South Korea Desk
A curated directory of five Korean Ministry of National Defense (국방부) press releases republished by Republic of Korea Policy Briefing. Original official links and bibliographic metadata only; separate MND and DAPA publisher indexes are outbound research navigation, not additional reviewed records or a production archive.
Verified MND official-link feed live — original-source archive remains restricted
Public official-source directory: five original headline/date entries, nine additional historical links, and separately admitted new official-link metadata when available. Original document bodies and substantive analysis remain outside the production archive.

Ministry of National Defense — official references
Five source references from one Korean Ministry of National Defense (국방부) release family, republished by Republic of Korea Policy Briefing (대한민국 정책브리핑). These five entries preserve their original Korean headlines and release dates. Nine additional exact official URLs appear below without unreviewed headlines or analytical descriptions. These are not IPR archived records or independent confirmation of a statement's claims. The fourteen historical links are frozen to the October 14, 2026 original-source snapshot; newly collected official-link metadata, when admitted, is listed separately below.

Further MND publisher references
These nine source URLs have been matched against the frozen official publisher article IDs and recorded response hashes. Their unreviewed Korean headlines, event claims and document text are not reproduced. This list does not establish continuous coverage, military-event verification, or eligibility for IPR's analysis and archive.

Continuously collected · official government links only
New verified MND references
These additional source references were collected from the official Korea Policy Briefing republication of Ministry of National Defense releases and admitted to IPR's production metadata database under the October 15, 2026 standing link-only publication policy. No human editor has verified the underlying event claims, and this list does not contain original headlines, translated text, document bodies, photographs or analysis. Collection can be incomplete or interrupted.
Editor-reviewed English · exact Korean source provenance
Reviewed translations and source-grounded analysis
Each translation is checked against the exact published Korean text. Editorial analyses distinguish official statements from independent corroboration and identify the limits of the available source. No HWPX files or images are reproduced.

They are government statements, not independently verified IPR findings. HWPX files, photographs and embedded media are not mirrored here. English translations are linked separately only after bilingual and editorial review.

Pre-registered source universe
The declared source universe distinguishes isolated active shadow families from merely researched or blocked institutions. It is not coverage. Shadow preservation does not enter the public corpus before independent source admission.
Sources identified
| Source | Item format | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Ministry of National Defense — Policy Briefing republications (Korean) | Original Korean HWPX attached to government-portal press releases; separately preserved isolated shadow Git state | Exact source family kr_policy_mnd_releases; original issuer 국방부, publisher 대한민국 정책브리핑. It is not direct MND.gov.kr or DAPA material. Private reader checks source identity and SHA; five October 11 originals separately passed real HWPX parity. |
| Defense Acquisition Program Administration (방위사업청) — Policy Briefing press index (Korean; research only) | Official first-party DAPA-filtered Korean press-release index; external navigation only, no DAPA shadow collection or public corpus records | Publisher 대한민국 정책브리핑, distinct original issuer 방위사업청 (B00008). The October 8 samples include separately linked HWPX and PDF formats, not corroborating publications. DAPA access, extraction, content-rights review, shadow clock, and source admission are unapproved; this index is not IPR-vetted coverage. |
Remaining barriers to source admission
- Substantive Korean-language analysis not admitted.
- The five original HWPX files have passed machine parity but no independent Korean-language semantic and rendering signoff. The public directory provides official-source links and titles only, without IPR analytical summaries.
- Original documents, images and future sources excluded.
- Only source links and factual bibliographic metadata are shown. KOGL Type 1 source-text attribution does not cover all embedded photographs, media or HWPX components. No such material is reproduced.
- Production collector promotion is separate.
- Public reference links do not enable a production source, claim countrywide coverage, populate the archive or make raw Korean text eligible for AI-generated Briefs. Full production promotion requires the separate reliability and admission process.
What has already been solved
- Private SHA-pinned reader and real-source verification operate.
- PRs #410, #413 and #414 merged on October 11: metadata-only reader, bounded five-document review workbench and an on-demand GitHub Actions workflow. No publisher fetch, public body export, production collection or deployment.
- Bounded public official-link directory authorized.
- Five canonical Korea Policy Briefing MND republication references are selected from a fixed, SHA-pinned private audit snapshot. The owner explicitly requested public link-only publication.
Limits of this desk, stated plainly
- Public scope is five frozen bibliographic links, not 5 production archive records, 5 separately corroborated sources or live Korea military coverage.
- Issuing institution: Republic of Korea Ministry of National Defense (국방부); public publisher: Republic of Korea Policy Briefing (대한민국 정책브리핑). No direct MND.gov.kr ingest, DAPA or other-agency collection; the DAPA publisher index is a navigation link only.
- The directory reproduces Korean headline, canonical official link and source dates only. No IPR translation, full original Korean article body, HWPX, photo, PDF, diagram or video is published.
- Source-author claims are not independently verified by IPR; original distribution and portal posting dates are shown separately. No automatic Sunday Brief or production collector admission.
