On November 26, a special lecture titled "Aftermath of the U.S. Elections" was held at Sanghuh Hall, Konkuk University. Penn State sociology professors Sam Richards and Laurie Mulvey delivered the lecture.

Audiences were comprised of two groups, offline and online. More than 80 Konkuk students attended the event, while the others enjoyed the lecture online beyond the physical barrier of time and space through livestreaming on YouTube. The discussion explored the social and political implications of the recent US election, providing insightful analysis and encouraging meaningful dialogue.
