-- Korean Chuseok Celebration at KSCC’s 2026 Chuseok Festival filled the 2nd‑floor auditorium with more than 300 Korean American seniors, creating one of the most vibrant holiday gatherings yet.

Supporting organizations of this event include:
(1) Overseas Koreans Agency, (2) Korean American Community Foundation (KACF), (3) Korean American Foundation (KAF), (4) Open Bank, (5) Anthem Blue Cross, (6).Seoul Medical Group, (7) Eco Houseware. A two‑hour celebration was rich with community spirit.

Distinguished guests — including Consul General Kang Jung, Assemblymember Mark Gonzalez (54th District), Councilwoman Heather Hutt (LA City Council District 10), Captain Rachel Rodriguez (LAPD Olympic Division), and Mario Valenzuela (YMCA of Metropolitan LA) — joined to honor this community event.

The stage came alive with Korean dance, harmonica, trot dance, ocarina, and janggu performances, each met with standing ovations. Seniors shared Korean traditional rice cake - songpyeon - and holiday meals, creating new memories far from home.

US Metro Bank staff supported meal service, and 300 bags of rice were gifted to all participants thanks to Vice Chair Young‑Il Choi.

KSCC extends heartfelt gratitude to all supporters whose generosity made this Chuseok celebration truly special.

Day 3 of Lunch Distribution at KSCC

“Today’s sweet‑and‑sour pork is delicious!”
On the third day of KSCC’s lunch distribution, a long line formed early — yet the final count landed exactly at 100 seniors, thanks to its orderly system.

Some seniors headed home with their meals, while many walked to Dauljeong, a Korean Traditional Shelter in front of the KSCC, where senior friends gathered to eat together. One couple shared, “We usually aren’t this chatty, but eating here at Dauljeong makes us become chattier and laugh a lot,” flashing a cheerful V‑sign.

More than 30 seniors enjoyed lunch together at Dauljeong today, a beautiful corner of Korea‑Town where laughter blooms every day.

“오늘 탕수육 맛있네요~”
시니어센터 점심 도시락 배급 사흘째, 아침부터 긴 줄이 늘어섰지만 자율적 카운트 덕분인지 딱 100명 이었습니다.

도시락을 받아 집으로 가시는 분들도 계시고, 다울정으로 향해 친구들과 함께 식사하시는 분들도 많았습니다. 한 부부는 “우리가 사실 이렇게 다정하지 않은데, 다울정에서 먹을 땐 즐거워요”라며 환하게 브이 포즈를 지어 보였습니다.

오늘 낮에도 다울정에는 30명 넘는 어르신들이 삼삼오오 모여 즐겁게 식사하셨습니다. 웃음꽃이 피는 K‑타운의 아름다운 공간입니다. 감사합니다.

Dementia & Alzheimer’s Health Seminar led by Dr. Sarah Kim

***********

KSCC hosted a special medical seminar this morning at 10:30 AM with Dr. Sarah Kim, Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry at Cedars‑Sinai Medical Center.

A total of 54 participants attended the session, where Dr. Kim spent an hour explaining dementia and Alzheimer’s disease in depth. She emphasized the importance of taking proactive steps to maintain brain health.

For better memory and cognitive wellness, Dr. Kim highlighted several key habits:
• Getting 7 hours of sleep each night
• Exercising 30 minutes daily
• Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables
• Staying socially connected and making friends
• Completely avoiding smoking and alcohol

We hope today’s seminar provides meaningful guidance for our seniors and supports their long‑term health.

"kSCC Lunch Distribution Program Resumes on May 11, 2026"
__________________________

KSCC will resume its lunch meal distribution program starting Monday, May 11.

From Monday to Friday, the center will provide 80–100 Korean lunch boxes each day.

At 11:30 AM today, KSCC President Hyunok Lee met with Omar Torres, Vice President of the YMCA of Metropolitan L.A., for further discussion. Together, they reached an important agreement to restart the long‑awaited lunch program next month.

The lunch distribution program, which began in January 2024, had been suspended since January 9, 2026 due to government's budget cuts. To bring it back, KSCC sought support from California Assemblymember Mark González (District 54), which led to a connection with the YMCA of Metropolitan L.A. and ultimately made this lunch program possible.

This project, supported by an annual budget of approximately $200,000, marks another meaningful step forward for our center. We appreciate your continued interest and encouragement.
