Chōsen Shinpō

Chōsen Shinpō (朝鮮新報, Korean: 『조선신보』; lit. 'Korea Newspaper'), was a newspaper written in Japanese and Classical Chinese, with at least one article known to have been written in Korean in the Hangul script. It was the first newspaper to be published in Korea, with its first issue released in Busan primarily for Japanese readers on December 10, 1881. It is not known with certainty when the paper ceased publication, although it had at least twelve issues and the assumption of a thirteenth issue written on the twelfth.

Well-educated Koreans would have been able to read the Classical Chinese and Hangul parts of the newspaper. The first full Korean-language newspaper to be published was Hanseong sunbo, which was published in 1883. Japan's own first newspaper was not in the Japanese language; it was the 1861 Nagasaki Shipping List and Advertiser, which was published by an Englishman.

Albert Altman wrote in 1984 that the only known extant copies of the paper are held in the Meiji Newspaper and Magazine Library of the University of Tokyo. Only issues between five and twelve were available. The date of the first two issues are known from a different newspaper that wrote about the Chōsen, the Tokyo Nichi Nichi Shimbun.
