Language<br />

Programs<br />

Opportunities to learn the Korean language are increasingly<br />

many as Korean grows as a language of economic, political<br />

and cultural importance. In Seoul, many universities offer<br />

Korean language classes for foreigners. Some programs, such as<br />

Yonsei University’s Korean Language Institute, have long histories<br />

and are quite prestigious. Others are newer and you should inquire<br />

into program specifics before applying. Even in the countryside, many<br />

regional universities and colleges now offer Korean language classes<br />

— if you’d like to learn the language in a small-town setting, it’s<br />

something you might look into. If you’re feeling really confident in<br />

your Korean skills, you can even try your hand at the Korean<br />

Proficiency Exam.<br />

Korean is not a particularly easy language to learn, but if you put<br />

in the time and effort,<br />

learning it can be a fun<br />

and rewarding experience<br />

and greatly improve the<br />

quality of your experience<br />

in Korea. If you<br />

would like to learn<br />

Korean, there are a number<br />

of programs available<br />

to you in Seoul.<br />
