Welcome to the Gangnam Global Village Center's website, and thank you for your interest and support.
Opened on April 17, 2008, our center provides a wide range of services that help foreign residents enjoy Korean life. We offer customized online and in-person Korean language classes tailored to residents' needs, TOPIK preparation classes, Korean conversation groups for Koreans and foreign residents, and specialized programs covering health, safety, and culture. We also provide local and historical tours and counseling on daily life-related matters, while running the "PRIMERO VOICE" Global Choir, the "Learning Spanish Together" club, employment seminars with professionals, and Stage 5 (General/Advanced) of the Ministry of Justice's Korea Immigration and Integration Program (KIIP). In addition, our center serves as a networking platform by hosting events that bring Koreans and foreign residents together, including the "Global Chef" and "Human Library" programs, walking events, basketball tournaments, and cultural festivals, contributing to social integration in Korea.
With extensive experience and expertise, our staff are committed to helping foreign residents settle into life in Gangnam and build fulfilling lives in the city. We also pledge to remain a key hub where foreign residents can thrive in Gangnam and continue to play an important role in realizing Gangnam's vision for the future.
