precisely because there is a complexity and even contingency deeply involved in the global politics so i believe we would be much better of the diverse array of the ideas even competing or conflicting ideas rather than single theoretical or analytical even numerative perspective. on that important note hopefully we will meet again in another course about south korea or about international relations of the asia pacific. and thank you again for your fantastic contribution to this course. we’d like to say thank you in korean altogether Gomap-sumnida(고맙습니다). thank you have a great day.

Congratulations on reaching the end of the course and thank you for your active participation.

In this section, I prepared the video with two teaching assistances to say a few words of appreciation and to wrap up the course.

First of all, I learned a lot not only from making and leading the course, but also watching you having a conversation about the issues covered. I am fully amazed at your various ideas and comments.

Second, I would like to make one point clear. I think we should remain very sensitive and even attentive to the complex phenomenon on the lining of international politics of 21st century.

On that important note, I hopefully want to meet again in another course about South Korea or international relations of Asia Pacific areas.

Have a great day and I wish you all the best in the future.
