Letter from the Executive Director
Dear Readers, I am proud to present Volume 10, Issue 2 of The Fulbright Korea Infusion. As the program year comes to a close, Infusion allows us time to reflect on our trials and accomplishments. This issue often works complementary to the first as an anthology of the unique yet shared experiences in the Fulbright Korea Program. Regardless of whether you currently live in Korea or not, you will likely discover a piece in which you can see yourself. Now, as the magazine continues to grow, I hope we can all look to the future of not only this magazine, but also cross-cultural exchange between Korea and the United States. Several years from now, the written narratives and media showcased in this magazine will provide valuable glimpses into the histories and development of Korea from the vantage point of American Fulbright grantees who came from diverse backgrounds. Let us further this important dialogue on the unique relationship between Korea and the United States through this publication. For now, please enjoy this well-produced issue, and let us appreciate the hands that came together to create it. Editors, writers, photographers, designers and several others have worked tirelessly to procure this magazine and I am proud of their exceptional work. I hope we can all take a minute from our busy schedules to reflect and learn from the contributors’ visual and written works. Thank you, Jai Ok Shim Executive Director of Fulbright Korea
Letter from the Minister-Counselor
Dear Readers, It is my great pleasure to extend my greetings once again in the spring issue of the 10th volume of Infusion magazine. Congratulations to all who have contributed their energy and passion to highlight their experiences as scholars of Fulbright Korea. This publication stands as a testament to the diversity and creativity that makes the Fulbright program so unique, and it is evident from your contributions that the experience that one gains through Fulbright Korea is not limited to the academic or language exchange, as important as that is, but extends to something far more profound. As I depart Korea, I take with me the knowledge that the ties which bind our two countries are stronger than ever. You should all feel extremely proud on account of the work you are doing in schools and communities across Korea as cultural ambassadors of the United States. Sincerely, Robert W. Ogburn Minister-Counselor for Public Affairs
