Attorney and Broadcaster Dongju Seo Delivers Character Lecture at Yeungjin College: "Do Not Fear Challenges"

Yeungjin College (President Choi Jaeyoung) organized a special lecture to mark the 100th session of its "Yeungjin Personality Development (Y-PD)" special lecture series in the first semester of this year.

This special lecture, held at 4:00 p.m. on May 14 in the International Seminar Room of the Information Building on campus, featured Dongju Seo, who is active as both a broadcaster and an attorney, as the guest speaker. She delivered a lecture on the topic "How to Solve the Puzzle of Life."

Attorney Dongju Seo, who is active as a broadcaster and writer, is giving a special lecture at Youngjinmun University.

The Y-PD special lecture series is part of Yeungjin College's character education program, designed to help students develop essential competencies such as social skills, creativity, and leadership. In particular, the 100th session symbolized the culmination of years of character education and was held with enthusiastic participation from students.

On this day, Attorney Dongju Seo moved the audience by sharing advice with young people based on her own career choices and life experiences. She spoke about setting life directions, regaining self-confidence, and maintaining an attitude unafraid of challenges.

Song Jimin, a second-year nursing student who attended the lecture, said, "Listening to the speaker's sincere story helped me believe in my potential again and gave me courage. It was a meaningful time for planning my future life."

This special lecture was made even more memorable by presenting Dongju Seo's challenge book, "A Pledge for Tomorrow's Me," to all 300 students who participated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Dongju Seo is an attorney in the United States who is also active as a writer and broadcaster. After living in San Francisco, she returned to Korea and is currently working at a domestic law firm. Her published works include "Dongju's Story" and "Stranger in San Francisco."

Since 2012, Yeungjin College has been implementing systematic character education through the "Yeungjin Personality Accreditation Program (Y-PAP)," striving to nurture individuals with communication skills, consideration for others, and a sense of community. Approximately 5,300 people have participated in Y-PAP to date, and the college regularly invites speakers for "character special lectures" in various fields.

A representative from Yeungjin College stated, "This 100th special lecture was more than just a lecture; it was a meaningful time for students to reflect on their character and vision for life. We will continue to expand these programs to nurture individuals with warm character as demanded by the times."

Meanwhile, the Y-PD special lecture series will be held three times during the first semester of 2025, with both online and offline sessions planned so that more students can participate regardless of time and location.
