Some of you may know the history of TRIVIUM and why I love this publication so much, but many of you perhaps not. 

Well in February of 2008, I was asked to create a newsletter for the foreigners in Siheung. Well after meeting with a number of teachers in my city, people involved with writing and publishing other books and newspapers I felt that a short newsletter might not give me the freedom to address the issues that foreigners in Siheung, Gyeonggi-do, and all across Korea could (and do) face.

So after another round of meetings with experts in the field of education and publication the first issue of TRIVIUM was launched in late March early April.

The name "TRIVIUM" comes from an ancient word meaning the study of grammar, rhetoric, and logic. A name I think perfectly frames this wonderful publication.
