For decades, Global Peace Foundation (GPF) Chairman Hyun Jin Preston Moon has worked to advance the peaceful reunification of the Korean Peninsula through the guiding philosophy of Hongik Ingan, meaning “to broadly benefit humanity.”

His journey is documented in Korean Dream: The Bold Journey, which highlights his years of advocacy and steadfast support for a free and unified Korea rooted in shared identity, cultural heritage, democratic values, and human dignity.

The book draws on Dr. Moon’s global peacebuilding efforts, international development initiatives, and advocacy for Korean reunification as a model for advancing peace beyond the peninsula. It also offers a perspective on how Korea’s structural challenges can be addressed through shared community values, civic consciousness, and citizen engagement.
