H&H Lawyers at the 32nd IAKL Annual Conference in Seoul


 

We are pleased to share highlights from our recent participation at the 32nd Annual Conference of the International Association of Korean Lawyers (IAKL), held at Korea University in Seoul last week.

 

Our lawyers - Ken Hong, John Kim, James Jung, Bella Cho, and Laura Oh - attended this global gathering of legal professionals. Two of our colleagues were invited to speak:

  • Ken Hong on “The Braiding of Legal Education and Legal Professions Across Multiple Jurisdictions”.
  • Bella Cho on “How to Deal with ESG Factors Embedded in Business”.


We are especially proud to announce that our Managing Partner, Ken Hong received the Moon In Gu Award at the Gala Dinner.

The Moon In Gu Award, named after the late Dr. Moon In Koo, founder of IAKL and past President of the Korea and Seoul Bar Associations, is one of the organisation’s highest honours. It is presented to lawyers who have shown exceptional dedication to advancing the Korean legal community globally, protecting the rights of overseas Koreans, and strengthening international legal cooperation.

 

Ken reflected on this recognition: “Receiving the Moon In Gu Award is a humbling honour. Dr. Moon’s vision of connecting legal communities worldwide continues to inspire, and I am grateful to contribute to that legacy.”

Ken’s recognition is both a personal achievement and a testament to H&H LAWYERS’s commitment to global legal excellence. You can read more about the award in Legal Times.

The IAKL Conference continues to provide valuable opportunities to share expertise, build international networks, and deliver insights that benefit our clients worldwide.
