Hankook Ilbo headlines, section articles and search in Korean
Overview
Hankook Ilbo is a South Korean daily. The connector exposes its public metadata: headlines, section-level article recommendations, and a search that accepts a natural-language question rather than keywords. Results carry title, publication date, desk, byline, a link to the original, and part of the article text.
Two tools sit outside the news set and return the paper's daily and MBTI horoscope metadata. The listing and its documentation are written in Korean, which is the language the content is served in. The connector is community-listed.

Ten tools answered without credentials. Six return article lists under different cuts, from headlines and latest through recommended, timely and most-read, while search_news takes a natural-language query, list_sections enumerates the desk structure, and two horoscope tools return published metadata.
Availability
HANKOOKILBO MCP is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Hankookilbo has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.
The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.
Claude listing
HANKOOKILBO MCP publishes 10 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 45% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Entertainment & Media publishes 11, so this one sits one tool below its bucket's median, 8th of 13.
It falls in the 7-10 tools band, which holds 14.6% of the Claude directory.
A direct call to the endpoint returned 10 tools, matching the 10 the listing publishes. Probed 2026-08-07.

Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.
https://mcp.hankookilbo.com/mcp HANKOOKILBO MCP is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality.

This is an independent catalogue entry compiled by Node8 from HANKOOKILBO MCP's public marketplace listing as it stood in August 2026. Listing facts come from the marketplaces; the comparisons against the rest of the directory and any live-endpoint measurements are Node8's. Node8 is not affiliated with Hankookilbo, and inclusion here is not an endorsement.
Node8 builds MCP servers end to end: deciding which tools are worth exposing, the authentication and permission model, the review submissions, and the onboarding that gets them used. One server serves ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot.
