He is sometimes called wolverine .鈥� The European labourers in the service of the Hudson鈥檚 Bay Company call him Quickhatch …. Some people seem to think that he is a variety of the badger; others, that he is a kind of bear. The glutton is so greedy that he stuffs himself till he is ready to burst. But some writers say that this is fable. But all agree that he is very troublesome to man.

The wolverine鈥攁lso called the mountain devil, the quickhatch, the carcajou, the skunk bear鈥撯�搃s a cantankerous, and sometimes vicious animal about the size of a small labrador retriever.

South Korea鈥檚 family-run conglomerates are facing calls for a shakeup in their governance .鈥� The conglomerates known as chaebol have come under the reform buzz saw before, only to emerge bigger and stronger than ever. The country鈥檚 four biggest chaebol groups account for around half the stock market鈥檚 value, according to the Korea Stock Exchange.

Officials worry that as firms such as Naver, which began life as a search engine, and Kakao have expanded into anything from ride-hailing to personal finance, they have picked up the bad habits of the chaebol. These sprawling conglomerates were instrumental in making South Korea rich and continue to dominate its economy. But they are notorious for murky governance structures, oligopolistic business practices and close ties with the political elite.
