인사말
Greetings from the BM CREATE IT Cultural Foundation
Founded in May 2021 under the "Act on the Establishment and Operation of Public Interest Corporations," BM CREATE IT Cultural Foundation is a specialized arts organization dedicated to promoting Korean culture in the United States.
Our foundation serves as a bridge to support Korean-American artists across various fields, including exhibitions, artwork collection, research, education, and digital services. By doing so, we aim to position Korean culture as not only an engaging and meaningful cultural leader but also as a creative educational hub that fosters innovation and growth. Additionally, we seek to expand opportunities for artistic enjoyment through the development of cultural products, exhibitions, and content creation in collaboration with Korean artists. Our efforts are dedicated to managing Korean cultural programs—ranging from performances to exhibitions—within the United States, while striving to present a true and positive image of Korean culture on the global stage. Through these initiatives, we aim to make Korean culture more accessible and appealing to people of all backgrounds.
Moving forward, our foundation and its members are committed to ensuring that Korean culture continues to thrive and be cherished worldwide. We will focus on nurturing talent, developing and distributing rich cultural content, and fostering meaningful dialogue with diverse communities across the globe. Ultimately, we hope to make art a source of strength and hope for immigrant lives, providing a foundation for inspiration and connection.
With unwavering dedication, we will continue to work toward naturally integrating Korean culture into the world and creating lasting impacts for future generations.

"I wish for our country to become the most beautiful in the world, not the most powerful. Having suffered from the pain of invasion, I do not desire my country to invade others. It is enough that our wealth sustains our well-being and that our strength is sufficient to defend against aggression. What I long for, above all, is the boundless power of a noble culture. For culture brings happiness to ourselves and, in turn, extends that happiness to others."
– Kim Gu
나는 우리나라가 세계에서 가장 아름다운 나라가 되기를 원한다. 가장 부강한 나라가 되기를 원하지 않는다. 내가 남의 침략에 가슴이 아팠으니 내 나라가 남을 침략하는 것을 원치 않는다.우리의 부력이 우리의 생활을 풍족히 할만 하고 우리가 강력히 남의 침략을 막을만하면 족하다.오직 한없이 가지고 싶은 것은 높은 문화의 힘이다.문화의 힘은 우리 자신을 행복하게 하고 나아가서 남에게 행복을 주기 때문이다. - 김구선생

눈길을 걸어갈 때 어지럽게 걷지 말기를, 오늘 내가 걸어간 길이 훗날 다른 사람의 이정표가 되리니

"New life is born only through labor pains, spring arrives after the cold snaps, and dawn follows after the darkness."
산고를 겪어야 새 생명이 태어나고 , 꽃샘추위를 겪어야 봄이 오며, 어둠이 지나야 새벽이 온다.
