SCHOOL  INTRODUCTION

A dream come true!

Let’s let people know about Korea! I finally established “BestFriend Korean Study Abroad & Korean Language & Culture Center Study-room,” a place for foreigners and gyopos to learn the language and experience the culture at the same time!
After I came back to Korea from studying abroad, I felt a special patriotism towards Korea and was able to see Korea objectively. I established Best Friend Korea Study Abroad Institute to lead today’s globalized world in learning the Korean language. After that, BestFriend Korean Language & Culture Center, and a 1:1 conversational tutoring program for Koreans and foreigners to have language exchange were established.
