Blumenthal has met with Jo in the past while promoting the group's annual holiday musical events - one of which took place in Wallingford.
"The Korean community here is a source of great skill and hard work as well as faith and I'm looking forward to meeting one of the leaders when he comes here along with Pastor Peter Jo," Blumenthal says.
The group's annual musical performance will take place virtually this year due to the pandemic.
