Gemini Director Jen Lotz, Chief Scientist John Blakeslee, and astronomer André-Nicolas Chené participated in the Korea Giant Magellan Telescope (K-GMT) Users Meeting from February 13-16, 2019, at the KASI headquarters in Daejeoung, Korea. This was the first such event held after Korea’s instatement as a full participant in the Gemini international Partnership. Gemini staff answered questions about Gemini capabilities and proposal opportunities. Korean astronomers presented a wide array of exciting science results from Gemini and other facilities, including the study of bulge globular clusters, outflows from active galactic nuclei, and the properties of high-redshift galaxy clusters.
