The Korean Bar Association (KBA) is pleased to announce that the 2019 IBA Annual Conference will be hosted in Seoul, South Korea. As the KBA and the International Bar Association (IBA) have continued a mutual cooperative relationship in bringing various opportunities for our respective members to expand our legal professions internationally, the IBA has decided to host its Annual Conference of 2019 in Seoul City with support from the KBA and the Seoul Metropolitan Government.
