[Sookmyung Women's University/Sookmyung] Sookmyung Women's University PR Film (ENG)

The story of Sookmyung Women's University began with the imperial family of the Korean empire 100 years ago. In 1906, Myungshin girls' school opened as the first Korean national women’s private school, Sookmyung. In a period when women had difficulty receiving an education, the emperor of the Korean empire, Gojong and empress Sunheun thought our country’s future depended on women's education. The belief in national salvation through women’s education is the spirit and the power which founded Sookmyung leading the Republic of Korea from its ancient imperial history. Whenever our country has taken a step forward, Sookmyung has shined brightly, subtly evolving. Sookmyung is the gentle power to change the world.
