ABOUT
Itaewon Global Village Center
Hello and welcome to the Itaewon Global Village Center Website !
​
Itaewon Global Village was established to help foreigners living in Seoul with any difficulties that they may face and to facilitate cultural understanding between foreigners and Koreans. With the number of foreigners residing in Korea, our goal is to help ex-pats live comfortably in Korea by providing services and programs that will help them adapt to Korean life and understand Korean culture. Our staff is ready to assist you with any problems you may have, no matter how big or small, and getting in touch with us can make your life in Seoul a lot easier and more enjoyable.
Our center is conveniently located right in the heart of Itaewon, a district that has attracted large numbers of foreigners, both residents, and tourists, for decades. It is also becoming an increasingly popular place for Koreans to come to try exotic foods from different countries or meet with foreigners from countries around the world, all without leaving Seoul. The Itaewon Global Village Center can help facilitate the growth of this area into a place where meaningful cultural exchange can take place and where foreign residents can learn more about each other to start building a stronger international community.
Foreign residents in Korea are welcome to join in our programs and events, and everyone is encouraged to visit our website often to keep informed about what is happening at our center and in the area. We also welcome any input you may have that can help us improve the services and programs we offer. Please feel free to drop by or contact us anytime.
Thank you for visiting our site!
