nominated for deletion on Commons Reason: I think time has come to finish the long-forgotten (or ignored) question: Is free? I doubt its freeness, based on the fact that we do not have definite answer for Template talk:KOGL. To save your click...   We, as of 2018, do not have a final answer for this. And this means, we have to delete these images, including some VIs and FPs. Deletion request: link Message automatically deposited by a robot - -Harideepan (talk) 06:15, 23 March 2018 (UTC).

Delete "In 2018, the legal foundation of the friendly and cooperative relationship developed between two countries since 1965 had overthrown. The legal foundation is "Agreement on the Settlement of Problems concerning Property and Claims and on Economic Co-operation between Japan and the Republic of Korea". Under this severe situation surrounding the relationship caused by the South Korea side, the government of Japan will be taking necessary measures against South Korea.[24]" This appears to rely heavily on one source from a non-neutral viewpoint. This is indicated by the language used, such as 'overthrown'. NettingFish15019 (talk) 15:35, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
