Korean Concert Society was supported solely through the contributions of private donors who shared our goal of presenting world-class musicians in Washington, DC and supporting the next generation of classical musicians of Korean heritage.

Until 2025, Korean Concert Society was a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Today, the Korean Concert Society Prize administered by Young Concert Artists carries forward its legacy of supporting the Korean diaspora and international understanding through excellence in music.
