Four ways to pull wikitree.co.kr

The 1 hatched days are gaps in the upstream news archive, not quiet days at 위키트리: the whole corpus dips on those dates. They are excluded from the median above.

Publishing rhythm

Latest articles

The 18 most recent 위키트리 articles in the index — the same rows the API returns, rendered for humans.

Harvest it all

Page through the archive by date. from and to accept YYYY-MM-DD or relative values such as now-7d.

bash
curl "https://freenewsapi.ai/v1/search?host=www.wikitree.co.kr&from=now-7d&size=100"

To poll for new material, keep the timestamp of the newest article you saw and ask only for what came after it:

bash
curl "https://freenewsapi.ai/v1/search?host=www.wikitree.co.kr&from=now-1h&sort=date_asc"

Article bodies come with full_text=true. No key, no quota tier, no header — see the search endpoint for every parameter.

FAQ

Does 위키트리 have an official API?

Not a public one. This endpoint is the practical alternative: their articles as structured JSON, with title, lead, publication time, section, byline and a link back to the original.

How do I get their RSS feed?

Most publishers expose one at /rss or /feed, but feeds carry only the last few dozen items and drop them within hours. This index keeps 9,112 of their articles and lets you filter by date, language and section.

How many articles does 위키트리 publish per day?

183 on a median day, measured across 55 days.

Can I use this commercially?

The API is free and unauthenticated. What you may do with the content is between you and the publisher: we return metadata, a lead paragraph and a link, not a licence.
