A Mom&I Media Legacy · Est. 1999
Where Korean Ambition Meets American Opportunity
For 25 years, KORISE has connected Korean innovation, culture, and capital with the people who open doors in the United States — across government, business, and culture. Because the most valuable capital is human capital.
The KORISE is the next chapter of Mom&I — the Korean-American media house founded in 1999. What began as community journalism has grown into a platform connecting Korean culture, capital, and innovation to a global audience.
The Foundation of KORISE
For more than 25 years, KORISE’s founder has connected people, ideas, industries, and communities across borders.
Through media, storytelling, economic-development initiatives, and strategic partnerships, KORISE has built trusted relationships across government, business, healthcare, education, culture, and innovation.
Because the most valuable form of capital is not financial capital.
It is human capital.
