The Center for Korean Studies at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa Presents

Korea Vision Dialogue #1
*The Korean Peace Process: with Lee In-young, Minister of Unification, ROK*

February 19, 2021, 2pm-3pm (Hawai‘i time; via zoom)

The U.S. President Joe Biden, in his first telephone conversation with the
South Korean President Moon Jae-in, on February 3, 2021, emphasized his
commitment to strengthening the United States-Republic of Korea alliance,
calling it as “the linchpin for peace and prosperity in Northeast Asia.”
The two leaders agreed to closely coordinate on matters related to North
Korean. South Korea has been pursuing active engagements as its key policy
and strategy to deal with North Korea. What are the South Korean
government's goals, and how is it going to achieve them? The Center for
Korean Studies is delighted to present “The Korean Peace Process” as the
inaugural event of the Korea Vision Dialogue Series, with Lee
In-young, Republic of Korea's Minister of Unification, as the first speaker.

The CKS Director Tae-Ung Baik will moderate the session, professors Young-a
Park (Asian Studies) and C. Harrison Kim (History) will join as
commentators, and Dean Peter Arnade will offer greeting remarks.


The Center for Korean Studies events are free and open to all.
