Jungeun Lee is a freshman at Hanyang University, pursuing a major in chemistry. Living in Korea for 14 years, she learned about North Korea’s humanitarian situation for years. In elementary school, she started to participate in small but meaningful activities, such as the Piggy Bank Campaign and knitting scarves for the escapees. After witnessing their hardships and as a young Korean interested in science, she believed that science education would be a fundamental building block for reconstruction. Through the HRNK internship, she hopes to gain more in-depth knowledge about North Korea and further aims to contribute to the Korean unification process as a science lecturer.
