Furthermore, the successful cases of Korean deployment activities will be introduced as well as the Muslim lifestyle, Middle Eastern socio-cultural characteristics including wedding and funeral, and overall the general Muslim consciousness will be discussed through the perspective of a commander of the deployment.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”Review”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”10008″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”10009″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”10010″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Colonel Nam-Gyu Ham from the ROK-US Combined Forces Command described his firsthand experiences in the Middle East at the fifth colloquium held by SNUAC West Asia Center.

Colonel Nam-Gyu Ham examined how \u2018religion\u2019 is much more than a religious community but is connected to the social welfare system in Middle Eastern societies comprised of various sects based on diverse ethnic groups. The resulting religious conflicts as well as the current state of affairs relating to Korean deployment in Lebanon were also mentioned in this colloquium.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
