Korea Press Foundation is a non-profit and nonpartisan organization dedicated to promoting professional journalism in Korean media.
The foundation focuses on the development of the media industry not only by assisting the activities of journalists and management of media companies, but through independent, top-notch programs such as journalists training, research and survey, periodicals, news articles and other comprehensive information services through out state-of-the art database system(KINDS).

The three predecessors of the KPF; Korean Press Institute, Korea Press Center and Korea Journalists Fund had 20 years of deep-rooted history in promoting Korean media and serving the public interest. And they were reborn as the Korea Press Foundation in 1999 as an integrated institution for Korean media that represents the public interest while pursuing the freedom of the press and the public values.
