DEADLINE: Korea-U.S. Journalists Exchange
The East-West Center's annual Korea-United States Journalists Exchange normally sends six to eight Korean journalists to the United States and six to eight U.S. journalists to South Korea to meet with government and business leaders, academics, non-governmental organizations and other members of the community. The program seeks to introduce journalists to the political, security, economic, cultural and social issues of each country.
The East-West Center is pleased to announce that applications are open for the 2025 Korea-United States Journalists Exchange (KUSJE), a 10-day dialogue, study and travel program scheduled September 9-19, 2025.
This year the East-West Center celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Korea-US Journalists Exchange. With a focus on “Internal uncertainty amidst external challenges: US-Korea relations in 2025,” this exchange will look at the current issues related to US-Korea relations amidst uncertain leadership in South Korea and the return of the President Donald J. Trump Administration in the United States, including the strategic Korea-US alliance, the state of the US-Japan-ROK relationship, strategic cooperation, trade relations, and the continued threat from North Korea.
Six Korean journalists will travel to Washington, DC and Atlanta, Georgia; and six US journalists will travel to Seoul, Busan, and the Demilitarized Zone between North and South Korea. Following these study tours, all of the journalists will meet for a one-day final dialogue in South Korea to report on their travel experiences and perspectives, and exchange opinions on how media coverage of US-Korea issues can be improved.
