The Washington state chapter of the Korean American Coalition (KAC) presented CEO of Paldo World Brian Park and KoreAm Journal Editor-in-Chief James Y. Ryu the Rocky Kim Pioneer Awards at the 2008 KAC National Convention Gala Dinner, Sept. 26.
Yong Su “Rocky” Kim was an inspiring community leader who relentlessly fostered tolerant race relations between Korean Americans and other ethnic communities located in the Puget Sound area. After his passing in 2000, the Korean American Professionals Society (KAPS) named its Pioneer Award in memory of him.
Like Kim, both Park and Ryu possess the leadership and desire to serve the community.♦
