Dear all,

 

To provide an opportunity for international students to understand Korean culture and to enhance friendships and networking among the KDI School members, the KDI School matches the families of Korean students, faculty, and staff (“host families”) with international students (“guests”).

 

Host families can introduce Korean culture and modern family life styles to international students and guest students may share and exchange their traditions with host families through this opportunity.

 

[Participants]

☆ Hosts : Korean Students, Alumni, Faculty and Staff of the KDI School & KDI

          (Further announcement will be made for the host families.)

☆ Guests: KDI School International Students (2~4 per Host Family)

          Those who leaving Korea after completion ceremony are not eligible to apply.

Guests are ONLY allowed to visit one host, not more than two hosts, since the subsidy will be provided only to ONE host.

 

 

[Activities]

☆ School encourages host families to provide overnight programs. However, activities may be substituted to a home cooked meal dinner or a one day sightseeing.

 

[Period]

☆Spring Break: May 5-May 12

       * Visiting period may be subject to change according to each host’s and guest’s schedule.
