    TLDR The Seoul International Dermatology Symposium was a successful event that highlighted new dermatology treatments and fostered international relations.
    The Seoul International Dermatology Symposium, held from May 11 to 14, 1995, in Seoul, Korea, was a significant event with over 300 participants, including dermatologists and residents from Korea, the USA, and other countries. The symposium featured two plenary sessions, six symposia, two free communication sessions, a case presentation, and lectures, focusing on the latest developments in dermatology, such as new treatment modes and lasers. Notable presentations included Dr. Jouni Uitto's work on the molecular genetics of the cutaneous basement membrane zone and its implications for dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, Dr. Yoon-Kee Park's review on the pathogenesis and treatment of vitiligo, and Dr. Young C. Kauh's new approaches to treating melasma. The event was organized by the departments of dermatology of Yonsei University College of Medicine in Korea and Jefferson Medical College in the USA, enhancing international relations between the two institutions. The symposium concluded with a farewell party featuring traditional Korean performances and tours, leaving participants with a positive impression and anticipation for future meetings.
