Description

At Korea Pro’s July Seoul Circuit dinner, leading China scholar John Delury joined Jeongmin Kim, Executive Director of Korea Risk Group, for a timely conversation on China’s strategic outlook under South Korea’s new president, Lee Jae-myung.



The discussion explored Beijing’s past playbook for dealing with Seoul, how U.S. and European allies view South Korea amid shifting global alignments, and how a second Trump administration could reshape the region’s security dynamics.
