The gala featured speeches by our esteemed Board Members and Queens College President James Muyskens, and the keynote address was given by Assistant Secretary Rhea Suh. Assistant Secretary Suh gave an inspiring and articulate speech, reinforcing the importance of our Research Center and also calling for younger Korean Americans to take a more active role in government and other forms of public service.\u00a0The gala also featured a performance of Seungmu (\uc2b9\ubb34), a traditional Korean Buddhist dance that is known as the Monk’s Dance.<\/div>\n
