l Interview Time in KU 22 I The Konkuk Bulletin March 2011 TED(Technology , Entertainment, Design) was founded in 1984. It is an international set of conferences for sharing ideas in the world. The conferences are now regularly held in United States, Europe and Asia including Korea to disseminate “Ideas Worth Spreading”. The con- ference is comprised of small talks of different topics - the ranges of  topics are wide for it can c over most studies in the world. The lecturers are given about 20 minutes to show their ideas to an audience in the most innovative ways. Past lectures include “Inconvenient truth” empha- sizing the seriousness of global warming by Al Gore, vice president of the United States. As the conference grows big and successful, it has drawn attention from people around the world. For those who would like to enjoy a TED-like experience outside of  America, TED issues the license to local organizations to administer the local TED. Organizations with the license officially can organize the events called “TEDx” which is equal to the one at headquarters. In Korea, since the TEDxMyeongdong con- ference was first held in 2009, more than 10 TEDx organizations includ- ing TEDxSookmyung, TEDxYonsei and TEDxSeoul are now registered in the Sapling Foundation (the owner of TED). Accordingly, as the first TEDxKonkuk conference will be launched March 2011, Konkukians can now enjoy this feast of ideas right here in Konkuk University . This January, Bulletiners met Lim Hyun-gyun and An Jeong-ki, co-director of TEDxKonkuk, at Student Union Building A. The club called “Lemusee” got the license from TED in 2010 and now they are organizing TEDxKonkuk.
