Description

Join us when the Korean Spirit & Culture Promotion Project (KSCPP) brings two movies showing Korea through her past and present achievements which are not well known worldwide. The first film will introduce a truly enlightened 15th century monarch, King Sejong the Great. King Sejong initiated numerous cultural achievements and scientific inventions to improve the welfare of his people. The second film illustrates how the king’s achievements and lessons transformed the nation into the 6th largest export country in the world. Korea now leads the world in I.T., electronic, construction and shipping industries.
