The PSU KORE (Korean Outreach, Research, and Education) Initiative is a newly launched program at Portland State University dedicated to advancing Korean Studies on our campus. This initiative is made possible through the generous support of Peter and Helen Chun Endowment for Korean Studies at PSU.
Peter and Helen Chun
Born and raised in Korea, Peter and Helen moved to Oregon in 1964 to pursue their studies in the United States. Since then, Oregon has been home to their family and business. Over the years, they supported the Korean American community, serving as President of the Korean Society of Oregon—the largest nonprofit organization for Korean Americans in the state—and as Chair/President of the Oregon Korea Foundation. They believe that Portland State University is the ideal place to expand learning opportunities in Korean Studies, given our deep ties to both the city and the state as the only urban research university in Oregon.
