The Sejong Society supports the vision of the Korean Studies Institute at the University of Southern California:
To become the leading center in the United States for research and teaching about contemporary political, economic, and social issues that affect Korea.
Named in honor of King Sejong, one of Korea’s greatest rulers, the Sejong Society exists to support the USC Korean Studies Institute. King Sejong is best remembered for promoting scholarship and education for all the people of Korea and for encouraging research in Korea’s cultural, economic, and political heritage. Emulating his example to create new knowledge, the members of the Sejong Society support the advancement of the Institute’s mission and vision with an annual gift of $1,000 or more.
