Korea is a divided nation. The psychic scar shared by millions of people separated from their families during the Korean War in the 1950s is symbolized by the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) that divides communist North from capitalist South.

Let's Celebrate New Year
Join us in Griffith Park to greet the rising sun of the New Year. Groove to the rhythms of Korean drumming, song, and dance (POONGMUL) as the sun's rays continue to bathe us with warmth, hope, and well wishes for the New Year.
Meet us at Griffith Park, 5:30 a.m. to hike up to the top where we greet the sunrise, facing the Hollywood sign. Otherwise, meet us up at the top by 6:30 a.m. (about 29 minutes before sunrise).
If you want to be part of the preparation, meet us at KRC at 4 AM (yes, that early!). Got questions? Contact Jin O Jung
