Cheguk sinmun (Korean: 뎨국신문; 제국신문; Hanja: 帝國新聞; lit. Imperial Post) was a Korean-language newspaper published in the Korean Empire between 1898 and 1910. It founded in August 8, 1898 by Yi Jong-myeon (李鍾冕) and published in Seoul. It was published using the purely vernacular Hangul script and attracted a largely lower or middle class and female readership. It was less political than the other papers of the period, concentrating instead on social issues. One of its early reporters was the young Syngman Rhee.
