Hanyang University’s Institute of Chinese Studies is hosting an international student forum about the network between South Korea and China on Thursday, school officials said Monday.

The topic of the forum will be “Humanities exchange between Korea and China, and the role of students from the two countries.” School officials said the event is a follow-up to the leaders of the two countries agreeing to expand student communications and cooperation at last year’s summit.

“I expect students of Korea and China will bridge further cooperation between the two countries, and that the forum will host discussions about joint prosperity and peace in Northeast Asia,” said Moon Heung-ho, director of the Institute of Chinese Studies.

Hanyang University chief Lee Young-moo will be present at the forum along with Shin Yong-han, the chairman of the Presidential Committee on Young Generation and Lee Hyun-ju, secretary-general of the Northeast Asian History Foundation.
