The theme of the 2023 TEDxHongikU Event is "Breathing".

Breathing is the process of taking in oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide, and it is the act of being with and in harmony with something. To breathe with something means to understand it, to be fully one with it, to communicate with it.
Throughout our lives, we breathe with people, technology, culture, and many other things. What we've breathed in has shaped us and will continue to shape us. Our lives are enriched by the process of exhaling the old and inhaling the new.

This is what the 2023 TEDxHongikU Event aims to do: to give you insights into how we breathe with the world, so that you can reflect on yourself and examine the way forward.
