Awareness of natural disasters and climate change

Recently, the large natural disasters that occurred in the United States and South Korea are raising awareness about climate change. In the U.S., powerful tornadoes in mid-March and mid-May resulted in a total of 70 fatalities, marking the deadliest weather disaster of 2025 so far. Significant damage occurred particularly in Laurel County, Kentucky, and St. Louis, Missouri, with a tendency for the frequency of tornadoes to shift from the traditional "Tornado Alley" to the southern regions. This change is interpreted as being influenced by climate change, underscoring the need to strengthen disaster prediction and response systems based on future weather data and artificial intelligence. In South Korea, large-scale wildfires broke out in late March in Gyeongsangbuk-do and Ulsan, leading to 32 deaths and damage to over 15,000 hectares of forest. Cultural heritage sites, including Gounsa Temple, were also affected, prompting the Cultural Heritage Administration to issue a "serious" national crisis alert.

Continuous Interest in the Sports and Entertainment Industry

Interest in major sports leagues such as Major League Baseball (MLB), the National Hockey League (NHL) playoffs, and Liga MX continues to grow, with players like Aaron Judge and Anthony Volpe gaining fans' attention. In the entertainment sector, popular content like season 3 of 'House of the Dragon' and episode 6 of 'The Last of Us' is drawing attention, reflecting changes in digital content consumption patterns. The influence of celebrities such as Jessica Simpson, Rebecca Ferguson, and Luke Bryan also contributes to shaping consumer trends.

Trends in Technology and Finance

Interest in digital finance and virtual economy-related technologies such as Bitcoin price prediction, NFTs, and blockchain continues to grow, creating an atmosphere where hopes and concerns coexist. Additionally, health-related issues such as prostate cancer diagnosis technology and the Nipah virus are also garnering attention, highlighting the importance of technological advancement and responses to health crises.

Social Issues and Cultural Trends

Kanye West's canceled visit to Korea goes beyond mere entertainment news, spreading into discussions of art and culture, illustrating the importance of connectivity in the global cultural industry and its social repercussions. Furthermore, the interest in prominent figures such as Kwon Yul and Kim Yuna reveals the significant cultural influence within the Korean market, with their activities impacting trend formation across various fields.
