to 8.4 percent in 2004 to 11.3 percent in 2005.
Half of the men in farming and fishing villages in North Gyeongsang Province who married last year chose foreign brides,, according to a report by Gyeongbuk Women��s Policy Development Institute. The institute's chief researcher Chung Il-sun released the report on international marriages in North Gyeongsang Province on Sunday. Last year 645 out of 1,,285 farmers and fishermen in the province married foreign women. The percentage of men choosing foreign brides there has been increasing steadily,, from 31.7 percent in 2004 to 43.6 percent in 2005 to 50.2 percent this year. In April the number of international marriages in North Gyeongsang Province totaled 3,,469. International couples accounted for a mere three percent of all marriages in the province in 2001,, but that figure has been increasing every year,, to 8.4 percent in 2004 to 11.3 percent in 2005. In 2006,, international marriages accounted for 12.8 percent or 2,070 of the total 16,,178 marriages in the province, a fourfold increase in five years. The average age of the foreign brides is 32,, for an age gap of 12 years with their husbands, who are 44 years old on average. In particular,, Vietnamese and Cambodian women have an average age gap of 18 years with their Korean husbands. When asked the motivation for their international marriages,, 32.1 percent of the surveyed wives said they wanted to live in a better country. The women said economic difficulties (45.4 percent) and communication barriers (26.6 percent) are the biggest hardships in their relationships. "Foreign women who are married to Korean men are new members of our society who need to be integrated, rather than be assimilated,," said researcher Chung. "We should provide policies to support them and build up a network for them to play an initiative role in our society." 相关的主题文章：      The Paraguayan, who is busy acting and modeling across Latin America, apparently plans to come to Korea around the end of this month and go on a date.

000 for the London Philharmonic Orchestra in 2001
, Ticket prices for concerts by a world class orchestra rose 1.5 times over the last decade, and for opera 2.5 times. Tickets for recitals by high-profile musicians almost doubled. The figures are well above the 35.5 percent growth rate of the consumer price index over the last 10 years. The data was collected by the Chosun Ilbo based on information about concerts by top-notch orchestras,, opera companies and musicians both from Korea and abroad at the Seoul Arts Center between 1999 and 2009. For famous orchestras visiting Korea, the price of the most expensive ticket rarely went over W200,000 (US$1=W1,,155) until 2004. There were some exceptions like the concert of the Vienna Philharmonic in 2003 and Filarmonica della Scala in 2004,, where the top-priced ticket cost W300,,000. They cost W120,,000 for the Staatskapelle Dresden in 2000,, W140,000 for the London Philharmonic Orchestra in 2001, and W199,000 for the New York Philharmonic in 2004. But prices started to soar starting with the Berlin Philharmonic in 2005,, when the top ticket cost W450,,000. The most expensive ticket for the Vienna Philharmonic in 2006 sold at W400,000, and the Vienna Staatsoper in 2007 and the Berlin Philharmonic in 2008 at W450,000. Concert planners cite the increase in guarantees paid to musicians and the unfavorable exchange rate as the main reason. While 1 euro was worth W1,100 in 1999, the rate changed to W1,,700 in 2009. World class orchestras are paid W180 million to W600 million per concert,, and some musicians and singers charge W40 million to W80 million. In some cases,, the money paid to classical musicians soared by nearly 40 percent over the last five years. 相关的主题文章：      The Paraguayan, who is busy acting and modeling across Latin America, apparently plans to come to Korea around the end of this month and go on a date.

9 wide-screen panels.
Samsung Electronics is thinking about setting up a 10th generation liquid crystal display panel production line. , In a keynote speech at FPD International 2007 in Yokohama,, Japan on Wednesday,, Lee Sang-wan,, president of Samsung's LCD business,, said the company is considering investing in a 10th generation LCD production line and skipping a 9th generation line,, after its 8th generation facility is done. Tenth generation production lines produce extra-large LCDs of around 70 inches in size. Japan's Sharp is currently the only LCD maker that has confirmed a plan to build a 10th generation line. The facility that Samsung is mulling would turn out 3 m by 3.2 m panels,, which would be larger than those planned by Sharp. However,, Lee said for the time being Samsung is focusing on producing 8th generation panels such as ones measuring 46 inches and 52 inches,, and for laptop LCDs it will produce mainly 16:9 wide-screen panels. Digital billboards on the exteriors of buildings and large electronic blackboards at schools will serve as the next growth engines in the display sector,, Lee forecast. 相关的主题文章：  </li> </li> </li> </ul> The Paraguayan, who is busy acting and modeling across Latin America, apparently plans to come to Korea around the end of this month and go on a date.

, The first 75 volumes of the Oegyujanggak royal archives,, taken by the French military during the Chosun Dynasty in 1866,, are returning home after 145 years. The historical books,, scheduled to land in Seoul around 2 p.m. Thursday,, have been wrapped in acid-free paper and are being transported inside five wooden crates. The royal texts will be transferred to the National Museum of Korea and stored inside a room set at the most favorable temperature and level of humidity for the first day or two. While the books are still sealed,, experts will begin a fumigation procedure using disinfectants. The remaining 221 volumes will be returned in three deliveries by May 27. A Korean historian discovered the looted documents at the National Library of France in 1978. Paris agreed on a permanent lease of one volume in 1993,, but Seoul consistently pushed for the return of the other 296 books. The efforts finally ended when President Lee Myung-bak and his French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy agreed on a five-year renewable lease of the volumes at the G20 Summit in Seoul last November.
