Youth International Peace Concert

I directed the 2023 and 2024 Youth International Peace Forum & Concert, bringing together students from international schools to honor veterans and promote peace. These events included the 2023 Peace Forum and the 2024 Unforgetting the Forgotten Forum, where I sought to bridge history and youth culture through music. I reimagined the lyrics of Lady Gaga’s “I’ll Never Love Again” to create “I’ll Never Forget,” a tribute song to the overlooked struggles of Korean War veterans, and composed an original piece, “For the Forgotten,” inspired by Andra Day’s Rise Up. By blending historical storytelling with music, I aimed to make the legacy of veterans more accessible and meaningful to younger audiences.
