Air pollution in South Korea

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I have chosen this article to evaluate because this is an issue that is the most common around the world that affects many, especially people with breathing medical conditions. This problem also affects many underrepresented people which is a subject that I'm very interested in.

Throughout the article the author has connections to most of the facts that they have chosen to use within the article. Every piece of fact that was put into the article has a reliable resource or connection to back it up. There was nothing that could really distract a reader from the topic that is being discussed within the article. Everything in a way is being connected to the main point of air pollution. For example they have connected things to help prevent air pollution, things that have cause such bad air pollution, also the consequences that the people located in that area suffer. In a way there is some type of bias in the article because of how South Korea is blaming China for their terrible air pollution, when in reality its a mixture of many things not just that. The sources that I checked seem to be neutral and don't look like they represent a certain side. Like one source comes from the website Heliyon, There are many other like the Guardian, Washington Post, or Environmental Research. There really isn't any viewpoints that are underrepresented within the article or even overrepresented. Everything in the article has a good standpoint and on what side they represent. Most of the links that I checked all worked and took you to the site. I didn't see any type of plagiarism or identical wording from the sources in the article. From what I see the information put into the article is sufficient for it to feel complete and have the necessary for anyone to get information on this topic. The information that I took a look at wasn't out of date since many of them are from recent years anywhere from 2018, 2019, and 2020., and most of the information has been updated and reviewed.
