Dear members and colleagues,

It is a pleasure to invite you to 2022 the 39th Korean Society for Sexual Medicine and Andrology and the 22nd Korean Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health annual meeting. This meeting will be held as an international meeting with the 6th International Joint Meeting of Pan-Asian Men's Health Forum, which started in 2015.

Even in a situation where all academic activities are restricted due to COVID-19, KSSMA have completed most of the meetings successfully last year, including two regular meetings. I really appreciate for all your attentions and supports to us. Since the 3rd vaccination of COVID-19 has increasing gradually in these days, we are expecting to hold this meeting in an off-line way in April so as to invite many members. I sincerely hope that it can be held as an off-line meeting, but we ask for your generous understanding as it may be held as an on-off hybrid depending on the situation.

On the first day of the meeting in April 1, it will be operated as a half-day program in the afternoon and we will have an in-depth discussion dealing a timely clinical topic with world-class scholars in the fields of sexual medicine and men's Health. After the meeting is over, we have planned a small event to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the founding of the KSSMA, so I'll appreciate for you to attend.

The second day of the meeting in April 2 is the KSSMA spring meeting and we will share the latest knowledge on the pathophysiology and treatment of various diseases in the field of sexual medicine and men's health. Especially, this meeting will be more meaningful as Professor Jong Kwan Park, who has contributed to the development of sexual medicine and andrology, has prepared a lecture to commemorate his retirement.

I hope all of you are doing well and staying healthy, and hope to see many people at the off-line meeting.

Best regards,

Soo Woong Kim,
President, Korean Society for Sexual Medicine and Andrology
