KEI Podcasts

Now in its tenth year, KEI’s Opinion Leaders Seminar (OLS) is an annual gathering of some of the world’s foremost policymakers and scholars on the U.S.-South Korean alliance. In this episode, we highlight this year’s OLS event, if only to springboard into some of the most important topics related to U.S.-Korea affairs at the moment. The event was closed to the public and off the record to allow the participants an open environment in which to express their true opinions without inhibitions. Although we were not able to record the actual discourse (for obvious reasons), I was able to snag a few words with the American co-chair of the seminar, Alan Romberg, as well as with Dr. Kim Yongho, one of OLS’ Korean participants.
