Being an American overseas means celebrating the holidays a long way from the tables we grew up around. Thanksgiving is a day for gratitude and for making room for one more person, and there's no better way to spend it in Seoul than together.
This year has asked a lot of us, but it has also given us far more to be thankful for. You've shown up for each other and for the country we love, all from thousands of miles away. Before the year ends, we want to pause, share a meal, and say thank you.
Whether you've been with DAROK for years or you're just finding us, this is the night for you. Everyone is welcome.
DAROK is providing the turkeys and mains. Side dishes are potluck, so bring a favorite from your own family table. Bring food, and bring friends!
If you attend, please consider making a donation to Democrats Abroad South Korea. Even a recurring donation of $3 goes a long way. Your support keeps this community strong and this work going.
