2024 Korea-ful Night : Dynamic Korea
House of Korea is happy to invite you all to the 2024’s Korea-Ful Night: Dynamic Korea.
We are very honored to introduce our two speakers: Flip Ahn Cuddy who serves as the Dosan Ahn Family Historian and an expert on the Korean Independence Movement in America. And the award-winning Jinwoo Nam who is named by The Korean Times as one of 10 Korean American heroes who have brought pride to the Korean community.
We hope you enjoy cultural performances by San Diego Korean Folk Dance Association, XCENTRIC! & MP TaeKwonDo Challenge Team , while enjoying delicious Korean food.
2023 Korea-ful Night
House of Korea is happy to unwrap and reveal 2023’s Korea-Ful Night: Present.
Through this event, House of Korea announces that we are “present”. The event commemorates the past–the historical significance of 70 years of alliance between the United States and the Republic of Korea, and the 120 years of Korean immigration to the United States–but also celebrates the “present”. And as we “present” the night, the hope is that we also lay a foundation for the future.
Featuring speakers like the award winning, lawyer-turned-documentary filmmaker Mr. Joseph Juhn and Associate Professor of Dance at SDSU Dr. Chuyun Oh, and performances by UCSD KOTX, SD Korean Folk Dance Association, and San Diego Catholic Singers.
