Seoul Invites You! International Student Meetup at Gwanghwamun Plaza

About This Event

Kim's Community House hosted an exclusive afternoon at the Everyone's Companion Festival in Gwanghwamun Plaza — an outdoor market celebrating local Korean artisans and small businesses. We brought together international and exchange students from across Seoul for a shared afternoon of culture, food, and community.

Attendees explored the K-Made Market, browsed handcrafted goods from local vendors, caught live busking performances, and experienced traditional Korean games. Every participant received a free 20,000 KRW Starbucks coupon just for showing up. The day wrapped up with a group dinner and party.
