Professor Hyochul Myung(주: 명효철 교수 회신거부)
Vice-President
Korea Institute of Advanced Study


Dear Professor Myung

I have just received disturbing information about the case of Dr. MyungHo Kim and his difficulties with Sungkyunkwan University where he was Assistant Professor of Mathematics.

I know from my contacts with Korean scientists the enormous strides that have taken place in Korea and the efforts you are making to establish scientific contacts with the international community. I have supported such moves, particularly when I was President of the Royal Society.

In the intersts of the international standing and reputation of Korean science, it would be helpful if you could look into the merits of Dr. Kim's case and give him the appropriate support.

Yours sincerely, Michael Atiyah
