On behalf of the Korean Hip Society, it is a great honor to invite and welcome you to the 2025 International Congress of the Korean Hip Society, which will take place at Vista Walkerhill Hotel in Seoul, Korea, from May 8th to May 10th.
The Korean Hip Society is not only the oldest academic society of the Korean Orthopaedic Association, with a proud 44-year history and tradition, but also the best society because of the strong bond and collaboration of the members. And we made great advancements from a domestic research group into an internationally influential organization with enthusiastic research and participation of the members.
We hope ICKHS, the 39th annual meeting of the Korean Hip Society, will be held in May, the queen of the season, and will provide a great opportunity for domestic and foreign participants to present and discuss many new developments in technologies and knowledge related to the field of hip surgery.
Enjoy the congress and the beautiful spring of Seoul, the heart of Korea. I hope to see you in May.
Sincerely yours
