The Korea Defense Veterans Association (KDVA) is very excited to announce the 1st Campus Club of 2025 in Korea. KDVA Campus Club at Pyeongtaek University located in Pyeongtaek, South Korea. The KDVA Campus Club (KCC) is led by Club President Kim Jun, with support from Professor Han Ki-jung, Faculty Advisor.
The Pyeongtaek University KDVA Campus Club (PTU KCC) is excited to bring together students with common interests to increase awareness and advocacy of the ROK-U.S. Alliance and our Veterans. With the support of KDVA, they will host Meet and Greets, Webinars, Conferences, Korean Cultural Experiences, and more.
Club President, Kim Jun said, “I’m truly excited and honored to take the first step of KCC together with our students in PTU. KCC was founded out of a shared love for Korean culture and a desire to share it with others.
Through topics like food, music, traditions, and language, we hope to learn from one another, connect, and create meaningful and enjoyable experiences.
I hope our small community becomes a space where hearts are connected through culture, and where greater understanding and friendship can grow. Thank you sincerely to everyone who has supported the launch of KCC — we look forward to this journey with you!”
Professor Han Ki-jung said, “I believe the PTU KCC will play a small but meaningful role in enhancing cultural understanding between Korea and the United States and in further strengthening the robust alliance between our two nations. Culture serves as the foundation of diplomacy, and each of your efforts will be a valuable step toward expanding the grassroots of the ROK-U.S. Alliance.”
The Pyeongtaek KCC will hold its Launch Meet & Greet on, Monday, June 23 at 2:00 PM, Lecture Hall, 2nd Floor, Munmu-Gwan, Pyeongtaek University. Whether you are a KDVA member or not, you are invited – for free!
KDVA Campus Clubs are on college campuses in the United States and Korea. KCCs support KDVA’s mission of enhancing and supporting the ROK-U.S. Alliance and our Veterans on college campuses. Anyone can start a KCC and run the Campus Club as its President. KDVA HQ provides all the funds, social media support, and senior Alliance leaders to participate in person or by Zoom.
