2022-12-09 Seoul Honorary Citizenship (ceremony & media roundup)

 


On September 29, 2022, I was informed that I had been awarded Seoul Honorary Citizenship. December 9th, I was one of the 18 non-Koreans to receive Seoul Honorary Citizenship. 

I was delighted to have several colleagues and supporters join me at the ceremony. They all have had a special role in my activities here.

Breen's column that outraged Samsung

“What People Got for Christmas” Michael Breen The Korea Times December 25, 2009 At this time of year when Seoul’s bare winter trees are wrapped in beckoning lights ― blue and white are the in colors ― and Merry Xmas signs at hotels and department stores are really saying come-hither-gentle-reveler-and-empty-your-purse, and when expensive restaurants belch noisy year-end office party groups onto every street and the karaoke rooms are full, it is tempting to declare that Christmas has lost its soul. But that would be a mistake. Christmas is a time for giving, and, before they can be given, gifts have to be bought. Commerce is good. Here, as proof, is a round up of some of the gifts given and received today by people in the news.

We were in studio to discuss HOPE (Helping Others Prosper Through English).  I was also happy because I learned more about HOPE than I have at any other time. I learn about HOPE the way a man learns about fashion by listening to a podcast as he is running down the street getting dressed. Yes, I am learning, but it is on the run. I was named an International Adviser to the organization during the middle of a big project, and have kept moving ever since... The host of the show creates a warm mood when she is talking with guests. Producer Euny Park and writers Jungmi Ahn Cote and Yujin Lee were delightful in greeting us and also making us feel comfortable.
