Greetings from Oriental Press!

 

For more than 30 years Oriental Press has been a cornerstone of the US Military Community as primary publisher of the most important community publications on the peninsula. All free of charge to readers, and easily available to everyone. With the experience gained from printing and circulating 5 separate newspapers, we are pleased and proud to be publishers of the two current community newspapers for the US Armed Forces with the Morning Calm for the US Army, and the Crimson Sky for the US Air Force – both extremely important media for today’s soldiers and airmen, but also including service members of the US Navy and the US Marines.

 

Advertisers know the value of our media, in their advertising and promotion planning – to reach the most targeted audience for their goods and services in Korea. For more than half a century, US service members and their families have represented a solid and dedicated group of consumers for virtually any and everything available for sale. 

And now with some additional value-added opportunities, combined with very attractive pricing and substantial discounts, Oriental Press offers the best and most economical solutions to penetrate or expand in this market – and we are here to help you. 

 

The main foundation of our publishing is built upon the Morning Calm which serves the community with 10,000 Copies Bi-Weekly. Providing vital information to the community, it is the “go-to” source that is readily available at all high traffic areas on every US Military installation in Korea. Completely portable and user-friendly, the Morning Calm offers its readers exactly what they need and want to know – right at their fingertips! The Morning Calm has proven itself repeatedly to be an essential community asset that never loses its importance or value. 

 

Adding to the Morning Calm is the Crimson Sky with another7,000 Copies Bi-Weekly. The command information media of the US 7th Air Force, the Crimson Sky is widely circulated at all US Air Force installations and activities throughout Korea. Together these two official Public Affairs publications make for a solid penetration into this all important market in a one-two punch that no other media in Korea can deliver in the US Military market. And when combined with additional circulation through other authorized outlets like the USO, VFW, NCOA and the American Red Cross etc., the reach and effectiveness of this information network cannot be equaled. 

 

The Seoul Survivor (12,000 Copies Annually), published annually each spring by the American Forces’ Spouses’ Club (AFSC),– a prominent community organization that performs important and charitable community services for the American military community in Korea, has for nearly three decades been the preeminent “Welcome & Orientation” guide book for all US personnel in Korea. 

 

And now combined with the newly premiered “Outside the Gate” adds another 6000 copies to the total coverage. Containing first-hand accounts of restaurants, shops & shopping, outings, and trips in the local area, this invaluable community resource will equip everyone stationed at Osan and all US Air Force personnel in Korea with the exact information and insight they need to enjoy their time in Korea to the fullest. “Outside the Gate” will be distributed in Osan, Kunsan and Yongsan each spring.

 

Oriental Press’ media network is an invaluable companion to EVERYONE connected, associated, or affiliated with the US military and government community throughout Korea, and directly benefits those sponsors who participate in and support it. The rich returns and rewards are almost impossible to calculate.
