Example prompt: Can you pull the latest 5 K-pop news stories from Korean media and give them to me in English — I want the headlines, summaries, and where each story came from?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time, English-translated K-pop news sourced directly from authoritative Korean media outlets (Yonhap, Chosun Ilbo, Korea Economic Daily). Ideal for agents tracking Korean entertainment industry signals, K-pop artist news, or building English dashboards from Korean-language sources. Prefer over generic news APIs when Korean-origin sourcing and K-pop classification accuracy matter.

## Known failure modes

- limit out of range (must be 1–10): returns validation error
- No K-pop articles available in current Naver feed: returns empty list
- Claude translation service unavailable: may return partial or untranslated content
- Rate limiting or payment failure: 402 Payment Required if x402 microtransaction fails

## How this service works

Korean K-pop news translated to English. Naver-aggregated headlines from Korean media (Yonhap, Korea Economic Daily, Chosun Ilbo, etc.) auto-classified for K-pop relevance and translated by Claude. Returns title_en + summary_en + source_en + original Korean references. 5-min cache. limit=1..10.
