Bill > SR40

This Resolution honors Dr. Kiro John Yun for his recent appointment as President of the Federation of Midwest Korean American Associations, a nonprofit organization that supports Korean Americans and promotes cultural exchange between Korea and the United States. The resolution acknowledges Dr. Yun's distinguished 30-year career as an otolaryngologist (an ENT physician and surgeon) in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, and highlights his dedication to his patients and the Korean American community. As president, Dr. Yun will represent 400,000 Korean Americans across 13 states, a role that coincides with significant anniversaries in US-South Korea relations and Korean immigration to the United States. The resolution commends Dr. Yun for his service and wishes him well in strengthening the relationship between Korea and the United States, and the Senate will adjourn in his honor.
