President's Message The Society of Korean Practical Arts Education Research

Greetings to all members of The Society of Korean Practical Arts Education Research!

Greetings from the new President of SKPAER. First of all, we wish to give a warm welcome to the former presidents of this society that are here with us today, Jeong Seong-bong, Ryu Cheong-san, and Seo Woo-seok,

We thank them for all their efforts to empower this society from the time of its birth as The Society of Korean Practical Arts Education Research, and over it's past 25 years of existence until now. The former presidents of this society, through their strong commitment, have left many achievements along the way during their time in office. They surpass fears that perhaps none of us can imagine in order to make the contributions that they make.

I believe that in order for any association or society to grow and develop, a founding spirit which is passed on is essential. On this premise our society for practical arts education research was founded. It is my belief that by gathering with many people who have a deep affection for the subject of practical arts, and through research and discussion together, The Society of Korean Practical Arts Education Research can be further developed.

I will, together with all the officers of the society, start out with a newheart and mind. We ask for your full-hearted interest and participation. And wish all of you, our members, abundant health and happiness throughout this year. Thank you.

The Society of Korean Practical Arts Education Research
