Dear Colleagues and Friends,

We are delighted to extend a warm invitation to KSGE Days 2026, which will be held from Friday, September 4 to Saturday, September 5, 2026, at Lotte Hotel Seoul, Korea.

Since its establishment in 1976, Korean Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (KSGE) has led advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases in Korea for the past 50 years, playing a pivotal role in the academic development of endoscopic medicine and the enhancement of clinical safety. Beyond national borders, the Society has continuously expanded its international academic and research networks through the organization of global scientific meetings, collaborative research initiatives, and close cooperation with experts worldwide, thereby contributing to the global advancement of gastrointestinal endoscopy.

KSGE Days 2026 is a significant international scientific meeting commemorating the 50th anniversary of our Society. Distinguished researchers and clinicians from Korea and abroad will gather to share the latest scientific achievements and clinical experiences, and to engage in in-depth discussions on the future of gastrointestinal endoscopy. This congress is expected to serve as a valuable platform for the cross-border exchange of knowledge and expertise, while laying a strong foundation for sustainable international collaboration.

We extend a special and heartfelt welcome to our overseas participants traveling great distances to join us. We sincerely hope that KSGE Days 2026 will provide not only meaningful academic exchange, but also an opportunity to experience the excellence of Korean endoscopic medicine and culture.

The active participation and support of our members and colleagues from around the world will greatly contribute to the success of this congress. We look forward to welcoming you to KSGE Days 2026 and to meeting you in Seoul in September 2026.
