MySpace Launches in South Korea
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Filed at 1:00 p.m. ET
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) -- MySpace's chief executive said Tuesday the U.S. networking Web site is poised to thrive in the South Korean market because it pays more attention to local culture than its competitors.

Written on 10:42 PM by Gee
