As a child in South Korea, Ban Ki-moon wrote a letter to the UN secretary-general regarding the Hungarian uprising against Russia. A few years later in the US, he met President John F Kennedy. From then, Ban desired to work for peace. This title discusses how his further success in these areas attempts to keep the UN relevant in the complex world.
