On October 9th 2020, the 12th Daesoon Literature Contest Awards Ceremony was held as a video conference.

In his congratulatory remark, Tae-Yeol Lee, Director of the Religious Research & Edification Department, said, “Due to COVID-19, it was proposed that we not hold this event in person.” “If through Daesoon Literature you can convey your own experiences in a way that incorporates emotion and a strong will to practice, your writings will help spread Daesoon Truth.”
