4th Move On Fair – Celebrating Hope, Opportunity, and 10 Years of Ministry 2026

On April 25, 2026, LBTO proudly hosted the 4th Move On Fair at the Sejong University Conference Center in Seoul — and it was an unforgettable celebration filled with hope, encouragement, connection, and joy.

Hundreds of aged-out young adults and graduating high school students from orphanages gathered together alongside 42 organizations and more than 60 informational and support booths, creating one of the largest and most impactful Move On Fairs to date. Throughout the day, the conference center buzzed with excitement as participants explored resources, built new relationships, received guidance, and discovered opportunities designed to support their transition into independent adulthood.

The event featured inspiring performances, encouraging messages, engaging activities, meaningful conversations, delicious meals, gifts, prizes, and countless moments of laughter and connection. The atmosphere was vibrant and uplifting, and the joy throughout the room was truly unforgettable.

One especially meaningful highlight of this year’s Move On Fair was the celebration of LBTO’s 10th anniversary of ministry. Supporters and families traveled from the United States to join the celebration, making the event even more special. The “English Chat Zone with LBTO Friends from the U.S.” quickly became a favorite gathering place where participants enjoyed games, conversation, storytelling, cultural exchange, and genuine friendship.

We were deeply honored by the presence and encouragement of many distinguished guests and leaders, including National Assembly Representative Kim Mi-ae, Eun Seong-ho from the Ministry of Health and Welfare, Kim Yosep from the Korea Child Welfare Association, Son I-seon from the National Center for the Rights of the Child, Steve Morrison of MPAK, and Oh Chang-hwa of the Korean Adoption Families Association. Their heartfelt messages, encouragement, and updates regarding current resources and policies brought tremendous value and inspiration to everyone in attendance.

During the event, LBTO also recognized several remarkable young adults and volunteers through special awards honoring leadership, volunteer service, and personal transformation. Their stories served as powerful reminders of resilience, growth, and the life-changing impact of encouragement and opportunity.

At its heart, the Move On Fair is about far more than booths and programs. It is about helping aged-out young adults feel seen, valued, connected, and hopeful for the future. For many participants, the event offered not only practical resources, but also a sense of belonging and the reassurance that they are not alone on their journey.

We extend our deepest gratitude to every participating organization, volunteer, sponsor, donor, supporter, and prayer partner who helped make this incredible day possible. Your generosity, dedication, and compassion created an environment filled with hope, dignity, encouragement, and community.

As we celebrated 10 years of ministry together, we were once again reminded of God’s faithfulness and provision every step of the way.

The 4th Move On Fair was truly a beautiful reflection of what can happen when a community comes together to uplift and empower the next generation.
