Hi everyone! Our April General Meeting is happening on Thursday, April 8th at 5pm!!

We've noticed that a lot of families have been struggling to find the right time to meet with each other since we're all busy and all! So we're dedicating some time of this month's general meeting for everyone to talk and interact with their family members! We'll also be going over some cool new events we have planned, events we had in the past couple of weeks and all of that:)

We hope to see you there despite the short notice!

Happy March 1st everyone! ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท

Today marks a historic day that took place 102 years ago; On March 1st 1919 (Samil Jeol means "three-one," signifying the third month, first day), protestors demonstrated against the Japanese occupation which began in 1910, depriving Koreans of many freedoms.

The March 1st movement was a turning point; an estimated two million people took to the streets in peaceful demonstrations and a Declaration of Independence was read at a rally in Seoul.

The demonstrations were met with thousands of arrests and violence. It is estimated that around 15,000 Koreans were injured and around 7,000 were killed.

Take some time today to remember and learn more about the March 1st Movement with the link below!
