For the second year in a row, I was a keynote speaker at the World Youth Rally. Thank you so much to the organizers for making this incredible banner featuring me.

When I spoke in 2018, I was a keynote speaker. In 2019, I returned as a keynote speaker, but last year I brought TNKR students with me.
Ken Eom, TNKR Special Ambassador, entertained the crowd as usual.
Jade Kim gave an analytical talk. She first joined TNKR in late 2014 or early 2015. In July 2020, she was named as TNKR's second Academic Coordinator.
Another North Korean refugee who is becoming influential behind the scenes coordinating with helping NK refugees tell their stories was also a featured speaker. He visited TNKR recently to inform us about his activities.
Sharon Jang, an office assistant with TNKR then and who has returned, also joined that event last year. It meant that we had four North Korean refugees at the event.
We were joined by our interns and staffers. It wasn't just a World Youth Rally, but it was also a TNKR Rally!
