Who’s behind TheGatBull?
TheGatBull is an independent publication that decodes the Korean stock market for English-speaking investors. The character you’ll see around here — Mr. Gat, the bull in a traditional Korean gat hat — is our way of making KOSPI and KOSDAQ a little less intimidating.
Why trust us?
Behind Mr. Gat is a Seoul-metro-based operator with 20 years of business experience and a daily habit of reading Korean corporate disclosures in their original language. Every number on this site is traced back to primary sources: official IR filings on DART (Korea’s electronic disclosure system), exchange data, and company announcements — not secondhand summaries.
How we work
Drafts are prepared with the help of AI tools, then every article is reviewed, fact-checked against the original Korean filings, and edited by a human before publishing. If we get something wrong, we correct it and say so.
What we are not
We are not financial advisors, and nothing here is investment advice. We explain what Korean companies disclose and what’s moving the market — what you do with that information is up to you. See our full Disclaimer.
