The “Wisdom Speaks Korean” programme, in collaboration with the Dream Centre Institute, offers a fully immersive experience that combines structured language instruction with practical cultural workshops. Participants will engage in activities that include learning the Korean language and script, alongside practical experiences that introduce them to various aspects of Korean culture, such as wearing traditional Hanbok, preparing Korean dishes, practising Taekwondo, exploring Minhwa painting, and participating in contemporary K-pop arts. Tailored for all age groups, the programme focuses on developing language skills through cultural engagement, helping participants connect more deeply with Korea’s heritage.
