- Kang Kyung-hyun, Professor of Foreign Studies University, won the Yongjae Shinjin Academic Award
- Kang Kyung-hyun, an assistant professor of Oriental Studies, won the Yongjae Shinjin Academic Award at the 30th Yongjae Awards held at Yonsei University on March 7 (Thursday). The Yongjae Academic Award was established in 1995, the 100th anniversary of Yongjae's birthday, to commemorate the academic virtues of Dr. Baek Nak-jun, who served as Minister of Culture and Education and president of Yonsei University, and marks the 30th anniversary this year. Every year, it has been awarded to scholars who have made outstanding achievements in Korean studies and related fields, and since 2020, it has also presented the Yongjae Shinjin Academic Award. Professor Kang Kyung-hyun's book "The Philosophy of Toegye Yi Hwang's Realization of 至 and Self-Completion" (Hyean, 2022) by Professor Kang Kyung-hyun, who won the Yongjae Shinjin Academic Award, is a study that analyzes that Toegye Yi Hwang's philosophy, the great peak of Joseon Confucianism, revolves around the concept and thinking of "ri" and ultimately aims to realize 至. This study reveals that the basis of Toegye's philosophy has a value-oriented personality and suggests its implications. In other words, Toegye Yi Hwang's philosophy aims to provide a moral human basis, and thus comes to the conclusion that Toegye's philosophy is a self-completing discipline that realizes human nature. This study, which faithfully describes the spiritual foundation of Toegye's philosophy while aiming for social practice, stands out more because it contains an attempt to seriously seek humanities reflection and answers. His original interpretation was highly praised for expanding the discussion on Toegye in the field of Korean Confucian philosophy, and it is expected that he will take further steps as he is deepening his research on studying in Joseon and East Asian Neo-Confucianism through Toegye and 16th-century Joseon people and thoughts.

This event was planned as part of a teaching cluster program to contribute to the academic and academic succession generations through the establishment of a virtuous cycle of education and research while actively exchanging academic exchanges with excellent foreign scholars. At this event, Professor Sato conducted three lectures on issues in the history of advanced thought (Did Han Fei Tzu's view of humanity come from Xun Zi's voice theory?) the establishment of the academic field of modern Eastern philosophy (The birth of the academic field of Eastern philosophy in modern Japan), and the literary and ideological characteristics of Korea's "Three Kingdoms History" (literary and ideological characteristics of Kim Bu-sik's "Three Kingdoms History"). In addition, the second lecture was conducted by experts, including the presentation of Professor Kevin Lam. In this presentation, Professor Kevin Lam discussed the connection between Kitaro Nishida, an important scholar of modern Japanese philosophy, and the Confucian ethics and moral sensitists, focusing on the subject of emotion. Through three lectures covering the fields of Eastern philosophy and ideological history, it became a meaningful academic venue where students could learn the problem consciousness and methodology of research, as well as the insights and insights of ideological history. In particular, it was a valuable opportunity for students to intensively experience overseas scholarship and exchange over three days. In addition, the event, which was held three times, became a venue for international academic exchange by actively participating in discussions not only students and emerging researchers but also professors from various schools in Korea.
