Top headlines in major S. Korean newspapers

SEOUL, September 14 (Yonhap) -- The top headlines in major South Korean newspapers on September 14 included several significant political developments. In Korean-language dailies, the ruling party asked Yong Hye-in to resign from her position as gender minister, but she declined and later stepped down voluntarily, citing pressure from the Democratic Party.

This decision led to a decline in her approval ratings and shifted the focus to Kim Seung-won. English-language dailies reported on a similar situation, where the gender minister nominee stepped aside amid mounting pressure from within the ruling party. Additionally, there were reports on China catching up with HBM, and the expansion of the market for testamentary trust due to a surge in inheritance disputes.

In contrast to these political headlines, English-language dailies also covered a Taiwan-China row at the Gwangju Biennale and a poll indicating that Koreans oppose sending forces to Hormuz.
