Dear esteemed and beloved members of the The Korean Association of Robotic Surgeons.

Serving as president of the Korean Society of Surgical Robotic Surgery is a great honour and responsibility. I sincerely appreciate the dedicated efforts of the previous presidents and members, and I look forward to working together for a brighter future for the Society.

Korea is making world-class achievements in surgery, especially robotic surgery. Our Society is leading innovation in various fields, such as hepatopancreatic, breast, thyroid-endocrine, colorectal, and gastrointestinal surgery. These achievements are due to the passion and tireless efforts of our members.

As president of the Korean Society for Robotic Surgery, the best thing I can do is to promote academic advancement and collaboration among members. I will endeavour to research and apply new technologies in surgery and robotic surgery. My goal is to advance robotic surgery technology in various surgical fields to increase patient care effectiveness and improve medical care.

Our Society is a family-like community that grows and develops together. We aim to strengthen communication and cooperation among members and share knowledge and experience. We need your active participation and support. Let's work together to bring the Korean Society of Surgery and Robotic Surgery to a world-class level.

Finally, I sincerely wish for the prosperity of the Society and the health and good fortune of its members. Thank you for your continued support and participation.
