According to a release, the contest was open to all Millburn High School students. The participants were asked to write an essay on the topic of “What Korea Means to Me.”

“We received a number of essays, so it wasn’t easy to select just 5 winners,” said Lisa Son, scholarship chair. “In the end, the prize essays best represented a broad range of topics related to Korea, including thoughts about its history and popular culture, and personal experiences that highlighted differences with Korean-American lifestyles.”

The winners of this year’s contest are sophomores Charlotte Greenberg, Hanna Hall and Woohee Han, junior Avery Lamp and senior Tony Hahn.
