Anne van Assche
President

Hi everyone!

My name is Anne, and I am the Chair of Dokkaebi this year! As chair, I will be the one leading our association, our board and board meetings, as well as our General Assemblies, representing the association alongside the rest of the board. Of course, this year is extra special because it marks our very first lustrum year! It is a true honor to serve as your *Praeses* during such a significant year. I can't wait to celebrate this milestone together with the members and the board! I am also a member of the KoCo and KCC committees this year. Naturally, I hope to attend as many Dokkaebi activities as possible.

I am currently a third-year Master’s student in Korean Studies, and I am also pursuing a Master’s in Global Asian Studies. I also work at the university these days, so you’ll find me at the Lipsius building even more often. In my free time, I like to unwind with a good series or movie, preferably with a cup of coffee or tea. I also enjoy gaming, as well as making and listening to music. I love going to concerts and cafés, and I experiment with all kinds of recipes whenever I have the time. My favorite things in life are family and friends, chocolate, music, the color purple, good food, my pets, and good company.

I am really looking forward to making this year extra festive and creating wonderful new memories together!
