“In my opinion, even sharing one’s thoughts in small meetings is crucial element for self-development” / “ITAC5 in 2020 was a time to look back on myself. It was an opportunity for me to realize and confirm that my path was right.” /“Meeting people who understand my job lets me get confident about it. That’s the reason to meet and discuss with others.” – Yongse An/Hodong Lee/Soohye Jang
