During Q&A sessions, the audience asked many questions to the presenters and the panel speakers, making the Final Forum very engaging and interesting from beginning to end. Notably, one Q&A session nearly became a debate when a member of the audience asked the 6th KASC Peace and Security Roundtable to give more specifics about its new recommended policy and the meaning of “trust politik” towards North Korea. This was a great opportunity for the delegates to further interact with the audience, and show the hard work and passion they had put into theirs roundtables throughout the month-long conference.
The Forum was followed by a networking reception. Delegates enjoyed a delicious buffet with alumni, guests, and supporters. On behalf of KASC, ISC would like to sincerely thank KITA for making this Final Forum such a success.
