In addition, through this workshop, LA police officials who have been solely in charge of public security in LA County and LA City can broaden their understanding of Korean culture and immigrant society. The workshop has been evaluated to play an important role in preventing and responding to disadvantages that Koreans may receive due to cultural differences and anti-Asian racism.
