Language group to hold Korean intro

Language exchange and community group Global Seoul Mates (GSM) will host a Korean workshop in southern Seoul, Sunday.

The focus of GSM is language exchange, culture exchange and social meet-ups.

“Our mission is to cultivate a global community resting on the principles of positivity, self-development, pro-activity, experiential learning, humanity and humor. Our content revolves around the topic of how best to learn language in the context of being an expat living in Seoul,” the group says on its website.

This is a chance to practice speaking Korean. Materials are designed to have attendees learn useful, relevant Korean phrases.

“You are matched with a native-Korean teacher and you are asked to memorize, speak and practice the target language with your teacher,” the group says.

One teacher will teach up to four students at one time.

This event is only for foreigners who want to learn Korean.

The cost is 10,000 won and includes a lesson, the following three hour language exchange and two drinks of your choice.

To get to the venue, leave Sinnonhyeon Station at exit 3. Turn 180 degrees. Walk straight on the main road for about two minutes. Turn right on the third street and walk straight. At the crossroads, on the right, there is “JUICY.” GSM TERRACE is on the 6th floor.
