Good afternoon. Let me start today’s briefing.

On January 9, Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha will host a welcoming ceremony for the foreign service officers who joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 2018.

The welcoming ceremony will bring together those who have been newly appointed to Foreign Ministry posts after completing “the program for foreign service officer candidates” and former officials of other government agencies who have joined the Foreign Ministry through its public recruitment procedure.

Thank you.
