  Mr. COFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Korean 
Language news service, Weekly Focus, on its 10th Anniversary, and by 
extension President Hyun Joo Kim, and her entire staff. I am proud to 
represent the largest Korean community in Colorado in my Congressional 
District. Throughout the ten years that Weekly Focus has been running, 
the service has worked tirelessly to not only represent their 
community, but to also connect Coloradoans by offering a way to 
communicate and learn from each other.
  Since its founding in 2006, Weekly Focus has grown to be the biggest 
and most influential Korean language newspaper in Colorado. Thanks to 
this tremendous news service, Korean-Americans and Coloradoans have a 
dependable source of news that features a weekly publication of 128 
pages.

  Hyun Joo Kim's passion and diligence, as well as that of her staff, 
has allowed Weekly Focus to develop and become an important part of our 
community. By creating a reliable newspaper with quality articles, 
Weekly Focus has undoubtedly improved Korean-American representation 
within the media of Colorado as well as residents living in the 6th 
Congressional District.
  I would like to extend my sincere congratulations to the Weekly Focus 
newspaper and its entire staff for their hard work and dedication these 
past 10 years.
