On 15th of September, 2023 – The Korean Language and Culture Program Studies once again held offline lectures in collaboration with the Korea Foundation. Every semester, UGM Korean Program Studies routinely holds online lectures with the Korea Foundation and several other universities. The Korea Foundation is currently starting to routinely return to UGM every year to hold offline lectures with students. On 15th of September, there were 2 classes that were successfully held offline on that day. Both classes were taught by lecturers from Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (HUFS).
The first class was the Hallyu & Pop Culture course taught by Mr. Cho Young Han. This class was attended by several students from the class of 2021 and 2022 classes.
The second class was the Korean Language & Culture course taught by Mr. Lee Min Woo. This class was attended by several students from the class of 2020 & 2022. This class also collaborated with UPI, Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. However, due to Mr. Lee Min Woo’s time constraints in Indonesia, students from UPI took this class online.
By holding offline lectures again with the Korea Foundation, it proves that the UGM Korean program studies still maintain close relations with external parties, especially in the field of Korean language and culture education. Hopefully in the future the cooperation between the two can develop in a broader direction. (AWA, Thia/Personal Doc)
