The atmosphere of the event, with everyone, especially immigrants, coming together and singing, made me feel like I was in Korea. And it was as if the Korean spirit permeated me. I experienced the excitement of 30 years ago, thanks to you!

The arts initiatives I’ve taken part in foster a sense of belonging and solidarity across diverse cultural backgrounds, making them truly accessible to everyone. As an immigrant myself, it brings me immense joy to witness the strength of Woori as a community-based organization. Woori Center plays a vital role in building relationships between generations through enriching cultural heritage.

Learning the Janggu and participating in Woori Madang activities at Woori Center has revitalized my daily life. The rhythm of the Janggu energizes me and helps relieve stress, while also improving my focus. Most importantly, I’ve gained pride in our traditional music and found joy in connecting with amazing people.
