I’ve been asked to pass on the following:
WOMENLABKOREA (여성 연구)
Daejanggeum and “the Impossible Country,” Thursday December 3rd
Description:
A #WMLABTALKS event—inspirational thought-provoking lectures.
At womenlabkorea, we are inspired by remarkable women and women’s organizations, and so we set out to tell stories that highlight women’s lives and their role in South Korea.
We believe that one voice or one story can make a difference and that is why we are rallying female entrepreneurs, expat women, nonprofit founders, bloggers, and more to share their voice and insight.
This time our speaker will be Soohee Kim, a Korean entrepreneur and Korean Language teacher. Inspired by the true story of Jang-Geum, an apprentice cook that became the first female royal physician of the Joseon Dynasty, Ms Kim will tell us her own story of perseverance and her own vision of this fascinating country’s impressive achievements.
All proceeds will be donated to programs supporting North Korean refugees and participants´ support will make an enormous and powerful impact.
Schedule: 10:00 AM-12:30 PM
Venue: Hillside Residence
