Encore! Encore! Encore speech at Daejin Girls' HS (2022-09-06)

Last night I celebrated my birthday with a speech at Daejin Girls' High School. Yesterday's speech was about Harvard University. I returned today to give a speech about volunteering.

If I am ever in a bad mood then I will contact the school to ask if they will let me speak to the students.

It was another great evening. The last two nights they heard me speak for a total of three hours, and they remained focused the entire time.

One of the teachers at the school took many photos that she will be sending to me soon.

FSI co-founder Eunkoo Lee was the interpreter although the students demonstrated that they understood most of what I said.

Tonight because the topic was volunteering and we mentioned FSI, I made it a point to make sure Eunkoo (a shy lady) said something. And she did!

SELFIE TIME

I have never asked anyone to take a selfie, but I have agreed to join selfies with others. The last two nights I have been a photo zone.

Meeting with teachers

After meeting with students I met with teachers at the school as well as from other schools who came to interview me about North Korean refugee students.

Chosun Monthly magazine [Korean language]

Chosun Monthly Magazine has made an announcement (in Korean) about the Seoul Honorary Citizenship award that I received on December 9, 2022. Our Korean staffers say that the magazine is a big deal in South Korea. Here's the overall roundup of media about the award. In the next two months, I have extended interviews coming up in two different magazines, one in the USA and one in South Korea. Both articles will be in respected publications so they should raise awareness of FSI's work that your support makes possible. * * * Support FSI via Stripe or PayPal . https://donate.stripe.com/3cs28F5IAcc85IAaEF or PayPal .

From nothing to something super special (2023-02-10)

FSI has moved into a better institutional neighborhood where we are the poorest in the area. In August 2022, I was elected as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Freedom Speakers International (FSI) and in January 2023 FSI achieved incorporation status in South Korea. This has meant that FSI must upgrade operations and structure and I am the one, as chairman and co-president, who will be blamed if it doesn’t happen. I really should not be the chairman, for a variety of reasons, but anyway I am. Eunkoo and I are not the typical executives of a growing organization. In addition to being mainly responsible for building and fundraising for the organization, we are the hands-on leaders who are constantly in contact with North Korean refugee speakers. We look forward to the day we can afford staff to handle many tasks. Until then we can expect to continue having more days like yesterday, even on Eunkoo’s birthday. 2023-02-10 Meeting #1: planning We started Eunkoo’s birthday with a planning...
