On December 7, actor Jang Keun Suk attended the appointment ceremony because he is nominated as honorary ambassador of 2012 Seoul Nuclear Security Summit which will be held on the 26th and 27th of March next year.

2012 Seoul Nuclear Security Summit is a place where over 50 countries and various international organizations appear and discuss about the prevention and countermeasures of nuclear terrorism.

Previously in November, singer Park Jung Hyun and child actress Jin Ji Hee, Wang Seok Hyun attended the appointment ceremony. In this ceremony, Kim Sung Hwan, the leader of the preparation and planning for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade asked Jang Keun Suk to make the importance of nuclear security widely known and presented him an appointment certificate.

Jang revealed, “I was in deep sorrow when the Fukushima nuclear accident happened, leaving an indelible scar in Japan. From that incident, I thought deeply about what the consequences would be if someone commits terrorism at one of the nuclear power plants. Therefore, I will alert people beyond borders about the importance of nuclear security. I hope many people pay attention and participate.”

Kim Sung Hwan, the leader of the preparation and planning revealed, “I expect that appointing Jang Keun Suk as honorary ambassador, who is supported by many people and who has a global image, will successfully let the people know about the importance of this summit and nuclear security in a friendly and heartfelt way.”
