Dongmyung University Military Science students Lee Dong-geun and Jung Seo-yoon recently participated in the Ulleungdo and Dokdo exploration to support the bid for the 2030 Busan World Expo.

About 80 participants, including members of the Korea Freedom Federation Busan Branch and citizens, took part in this exploration, which was conducted to pray for the successful bid for the 2030 Busan World Expo and to reaffirm their determination to protect Dokdo.

Student Lee Dong-geun said, “As an officer candidate, I consider it a great honor to set foot on our land, Dokdo, with my own two feet,” adding, “It was a special experience as it was the first attempt that succeeded in landing.”

Student Jung Seo-yoon said, “I am overjoyed to have shouted that Dokdo is our land on behalf of the school at the site,” and pledged, “I will cherish this experience deeply in my heart and become a true soldier of proud Republic of Korea.”

Participants of the Ulleungdo and Dokdo exploration, wishing for the successful bid of the 2030 Busan World Expo, are taking a group commemorative photo.

During the 2 nights and 3 days trip from May 24 to 26, on the first day, they held a resolution and performance to support the bid for the 2030 Busan World Expo targeting tourists.
