   Respected members of the KoSQUA family.

   It is with a heart full of deep emotion and gratitude that I stand before you today to greet you as your new President.
Over the past years, our society has tirelessly strove for the improvement of healthcare quality and patient safety. These achievements are the fruit of the dedication of our former presidents and each and every one of our members.
Building upon this strong foundation, I envision the next two years not as a period of simply increasing activities, but as a time of sustainable and scalable growth. Here, ‘sustainability’ refers to standardization and reproducibility, while ‘scalability’ reflects the expansion of our reach and stronger connections with the broader healthcare community.
To achieve this, I would like to propose the following strategic directions:

   First, Academic advancement. Quality improvement and patient safety demand continuous innovation and new knowledge. I will do my utmost to ensure that our society serves as a platform for sharing the latest research and innovative cases, while leading the way in international academic exchange.

   Second, Reflecting voices from the Field. Quality improvement activities take place at the frontlines of hospitals and patient care. I will build a society that creates practical change by incorporating the voices of not only medical staff but also nurses, administrative personnel, patients, and their families.

   Third, Nurturing the next generation of talent. The future of KoSQUA lies in young researchers and clinicians. I will establish a foundation where they can take on challenges and grow to their full potential.

   Fourth, Strengthening Social Responsibility. By expanding cooperation with the government, related organizations, and the industry, we will contribute to the formulation of healthcare quality policies and standards. We will create tangible changes that the public can truly feel.

   Dear respected members,
As I take on the role of President, I begin a journey with you to create "Safer, Better, and More Human-Centered Healthcare." This path can never be completed by my efforts alone. Only when your wisdom and participation come together can our society take a new leap forward.
Over the next two years, I will learn with you, deliberate with you, and create results together with you. I will give my best to ensure that KoSQUA remains an institution we can all be proud of.

Thank you.
