Kyungsung University

Officially opened in March 2006, the Kyungsung Language Center (KLC) is a Korean education center for foreigners developed as a subsidiary agency of the External Affairs Department. Kyungsung University has continued to develop educational programs and textbooks for Korean education since 2003. Kyungsung University has developed 4 textbooks, a DVD title and a website for Korean education. The new dormitory building, Nuri International Dormitory, was constructed at the end of Feb 2006 and the KLC classrooms are located inside.

Over the last four years, KLC has developed quantitatively as well as qualitatively. Since 2006, KLC has taught many foreign students (from China, Taiwan, America, Britain, Japan, Vietnam, Mongolia, and Russia) who successfully completed the language classes and became a student in KSU. KLC has four terms (Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter) of regular courses, offering a total of 200 hours (20 hours a week / 800 hours a year) over a period of 10 weeks. In an effort to make foreign students involved in the language, KLC has also added classes about the Korean culture. Students can personally experience aspects of Korean culture such as Korean food, Taekwondo, traditional music, in particular, Samulnori, and much more.
