Each year, the Korea Economic Institute of America (KEI) hosts Korean American Day, a premier luncheon to celebrate the achievements and contributions of the Korean American community. For 2015, KEI is privileged to recognize four Korean pioneers and leaders in sports.  Those honored are Toby Dawson (Olympic Medalist), Jhoon Rhee (Father of American Tae Kwon Do), Jim Paek (Stanley Cup Winner) and Hines Ward (not pictured; NFL Superbowl Champion and MVP).  To learn more about Korean American Day and other KEI programs, please visit www.keia.org.
