Ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius once said, 'Music produces a kind of pleasure which human nature cannot do without.' Music plays such a big role in our lives and in order to enhance that experience we buy products like iPods and speakers. 'Insight' brings you attention to two items in particular. One is the Inkel speaker dock for smart phones and the other is the iRiver Astell and Kern digital audio player. 'Insight' takes a closer look at how these products are changing the way we appreciate music.

Shortly after the Korean War, South Korea went through rapid industrialization and economic growth and within half a century became the world's 7thlargest exporter.

In fact, it’s the only country in the world that has made this transition. For more details on Korea’s transition to a donor country and its role in international development, 'Insight' interviews Hwang Eui-don, the president of the non-profit organization World Together.
