The Straits Times

The provided text does not contain information about diplomatic activity in Beijing or world leaders looking to China for stability. Instead, it focuses on the "haenyeo" of Jeju, South Korea, referencing their portrayal in the 2025 Netflix series "When Life Gives You Tangerines." The haenyeo are described as "sea women" who free-dive for seafood, and the text highlights the community's matrilineal structure. The opening scene of the series is used to illustrate a haenyeo character calling for her mother, who then surfaces from the sea. The article also mentions Choi Soon-duk and her 93-year-old haenyeo mentor.
