One of Dosan's biggest dreams was the Hung Sa Dan also known as the Young Korean Academy. He created this organization with a group of Korean patriots and intellectuals who represented each of the eight provinces of Korea. This organization was officially launched on May 13, 1913 in the city of San Francisco. The headquarters moved to Los Angeles and then to Seoul. It still exists today with many branches in Korea and in major cities in the United States. The Hung Sa Dan - Young Korean Academy was created to build young people of good mind, good spirit and good health. It was a plan to develop young people with good character. These people were to build a network of trust and sincerity in all they would do. The result of this program was to have quality people capable of becoming leaders of the Korean nation once it was freed from the Japanese occupation. This group was to be the foundation for the new independent democratic nation of Korea. This includes a Chronology of Dosan Ahn Chang-ho and Heungsdahn. The purpose of this work was to provide a source of inspiration for current and future generations that the American dream is waiting for any Korean American who wants to take hold of it. It also embodies several meaningful objects of Heungsadahn, also known as Young Korean Academy and its founder Dosan ahn Chang-ho for the commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of Heungsadahn. It also has as an objective to maintain the cross-cultural legacy of empowering citizens around the world. This book will guide readers through the journey of how the Korean American community came to fruition starting with its birth a century ago when Koreans immigrated to Hawaii. It also recognized the new challenges Korean Americans will face as a growing community in America.
